  1. Not my district, but she'll be tough to replace
  2. Re: the interception. There is some thought the ball may have been tipped. I'm not seeing it, but it does seem to move a bit at the last second. If Gibbs had been about a half second slower.... https://x.com/DetroitOnLion/status/1703589179366441257?s=20
  3. I just watched the video again. Outside of the horrible beautiful music soundtrack. Trump sounds old, tired, no energy whatsoever. I guess time travel will do that to you.
  4. Sacrifice a goat at The Corner. Then donate it to Slows
  5. Also the start of National Hispanic Heritage Month. Were Miggy and Javy at one time Clemente Award winners or nominees? https://www.mlb.com/news/roberto-clemente-day-mlb-2023#:~:text=MLB established Roberto Clemente Day,of National Hispanic Heritage Month. second edit. Miggy is one of the nominees this year
  6. It seems like the Party of Trump is like the cast of Little Shop of Horrors. Any seemingly sane Republican (Romney, Chaney, etc) are Seymore. (I wish I could remember where I saw this, but in that scenario the Speaker of the House ran the Flower Shop)
  7. i wonder if Bronco Mendenhall is ready to get back into coaching. At least on a temporary basis. He might be a good choice in the short run
  8. I agree it was Palin. I don't think she was ever properly vetted. She had that Mama Grizzly thing and being female was thought to help McCain against Obama. Once she hit the trail the self entitlement, me first, grifter thing came out. She hurt McCain's chances in the long run (his actions during the banking meltdown didn't help) But the current section of the party that became Trumpers loved her.
  9. True, Trump would/will never admit guilt. After all it’s hard to be humble (and truthful) when you expect everything to be handed to you on a gilded platter
  10. I think that's a big part of the equation. In a perfect world where DJT was disqualified from running for whatever reason I could see Biden step aside and possibly endorse a Klobuchar/Buttigeig ticket. They were the two candidates who stepped aside in 2020 to finally clear the way for Biden. Give Harris a prominent role in the cabinet. Not my idea but one I heard recently on the former Thomas Jefferson Hour podcast . Once again in a perfect world in that galaxy far far away Biden would offer to pardon Trump if he voluntarily drops out of the race. in return Biden would do the same. But alas, it's not 1974...
  11. How fast are charging stations becoming mainstream? I don’t remember seeing any at state run rest stops in Virginia, Ohio, or even the Welcome Center on I-75 in Michigan. Hotels seem to be slow about adding them as well. I don’t remember seeing any this week at the “convention” parking lots in Grand Rapids this week. I know DTW has a few. I’m not sure on the policy for travelers who use them on a long term basis. Do they turn their keys over to someone to move their car while they’re in Florida or wherever
  12. The crybaby is on a tear again. Very presidential sounding... And I call bull**** on the campaign disclaimer. We all know where this came from
  13. Is that grass at Soldier Toilet or did someone call 1-800-Empire.. Looks as ugly as the teams
  14. We haven't had a good Dad Joke in a while At a funeral a man says to the widow, "Mind if a say a word?" "Not at all,” she says, “please do." He stands up, clears his throat, and says, "Comprehensive," then sits down. She responds in tears, "Thank you. That means everything."
  15. I think I've just found the Tigers next TV PBP guy
  16. BTW back in the day many of the "trouble makers" found their way to a couple of nearby "Military" Academies.. for better or worse.
  17. My wife was living in Norfolk, Va during the integration battles of the late 60s. He parents considered sending her to live with relatives in Pennsylvania rather than go to an integrated school. I was in a SW Virginia county during the early years. Surprisingly things seemed to go smoothly. We moved to the city of Roanoke the Spring of 1968, it was still early in the process as the "black" high school was still operating but the transition was underway. Heard lots of noise about protests and potential fights, but nothing developed the two years I was there and the process was completed.
  18. Do they still qualify for tax exempt status yet receive state and/or federal funding?That's always been one of my political peeves. The money that goes there takes away from those who can't afford private tuitions, yet waters down the level of scholarship in many, if not most, public school districts. Granted it might create a two tiered system (haves in private, have nots in public) but why should I help fund a church supported school that already receives numerous tax breaks?
  19. The last time my wife flew she brought COVID home with her. It was the first day of Spring Break and DTW was an absolute zoo. She has one of those dreaded trips this week. A last minute invitation to speak at a conference in Boise ID Friday. We’re going to be in Durham Thursday morning for a doctors appointment, I’ll drive home after dropping her off at RDU, then meet her plane in Detroit Saturday before driving to another conference in Grand Rapids that begins Sunday. Back home at the end of the week. A lot of driving for me, but it beats her trying to rent a car in Detroit and another flight back to Richmond. With her luck she’ll catch something on the plane, the dog will come down with Kennel Cough and I’ll work up a nasty case off driver’ toe
  20. Probably about the same as the chances of Biden having a bicycle collision and Trump choking on a piece of over done steak
