Actually, Bill Clinton changed all that. I mean, if you remember it was gotcha, after gotcha, after gotcha and it STRENGTHENED him. It was incredible. Never saw anyone bat away so many scandals and just keep on truckin' (until Trump). Maybe it's the underdog factor Funny thing is that Trump got 34 felonies for something he never needed to do. His cheating wouldn't have mattered one bit with voters. Honestly, I don't give a crap how someone lives their personal life. Someone wants to cheat on their spouse, the only question I have is Does it affect their job? Sure, it makes them blackmailable, but he got 34 strikes for something that his voters don't care about. Nobody politicked better than Bill Clinton. He was a master at it. It's a natural gift. If Hillary at 1/10% of that, she'd have been the first Madame President. Trump is different. It's not politicking it's good it, it's Archie Bunkering that he's good at and some people love that. They tend to be garbage, but hope some of y'all's confidence is well-placed. As far as the MSG rally. That's the October surprise, but I have to ask. "You're surprised that this bunch is racist? Where ya been since the Civil Rights movement?"

I wish I had your confidence. 2016 has us all shaken, but you know what - the young vote was not enamored with Hillary and we had no real fear of Roe v Wade being overturned. But I do remember someone, either George Will or Bill Kristol saying overturning Roe v. Wade would be a huge gift to Democrats and so far it has been. I really am hoping by a steamroll. I really am hoping this is actually locked up before 11pm - even before California, Washington and Oregon come in. When the Lions beat Dallas and Green Bay the goal was to drub them so badly that not even crooked and stupid refs could make a difference. I hope for such a trouncing that none of his caterwauling about being cheated will even matter I hope to see our new President and shake her hand I hope. (if she somehow got 450 EVs, he's still shriek about it). He can shriek about it from Mar-A-Lago with his little ankle monitor for the next 2 years. If he has single marble left in 2028, he'll run again and he'll end up their nominee and there's nothing they can to do stop it.

Funny that the first time Joe Biden ran for President he dropped out over a scandal. That he quoted a British politician without giving credit. That's it. Man, the bar was so much higher in 1988.

You know it, Neighbor.

Like Bowfinger. If the script's amount of K's can be divided into 3, Kit Ramsey wouldn't do the movie. LOL.

Think about where this team was just 5 years ago. The fans had no hope The players HATED their coach They FOUND ways to lose Nobody wanted to play here This turnaround is beyond stunning and the thing that makes it the most stunning is that this is built to last for a long, long time. With this GM, you have the confidence that a terrible season would be 8-9, not 3-14. They just find ways, no matter what.

Week Ten: Detroit Lions (7-1) @ Houston Texans (6-3)
Motor City Sonics replied to MichiganCardinal's topic in Detroit Lions
If they want to go 16-1 they have to make a move for a pass rusher - at the least. They won't get away with not pressuring the QBs forever. -
Week Ten: Detroit Lions (7-1) @ Houston Texans (6-3)
Motor City Sonics replied to MichiganCardinal's topic in Detroit Lions
On Paper is the key. Something sideways will happen, and I kind of hope it happens in the last 4 weeks. Something that reminds them that they are beatable, because in order to win it all, you need a little bit of that fear in the back of your head. -

Welcome to the Lions, Za'Darius Smith (it's going to happen) -

Motor City Sonics replied to MichiganCardinal's topic in Detroit Lions
I don't think they're going 16-1, so they're gonna lose one of these games, right? Right? Now 15-2 --- that's a lock ! By the way TP, 6-11 is not possible now. You may have missed that one. -
Are the Commanders actually the 2nd best team in the NFC? NFL Power Rankings 1 - Detroit Lions - The Lions would destroy KC right now. 2 - Kansas City 3 - Buffalo Bills 4 - Pittsubrgh Stillers 5 - Baltimore Raves 6 - Washington Commanders 7 - Minnesota Vikings 8 - Philadelphia Eagles 9 - Green Bay Packers 10 - Houston Texans 32 - New Orleans - They earned it 31 - Carolina 30 - NY Giants 29 - New England 28 - Las Vegas 27 - Tennessee 26 - Jacksonville 25 - Cleveland 24 - Dallas 23 - Miami

