Pioneer Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 The question, then, is will the Ford family-controlled Ford Motor Co. be more successful than the family's pathetic football team? I sure hope so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickF1011 Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 Why would anyone bother mentioning the football team in the same breath as the motor company? Something tells me most professional sports franchise owners wouldn't know the first thing about running a car company. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And, the owner of the Lions doesn't know anything about running a football team either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ron W. Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 (edited) Why would anyone bother mentioning the football team in the same breath as the motor company? A rhetorical question? Ford motor company - Ford family At least they didn't associate the football teams management with Ford motor companys management. well except the "The question, then, is will the Ford family-controlled Ford Motor Co. be more successful than the family's pathetic football team?"

Noah Harbinger Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 I think it's vastly unfair to compare their blue-sky electric car/fuel cell research in the late 90s with fully-developed products that will be in showrooms in less than 6 months.

RichardJensen Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 Same family. So, let me guess, it's okay for me to evaluate your qualifications as an electrician based on your dad's ability to grow tomatoes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd sure hope so, since that same family makes lots more money with the Motor company then they do with a pathetic Football team Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My dad's a diemaker, so please don't judge me by ANYTHING he does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
