Perhaps the big difference is we want people who commit serious felonies to be jailed whether they're migrants or not, and MAGA wants (certain) immigrants to be jailed and deported whether they've committed felonies or not.

MAGA doesn't seem to understand that Democrats also want undocumented migrants who commit serious felonies jailed and deported. But when that ignorant Orange Cheeto talks about "Joe Biden allowing illegals to come pouring into our country?" He's gaslighting his base. Joe Biden had a bipartisan group draw up a very good border bill that Trump had his MAGA base vote down because Donny Boy wanted to use immigration as a campaign issue. People seem to forget that fact. This entire immigration problem is 100% the fault of Donald J. Trump

One of the things I love about soccer broadcasts is that there are no commercial breaks during each entire half, and very few other on-screen ads or mentions. By contrast, the more frequent commercial interruptions during baseball games, including RSN crawls, bumpers, billboards, drop-ins, play sponsorships, betting odds, and between-batter commercials, has made our favorite sport that much less pleasant a viewing experience. You really notice it whenever you view a game from 50 or 40 or even 25 years ago on YouTube.

Ice wouldn't need masks if they conducted themselves like other agencies. It's clear they are Trump's hired thugs. It's not about illegal immigrants. It's about ending democracy and putting a crown on Trump's head. Then his toupee won't fly off.

I already saw the original Melania movie;

It is INSANE that the President of the United States regularly posting demonstrably false information on social media has become completely normalized.

That really sucks because NAW would fix, at least in part, a lot of our current deficiencies (range, secondary ball-handling, plays "D" unlike LeVert...).

And the problem this administration has and was always going to have is the ones that need to be jailed or deported have lots of practice evading law enforcement.

Yes. Another "commander" invading Stalingrad in the winter. 😉

Montgomery may want to go elsewhere though an be an RB1. We are fortunate and spoiled to have two good RBs here in Detroit. On some rosters, Monty would clearly be their RB1. So he may just want to leave and go get RB1 money. Given his age at 28 and the short shelf life of RBs, this is likely is last opportunity at getting starting money in a contract.

I think most sports are boring if you don't follow the sport closely and don't know much about it and that definitely includes baseball. If they made Manfred the soccer commissioner, he would change the rules so they could use their hands to increase scoring.

Really like Daniel Bellinger as a free agent. He has connections to Kafka, is a good blocker, and has great hands. Makes a lot of sense for TE2.

i liked steve dangle's piece on "can someone pkease get berube a hat? please?"

the only scenario would be for bench scoring.

"Just following order"...said the Nazis.

The Democrats should play hardball. Refuse to fund the government until they get ICE out of every American city. Arrest ONLY migrants who commit felonies. Insist every BPA wear body cameras, no masks and have visible ID. No more arrests without warrants, no more home invasions without legitimate warrants. And then move on to health care subsidies. Reinstate them so the health care system doesn't collapse. And then move on to the Epstein Files, that were supposed to be released in December. Release them now or impeach Pam Bondi. Play hardball with this facist administration. Defeat them going into the midterms.. I know this won't happen but if that Head Cheeto wants to call Democrats radicals? Go ahead and go full radical. Its better than this facist regime.

Mostly agree. 1 needs to be even more specific and demand a stop to ALL ICE/CBP takeover of cities, including Minneapolis. No ifs, ands or buts. 5 is to me especially important. I really think it needs to be put higher on the list. Incidentally, Homan is referring to Minneapolis as 'theater.' Isn't that a term used for war?

It confuses me why some Pistons fans want DeRozen. Team lacks shooting, so let's bring in a guy that doesn't shoot the three? On top of that, Cade is great in the mid-range. So let's bring in another mid-range guy to crowd that space for Cade? It doesn't make much sense to me.

Nailed it

Sadly, we do have our racists and Nazis here. We're barely a generation away from the race riots that happened in response to bussing kids, after all. And remember the picture of the SB guy who threatened a Black man with an American flag? That man is still alive and still living in Massachusetts.

Yup. It's what's left of the Combat Zone. It's still the Theater District, so plenty of entertainment around that's actually, well, entertaining...

He thinks it does. That’s alarming

My opinion, Belichick was a tool so my memory seems to say. I recall clips of him being an ass in responding to questions, short answers laced with what looked like a 'tough guy, that's a stupid question' attitude. This is his punishment and people are using Brady's GOAT status as their crutch for minimizing Belichick's success.

