  1. I strongly suspect if the Chinese invade Taiwan we won't be buying their crap for a while.
  2. Funny story about Apple not being allowed for Chinese government anymore.
  3. Not to get heavy with you and go high road...I have plenty of Chinese crap myself..... Now imagine that those tools were made by IG Farben in 1944 in Auschwitz. Glad you got a deal on them.
  4. In a lot of latin American countries they have something called the Chinese Mall for purchasing crap. People buy what they consider to be sufficient tools from Harbor Freight all the time.
  5. They got really really somber after the shooting. A lot of life was drained from the place. Per the son who is currently attending. The hate machine might be lacking a fourth gear.
  6. This reminds me of the celebration at Comerica Park in 2006 after the Tigers beat the Yankees in the ALDS
  7. Holy crap! Pete Davidson's monologue re: the Gaza attacks was really good.
  8. Reasonable. A couple of things make the Russia watchers think its actually a concern for Vladdie. The first is the antecedent of the Soviet war in Afghanistan which played a significant role in the downfall of the Soviet Union. The other is that he is actually manipulating mobilization to avoid big pulls from the two big metros of St Pete and Moscow specifically to avoid having those two populations impacted. Russia's organizational military DNA is shambolic and chaotic only overcome by sending masses of men into the fray at huge costs. But, they do have breaking points. They did in WWI. The disasters can be put off by controlling the media narrative but social media appears to be much more open in post-Soviet Russia -- they run Telegram for example -- that people like Navalny have a relatively easy reach into the homes of the switched-on urban types. The last item is the example of Prigozhin. His people are out there and angry about the casualties, the MOD's craptacular running of the War.
  9. The timeout at the end of the 1st half was a work of genius. Reminded me of some slapstick events in the early Harbaugh years.
  10. ND isn't that good either.
  11. This team is in a place where it can worry about TDs for the second string RB and getting a TD for the transfer QB over his previous team. That's an issue of the B1G West being sorry more than anything.
  12. So, you guys done bitching about Michigan?
  13. So, 21-7 in the muck feels like a bad half of football. Ok, Michigan has changed for the better.
  14. Need to run the ball
  15. oh we get to watch fox news commercials…jesus
  16. Unfortunately, until this actually impacts the parents of boys from Moscow and St Petersburg, this will continue
  17. Scalise out. Too racist for the party of Hizballah.
  18. So, I guess this is also very related. A bunch of godless hippies want to presume to tell the good godfearing uneducated marks out there that the Constitution -- which they and their Orange Godking otherwise do not support -- contains this garbage about no religious tests.
  19. And if the highest Constitutional established co-equal branch doesn't have an obligation to support I guess it was always hanging by a thread. But whatever, he was good on TV and he shakes things up in Warsheengtun.
  20. Sheesh...we were all fooled
  21. So, racist Scalise is better or worse than Maga wrastlin' guy? Nancy Mace is just trying to position herself at Trump's knee with a wet washcloth at the ready.
  22. I don't think we disagree that much. I'm feeling good about Brad Holmes' ability to navigate these things. I'm just paranoid that something will go wrong: Joel Zumaya flipping a quad; Erik Andolsek being killed; a limo crash with our Russian defenseman; David Ortiz knocking Torii Hunter over a wall.
  23. addition by subtraction?
  24. Most relevant was he got his hits on the predator with the SAW (?)
