  1. I'm thinking I made the right choice not to get the Youtube.tv sunday ticket. I can follow the game just fine on radio and then watch extensive highlights almost right after. This is the right place to be if the Lions are thriving. If the Lions were mediocre...still the right play. NFL Sunday Ticket is ridiculously expensive.
  2. 50% of the MAGA party voted against Ukraine aid in the last vote. ****burgers are showing their ****.
  3. Seeing strong pushback by authorities re: Iran involvement
  4. If he blabbed about Submarine tech...imagine what he'd blab about Iron Dome
  5. My non-amateur (but not guided by any actual official dispatches) analysis: Why now: This attack came at a time when Saudi and other gulf state oligarchs were doing a top-down effort to create peace in the ME. The US in political chaos over Tuberville and the lack of a Congressional leader creates the impression that US support for any of our allies is waivering. The best way to disrupt that if you are Iran is to drive an attack on Israel. Russia also certainly benefits from chaos in the Levant. The Leninist model of chaos-as-a-ladder. Possible Impact: Possible US conflict with Iran on the horizon. That is probably good for the Iranian regime (from their viewpoint). US MAGAs can further drive the "bunch a warmongers" storyline against the normies. Which provides relief for Russia in Ukraine. US could rally politically if normies in the House select a responsible Speaker as a stop gap during this time of chaos. If Mitch punishes Tuberville..all to the good.
  6. He could drive the impeachment of all his enemies from there. It would require more work than he is capable of though.
  7. I think this is true but I'm in a blue area bubble -- i.e., the suburbs of every city in the country.
  8. I think PJ Fleck would be annoying in a convention of bald guys wearing track suits and ties.
  9. Donovan Edwards is weird this year.
  10. on my Paxlovid day I sat on my deck staring into space. i looked at a nail stuck between two deck boards for the entire day thinking “i need to remove that”. Then the next day i actually had the gumption to pick it up.
  11. "We were somewhere around Pymouth-Canton on the edge of the suburbs when the drugs began to take hold. I remember saying something like "I feel a bit lightheaded; maybe you should drive...." And suddenly there was a terrible roar all around us and the sky was full of what looked like huge bats, all swooping and screeching and diving around the car, which was going about a hundred miles an hour with the top down to Ann Arbor.”
  12. BTW, there is a wonderful Hunter-S-Thompson-eque feel to this narrative.
  13. Paxlovid immediately upon testing. You will have a hangover day but then mend quickly
  14. Good point
  15. Sorry. missed the obvious... BB-64 USS WISCONSIN
  16. Was he subsequently arrested, let out on bail and returnd with the de-mothballed BB-61 USS IOWA?
  17. Reading the tweets from the Mel Tucker legal team. I hope he isn't paying very much for the written documents in this case.
  18. Can we get a Bernstein in the booth?
  19. Interesting story about one of the previous times when the Matt Gaetz' of the world got a civil war going Michigan wants Ionia County's Civil War flag for its collection. Ionia veterans have another plan (freep.com)
  20. So, Gaetz is about to get the hammer.
  21. He's a very sage voice on these broadcasts.
  22. I didn't mind CMO one bit. He was a gentleman with my mentally handicapped brother when he asked for a picture. Seemed like a good voice to have. Read that as ... yes Detroit is a predominantly african american city...maybe have a voice that reflects that in the booth.
