I would say the franchise has a deficit of championships for our history. Not as bad as Cleveland or as agonizing as the Lions draught but still...come on, lets get another.

would love it if Broncos could steal that one. Too many family in Buffalo area to want them with skin in the game if Lions are in SB.

Did a family trip to the area this Summer. Crossed the Bridge everyday from the gilded suburbs by Muir Woods NP where the wife picked out an insanely awesome VRBO house. I can definitely see the appeal if you have cash. We were mystified by the economy of the boutique town of Mill Valley. I would put our drive down to Monterrey and back on the PCH as a bucket-list quality drive. Because this is a great album and a great drive combined: enjoy

If I had a chance to spend a meaningful part of my career in the bay area I'd give it a go. Nice place. Texas is its own weird thing; Michigan gives you the amazing summers and the bizonkers fans; New York was probably a fun stint especially with Kate's modeling world. But, yeah...if I had a choice I'd at least give the Bay area a brief prolonged stay.

Jim Thome also prob in his nightmares.

I do not know what the context of your post is since the original material is on ignore...but this amuses me

I'm relieved that Carlos Monnorez picked against the Lions to win SB. He has a track record of being a bad picker.

You never know what is going to knock you out of consideration for a gig. If Harris and Hinch (and Fetter?) all knew JV and knew their own clubhouse, you'd have to ask why he didn't pursue. Or, is it that JV felt that was a time in his life he wanted to move on from. Maybe there was a particularly mean kid on the leafy streets of Birmingham or Gross Isle that JV was bullied by?

He went to UNLV, he must be Mormon.

Joyce White Vance ‪@joycewhitevance.bsky.social‬ A sharp-eyed reader of my newsletter alerted me to this possible catastrophe—PACER, the fed'l courts' online filing system, will be down for maintenance tomorrow of all days!

Some subtext from the Austin Jackson appearance on the Tiger Territory podcast was that JV could be a difficult teammate. They were indicating possible clubhouse dynamics questions.

I don't believe my wife would ever repeat MAGA propaganda. I have clarified her understanding as: "he couldn't wait to vote against Trump, can't believe he would want him there" so really no actual sourcing.

Is it true Carter did not want Trump at the funeral but the protocols required he be invited? I had heard that in passing from the wife but can't find any source.

Sentencing Trump is the Michigan-beating-OSU-on-OSU's-path-to-a-Natty of politics in the 2020s. Satisfying, necessary but ultimately of less importance after 1/21.

This is really an incredible story https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pizzagate_conspiracy_theory https://www.nytimes.com/2016/12/07/us/edgar-welch-comet-pizza-fake-news.html Think of all the people who propagated the lies that propelled this otherwise regular human to his death.

Ok, so Judge Cannon, aka person-anticipating-quid-pro-quo-job-in-next-administration, block on this can only last until Sunday. None of this matters except for History. Trump will do 5 things that would get all preceding presidents impeached by February.

Dead on.

Works for me. https://bsky.app/profile/joshuajfriedman.com/post/3lfdw4nifjc2z Joshua J. Friedman ‪@joshuajfriedman.com‬ 5–4, with Thomas, Alito, Gorsuch, and Kavanaugh in dissent.

Trump probably too busy dunking on Los Angeles
