  1. Maybe Kanye could run for the seat.
  2. You can see it here as a matter of fact. Having coached some good fastpitch softball players in my day...if you see this look, you either have a gamer or a girl who needs therapy or both.
  3. My wife and I will laugh when we are looking at Zillow on the appletv and see a feature deliberately shown in long view to obscure imperfections with a "What a hitter!"
  4. The absolute fury that Lori Petty has when she's competing against her sister and her own demons, particularly in the final game is pretty great. My wife hates Lori Petty for reasons i don't understand but I can absolutely salute the look in Petty's eyes in those scenes
  5. Some amazing stuff in that Vance article. Ed Martin loves him some Hitler. He's also really, really, really bad at his job.
  6. This is getting interesting. If he can't get this kookoo bird confirmed that bodes well for the Senate stiffening its spine.
  7. Opens the door for Margorie Taylor Green run. Hope she tries.
  8. My question is: does the perfect university president for U-M exist? A guy who balances the sports madness with the social advocacy and/or academic integrity focus of the average graduate student. You can't be: the dean from "Revenge of the Nerds" who finally stands up to the mean football coach Dean Wormer who finally goes to war with the rowdy greek community (in service to the local mafia boss) tbf, this isn't really a thing but I figured I'd include this archetype. a dean who costs Michigan all of its research funding by failing to thread the needle with the current administration (which may or may not have cost significant political capital for Gov Whitmer in her effort to secure Selfridge ANGB) someone who fails to check the box for the school's social justice role
  9. Man....its almost as If I had a head injury this morning. I will also say that if anyone hasn't given love to "9 Men Out"* then you are missing a good baseball yarn. It stars Cyril Cusak, and Emilio Estevez is in it. *i did that deliberately
  10. I had an alcatraz tour last summer. It didn't impress me as a place where you could put as many inmates as Trump would want to. Supermax has a better warehousing for inmates capability. I see per a quick google that the correct name for this federal supermax facility is ADX Florence in Florence, Colorado.
  11. Weird how 75% didn't vote for it.
  12. Since only Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania matter anymore...do you think he would be confident enough that he could win these states against Obama?
  13. SO, because it is an off day I'm going to share the glove I designed and ordered for myself on Rico Gloves website as part of my winning an auction at my softball program's spring celebration. I chose the livery aka color scheme from the TACP beret flash which combines blue for the Air Force, Green for the Army units we support and red for the firepower we coordinate. My son called the glove heinous. Before too long it will be covered in dirt and unrecognizable.
  14. who had more votes
  15. The thing keeping him from running again (unconstitutionally) in 2028 is the idea that Obama would run and destroy him. And I for one never voted for Obama but would push this narrative so the orange fool would back away from his native cowardice.
  16. Bang the Drum Slowly is quite good. For the Love of the Game is a personal favorite for when the Tigers are bad.
  17. correct...it is an all time favorite. I mangled that CJ was a suicide. Denzel Washington was sort of a stand-in for the earlier, Jackie Robinson who got court martialed and was more of a hot-head than he was when he became a MLB color-barrier breaker. Adolph Caeser was damn good in that role.
  18. OLD METRIC WARNING: he's 1-4 with an ERA of almost 4! that's weak sauce on this team.
  19. the Browns got Shedeur Sanders and therefore an A+ which is something.
  20. Michigan and all research-heavy universities are looking at a hard future.
  21. In the Terry Moran interview regarding the tatoos. I was reminded of Will Ferrrel's Harry Carey skit on SNL where he implores Jeff Goldblum's character to tell him if he would eat the moon if it were made of bbq spare ribs.
  22. That Jack Flaherty is the weak spot in our rotation...is a weird story. Do the god botherers on the team not like that all the gays on social media think he's dreamy?
  23. Lots of innovation is going to come out of Europe in the next 4 years. Oh well, the slack-jawed yokels will enjoy the librul tears.
  24. Underrated "B" movie about baseball is the HBO movie "Long Gone" with William Pederson, Dermot Mulroney and Virginia Madsen. Also features Lary Riley who was notable as being the baseball playing murder victim in the film version of "A Soldiers Story". It also features William Gibson and Teller (from Penn and Teller) as the owners of the minor league team. It has substantially a similar plot to "The Natural" combined with "Bull Durham" where you have an aging ball player considering his end-of-career options and a game fixing scheme he needs to play along with. As usual with baseball movies the light wins out over the darkness, because that's baseball man.
  25. Former National Security Advisor HR McMaster on CBS just blamed Obama for Rubio and JD Vance supporting the Nazi Afd party in Germany. Auditioning for the job?
