All the live-in home health aides who took care of my mother for eight years were immigrants - mostly from Kenya, one from Haiti. I fully trusted them to live in my house and take care of my mom.

I was in the Vikings forum and one person’s reaction to the Smith trade was the rich got richer. Just step back to think about that. Never in the Super Bowl era have the Lions been considered the rich.

This will be my glass of choice today, whether it’s filled with iced coffee, water, wine, or some heretofore unmentioned concoction.

It took a little more time voting this morning due to not checking a straight Democratic ticket. Even though the position doesn’t matter, there was absolutely no way that I was casting a vote for Denise Ilitch as UM Trustee. When the family chooses to step up and invest back in the teams they are essentially holding hostage, I will choose to support them again.

People who are proud of not voting usually bluff their way through life with attitude and confidence because that’s all they know and they think they’re above it all. Nothing can ever please them or propel them out of their bunker of conceit. Attitude and confidence are the two most easily available elements in the human universe. Everywhere from boardrooms and back alleys to battlefields is littered with the debris caused by attitude and confidence.

On another note, hopefully the right wing ads I'm seeing on this page will go away too.

drink the martini through a straw ! I go to the movies on election night. Have done this since 2008 and the one time it went sideways (2016) I did not go to the movies. Trying to figure out what to go see. Slim pickins movie-wise. That movie Here with de-aged Tom Hanks and Robin Wright looks awful. Maybe Conclave?

this is just a reminder of how bad monty williams was last year.

If Harris wins this election I'll wager an internet beer that X is up for sale by inaugauration day

My god, it actually worked for a change today

In flight?

Signs from yesterday's New York City Marathon.

And..... we're off!

Random thought; ever since abortion went on the ballot in Michigan, the Lions have been the best team in the NFL.

As warped as it sounds, there may be T voters who think they're saving democracy, too.

What kind of cretins are you hanging out with that purposely don’t carry ID. That first sign of a bad seed, the second being they own burglary tools and you can find a ski mask in their car in June.

Rich Eisen starting at the 48s mark: "I've never said this before. I don't think I've said this in my entire life. I don't know how many people in their lives in the great state of Michigan have said this. But the Detroit Lions are the best team in the National Football League.. the Lions aren't just beating up on people, they're putting them in the fetal position. They are exactly what Dan Campbell set out for the Lions to be".

You love to see these wads panic

MAGA is worried.

Wow, a rookie said that? Is that real? Wow. And **** people who don't vote. Colin Kaepernick being one of them. Nobody said you have to vote for those two people running for President, and there are plenty of other things to vote on too. But I guess when you are rich as hell, you will thrive no matter what. Non-voters annoy me. Do you know how lucky you are to have that power? Do you know how many people in other countries suffer because they don't have that right? Another reason to hate Daniel Jones. It used to be because he went to Duke, but it's so much more now too.

I don’t know if this is satire, but I lol’d

Yeah Campbell for sure wouldn't have called that last timeout right away when they got to the 1. I think Bowles completely panicked there for some reason.

I don’t trust the source, but I wouldn’t mind bringing a Granderson to Detroit.

Where's the driveway report when we need one?

and let's be real, most of that was probably laundered from russian oil proceeds.

Not having one's wife or daughter die from a difficult pregnancy seems up there...

Turnout is up in Philadelphia, Dem turnout looks great in Clark County, and women continue to outpace men in Michigan.

Campbell likes to ease players in. I’m guessing he won’t get starter level snaps.

“But I also want to be clear. Anybody who thinks it’s time to play militia: Eff around and find out,” he continued. “Anybody who thinks it’s time to insult, to deride, to mistreat, to threaten people: Eff around and find out. We do have the cuffs, we do have the jail cells, we do have the Philly juries and we have the state prisons.”

We will see come playoff time. But early results so far in Cleveland? Yes, coaching still matters in the NBA. Even in the regular season.

Yeah I think we've seen over the last few games that we haven't gotten a lot of pressure on the QB and we need to hArden that defensive line up. Our secondary isn't bad but give any receiver/QB all day to throw and they'll eventually get someone open. More pressure will be a Key moving forward.

If they add someone like Arden Key, that defensive line suddenly looks pretty solid.

Holmes is the best GM in the league. He called Cleveland's bluff on giving up the higher pick (if rumors are to be believed) and held steadfast on this offer while his team continues to pile up W's and Cleveland blinked. What a stud. Now I wonder if the Lions are even done. They still have the good picks, outside of their 3rd of course.

Seems weird to have Mahorn as one of the only fiveplayers on a memo for the back to back since he was only around for the back and not the back.

I would like them to do another low key move. *hint*

Because this day somehow isn’t going to be painful enough, I’m going for a dental appointment to have a tooth filled, which will involve numbing that side of my face. Then I’m supposed to meet a friend late afternoon - will we want to find a local bar that’s gonna make us some pumpkin martinis. My hope is that my face isn’t numb anymore ( drooling isn’t a great look), but my bigger hope is that they don’t have the stupid bar TV turn to any political station. We’ll catch up on family /friend bull****, then I’ll go home and make some of my own concoctions for the rest of the night, and watch something mindless. I don’t think I’m gonna turn anything political on until maybe 1 o’clock in the morning right before try to fall asleep; and, I’m supposing falling asleep is going to depend on what I’m hearing.

Young guys leaning how to close out a game, nice to see. If Holland ever developed a three he'd be a really good player because he's fearless and has a relentless motor.

The US is not a banana republic quite yet. Trump doesn't control enough of the media. If he starts claiming victory before any non-Fox media call it it's not going to be taken seriously He'd literally have to come out and incite to riot to try to stop the counting to make a impact, and I don't see that working even if he tried. And if he did Biden would be glad to have him arrested. Plus the group of hard core dead enders that were most likely to have responded are still in jail over 1/6.

Impressed with Cade. Shot want falling tonight and he still found ways to help the team win. Triple double and I thought he played decent defense all night.

This is honestly so disrespectful of Holmes. I keep hitting F5 and still nothing done. Doesn't he know that I won't be able to get a good nights sleep like this??

not really buying it. Clicks.........Views........Fear..........Click this. They're scaring the hell out of my Mom. She's 83, I would love to see her witness a female President. What that would mean to her.

He's probably got some investors in X that are hopeful this is true.