Because none of the coaches (Indy, Minny, Tampa & KC) are in jeopardy NEW HOT SEAT RANKING !!! 1. Dennis Allen, New Orleans. Wouldn't shock me to see it happen tomorrow, but 2 more weeks until the bye. They've fallen off a cliff. 2. Doug Pederson, Jacksonville. He may survive the season, but they were supposed to be the AFC version of the Lions. They've gone the wrong way 3. Mike McCarthy, Dallas. I wouldn't expect Jerry to make a move mid-season, unless they loss 3 or 4 in a row. Well....they've got Philly, Houston and DC next. If they get hammered at home against Philly, it might happen. Mike Zimmer has Head Coaching experience and can certainly fill in as an Iterim. $60 million for Dak Prescott? Yikes 4. Kevin Seftanski, Cleveland - A Year after winning Coach Of The Year? Yep. Cleveland had expectations. 5. Antonio Pierce, Las Vegas - It's a mess. But that's what you get for hiring that jackass Josh McDaniel. You get pain, long after he's gone. I don't think Brian Daboll is in jeopardy this year. If the Bears collapse Matt Erberflus is certainly on this list.

If I were betting this week Favorite - Spread - Underdog (HOME TEAM in ALL CAPS) ATLANTA 3 Dallas - I'll take Atlanta, at home and I think Dallas is done. BUFFALO 6 Miami - Buffalo all day here CINCINNATI 8 Las Vegas - Give me Vegas and the points LA Chargers 2 CLEVELAND - I will take the Chargers here. TENNESSEE 3.5 New England - I'll go Pats here (based on what I saw from Tennessee last week) Washington 4 NY GIANTS - I think it's DC and it won't be close New Orleans 7 CAROLINA - I will hesitantly take NOLA here BALTIMORE 9 Denver - Balto will win, but 9 points? Give me Denver PHILADELPHIA 7.5 Jacksonville - Jax and the points ARIZONA 1.5 Chicago - Much as I hate trusting Arizona, I will here. That end last week has to have rattled Da Bears Detroit 2.5 GREEN BAY - I will take the Lions, who have exorcised their Lambeau Curse LA Rams 1.5 SEATTLE - Strange spread is begging you to bet on Rams. I will take Seattle MINNESOTA 5.5 Indianapolis - AR was playing like arse, Flacco inspires team. I'll take Colts KANSAS CITY 9 Tampa Bay - Tampa's so scrappy, but too many injuries, I'll go KC here. This is my iffiest game. Other Bet Someone wearing a Browns or Titans uniform today will be wearing a Lions uniform next week.

It's funny. I watched Emergency as a kid. I had to watch it on the little black & white TV in my room because my mom could not stand all the sirens. But I never though that in my 50's I would be watching these shows again and REMEMBERING lines and plots from when I was 7 years old. Anyway, a lot of aspects of the show aged very poorly - especially their depiction of women. It's very cringe-y. I know they weren't the only show that showed women that way, but it does make me a bit uneasy. They're often portrayed as dumb or hysterical, when in my adult life I realize that women are not only smarter than men, they lap us and as far as being hysterical goes, that while yes, women may allow themselves to cry more than men do, it's merely because women are more open. And I have also learned that women are mentally tougher too. One of the reasons is that they have to put up with men all the time. We're mostly a bunch of overgrown children. Remember, single moms continue to get bashed in certain circles, but it was the moms who stayed & toughed it out while the dads took off (in more cases, not all). Anyway, still watch it if I find myself at home sick during the day or on the rare work-from-home day (which I don't like doing). Randolph Mantooth is the most awesome name of all time.

Well A - that should be plastered in ads all over the telly in these last 2 days B - He'll probably roll back child labor laws if given the chance like that troll in Arkansas did.
