A phase in life that remains difficult for me to say goodbye to well into the present day, and well into the future; is the phase in both mine and my parents’ lives where we had Full-Size Station Wagons, Suburbans, Volkswagens/Audis, other European Cars of German, French, and Italian origin; we were closer to my father’s family than my mother’s, my parents had inundated me with Electric Fans, and we almost bought a sizable House on acres of property.
In part and parcel, WJBK-TV being a CBS Television affiliate; and being owned and operated by Storer Broadcasting is also a “phase” that will always and forever be hard to say goodbye to.
Yet another ‘phase’ that is hard to say goodbye to is NASCAR’s ways prior to the 21st Century, where NASCAR never tried to be as appealing to the average younger person as Basketball, American Football, Association Football/Soccer, Baseball, and Hockey; Stick and Ball Sports and Fitness weren’t ever in NASCAR’s mix, and NASCAR Drivers and members of Pit Crews were nothing more than regular Car guys.
Likewise to WJBK-TV becoming a FOX affiliate, my parents owning Minivans and Crossover Utility Vehicles such as the Pontiac Aztek and the Buick Rendezvous, and my parents becoming closer to my mother’s family than my father’s; I’ve unequivocally had and continue to have absolutely zero tolerance for NASCAR, since the 21st Century; trying to be as appealing to the average younger person as Basketball, American Football, Association Football/Soccer, Baseball, and Hockey; and modern NASCAR drivers being traditional stick-and-ball athletes turned Stock Car drivers because they had never made the cut as a traditional stick-and-ball athlete, and being a Racing Car driver was the only other thing they had trained to do or else they would have to enter an entirely new and different line of work.
