  1. Did the Detroit News endorse Tudor? Ok,
  2. seems like a lot of money
  3. https://twitter.com/joncoopertweets/status/1582784442284007424?s=46&t=XZvvgo6l_a0T8HHmpHQj6Q
  4. I think ND has a significant role as an avatar of a certain type of blue collar sports fan. You can dislike the totems of that like i do. That person is starting to slip away demographically as organized religion ebbs and flows. I used to enjoy having M as the representation of Enlightenment values play their dark ages values and see who came out ahead.
  5. its not a bad visual. She's an attractive lady. Crazy AF
  6. had this conversation earlier today with a fellow M fan. Assume for a second that northern intimidation of SEC and other elite southern schools may be damaging to CFB overall. That's a beginning premise to this. Assume also that CFB viewership of northern schools is very strong nationwide because so many people went to B1G and other schools and have strong emotional attachments. So, the argument was proposed to me back when the bad thing happened and App State beat Michigan that App State winning that game was "great for College Football" The game happened as the result of M's arrogance, lazy coaching, poor citizenship, lack of moral fiber and any number of other things that could have caused such a comeuppance and was not by design of anything more sinister than whatever gamblers might have been interested in the result (JK). Not a conspiracy in the sense of the Protocols of the learned elders of Heisman or anything like it. I propose after some reflection that Michigan going into the dumpster and ceding the B1G to OSU for a decade and a half with MSU raising its nose out of the burning couch fires enough to be relevant was not actually good for College Football. It meant that serious talent went or stayed South. It meant that the highly valued TV product of B1G football was devalued. While Clemson and Alabama and an occasional LSU/Auburn team would show up basically the game was stuck with a lot of sameness. Similarly, I think in this vein that CFB needs a strong and relevant Notre Dame which it does not have. This is already too long a post but you get the idea. That the sport needs strong "Blue State" college teams. Its better when USC is strong. Its better when ND and Michigan are throwing haymakers at each other that first couple weeks and the result isn't going to destroy the loser. Here is hoping that M can get to a point where it isn't ludicrous to think it could challenge for a natty.
  7. Huh. So, besides espionage they don't have much to do.
  8. this is good news
  9. All that is required for evil to triumph is for entitled douch canoes to be empowered.
  10. I wonder what the 3 percenters really mean if they were only 50-50 potty train percentage (PTP).
  11. At the end of the day the 30-40% of the US that believes that globalism is the result of alliances are susceptible to propaganda that stresses that only strong leaders who slaughter hundreds of thousands are our bulwarks against the anti-Christ who will bring the end times. In other words, we have a lot of people who are fucked in the head and lack discernment.
  12. Another great take from April
  13. Another couple takes on the matter. Peter Thiel is the scum of the Earth
  14. We left Afghanistan because we needed to bolster our functional alliances to protect Europe and East Asia
  15. Glenn Greenwald is a Russian agent. I don't take anything he says with any seriousness. I'm merely asking...what would the rational argument be that he's making that people would believe who were not already in the Russian camp?
  16. Like what is his point? Putin should get to keep Ukraine?
  17. Elon Musk should STFU
  18. Joel Klatt has seen enough. He's got Stockholm Syndrome from his time as captive of Michigan. :--)
  19. I think Romney hasn't gotten over the attempt to murder Romney
  20. Stephen Colbert dished on the Tudor Dixon ad made by the Gratiot County GOP. A party committee which apparently comprises the local "Hells Funyons" chapter. "Graham Died Alone"
  21. Relived with a co-worker who is a M fan. Joel Klatt: "What up, doh"