The R2 is what they are banking on. 300 mile range 5 seater. https://rivian.com/r2

Rivian almost went under but now have a 5 Billion loan/investment from VW. If they don't turn a profit in 26 they might be done.

And yet because Fox News celebrates cops and firefighters and puts the American flag on as its background colors people will listen somnolently to its every utterance about this regime.

“As far back as I can remember, I always wanted to be a gangster.”

Everyone of those people have been warned. Had been warned. They had heard Trump telling police chiefs to "not be too nice" and they had heard about him wanting to massacre people during BLM and his advisors having to stop him. And they sure as f knew about Jan 6.

I won't blame him for enabling fascist authoritarianism in America—it took millions and machinery to get us to that point—but I will blame anyone to the degree that they approve the public murders of people by shadowy militia figures employed by the government for doing nothing more than nothing wrong.

January 285h of his second season. That is how long it took Bronny James to accumulate 100 total points.

That would be a pretty amazing deadline.

Congrats to CP3.

The bulls just lost to the pacers for the THIRD TIME THIS SEASON.

So, that justifies government hired thugs shooting him in the face 10 times while he is lying on his back. That is sick. Now I temember why I left this forum. I hear enough of those kinds of sick disgusting opinions in real life.

Was just thinking about how we could be the third team in the Giannis to Miami trade and come out of the deal with Powell and Portis. Powell is a rental, so that should lower his price a bit even though he's having a nice season.

Nope. Im deleting it manually in the quote.

we might actually achieve 84's dream of seeing william wallinder next season.

Two legends going "neck and neck" from 4:15 to 4:50

This just tells me you know nothing about soccer...

Smart move surrounding your pro bowl QB with an offensive guy.

Mid Summer Sunday day game, Billy was probably too hung over to care what he was doing.

religion? do you think they asked if they were practicing or not in the roundups in Germany or Armenia or Rwanda? The fascists don't care about what your religion is or whether you practice it, and the American Christian right wingers don't care what you are either if you are anything outside their own cult (theirs being one of the most excluding theologies out there). Religion is never more than a convenient construct to define what groups will be the targets for redirecting the anger of the masses in a failing society. It's all about picking a target that is easy to identify, the 'why' of that identification is purely incidental. All that matters is that there is an elite who needs to deflect from their own corruption and greed, an intellectually lazy or economically exhausted mass who'd rather not be reminded about their own failures, and a set of identifiable targets the elites can persuade the masses are the cause of their problems. Religion never matters in and of itself. It's nothing more than the sieve.

Point is that being Jewish quislings helping the Nazi regime early on didn’t help them survive. To the fascists, your worth starts with your bloodline. After that, your actions can put you on the outs, but without the proper bloodline, nothing puts you on the inside, no matter how loud or proud or Trumpy your words or actions might be. We have all seen how Trump himself turned on people who initially tried to appease him with their Trumpiness, but had the temerity to share one rogue word or action. Also, remember this: America is the home of the one-drop rule. Not even the German Nazis did that. So no matter how far they go back, they find even a drop of “bad” in your bloodline, you’re out.

- Institute a hard salary cap for competitiveness. No defferred payments. Owners and Players association get a vote and the Commissioner acts as an arbiter. Cap goes up 5% each year. (Owners win - Their biggest ask by far) - Free agency though, comes to players after 6 years of being drafted or originally signed. No more Qualifying offer allowed. (Drastically speeds up process of reaching Free Agency) (Players win) - Salary floor being 40% of the Salary Cap. So example: if Cap is $400 million, the floor is $160 million. (Players win) - Allow Private Equity groups to buy into MLB Franchises (Helps if owners can't afford the minimum salary floor. They should probably sell their team then anyway.) (Owners win) - Eliminate draft pool amounts, but put a floor of draft pool. Something like $8 million. (Players Win) - Greatly increase league minimum to let's say $250,000. (Players win) - 15% of all MLB revenue profit, is put into a pension fund for players. Tiered system based off players time (Players win) - Owners get 20% of all marketing money made by players under their team's logo (Owners win [NIL anyone]) - Create an International Free Agent draft (Owners win) - Allow contracts to be performance based instead of guaranteed in addition to guaranteed contracts (either or); Example: A player has OBP over .350 they get 5 million salary, over .360 is 6 million salary and for each home run is $500,000. (Both Owner and Player win as Owners pay for production and players can bet on themselves if they choose to do so). _______________________________________________________ Just a couple of thoughts there to get started.
