     It felt as if I traveled back in time the moment I stepped inside Greenfield Village.  Many people dressed up for the occasion, and the Old Cars were allowed to travel throughout the village.  The Old Cars were organized according to their year, and signs in the windows correctly labeled information about each vehicle.  Be sure to check out exclusive photos from this years "Old Car Festival" at Greenfield Village!

NBA All-Time Playoffs! 3rd Rnd.






Scroll down and vote in the NBA All-Time Playoffs!











     It began on May 4, 2014.  Some of the best teams in the history of the NBA (National Basketball Association) were seeded according to their records for their respective seasons, and placed in a Playoff bracket for fans to vote on.
     In the 1st Round of the NBA All-Time Playoffs Jalen Rose, and the 2000 Pacers weren't fabulous enough to get past the 1996 Bulls.  Clyde Drexler, and the 1990 Trail Blazers couldn't glide over the 1997 Jazz, and Gary Payton, and the 1996 Sonics weren't super enough to get around the 1994 Houston Rockets.
     Karl Malone couldn't deliver a series win over the 1994 Rockets in the second round, and Houston became the Cinderella story of the NBA All-Time Playoffs.  Dennis Rodman, John Salley, and James Edwards increased their chances of advancing by joining both rosters in the '96' Bulls vs. '89' Pistons series, and your votes advanced the '96' Bulls into the Conference Finals.
     Scroll down and check out the progress of the NBA All-Time Playoffs!  Who will win it all?  Will the 1987 Lakers be worthy of the NBA All-Time Title, or will "Air" Jordan, and the 1996 Bulls soar high above the competition?  Scroll down and vote!
