I can't - someone stole my blanket.

Trump and his team will probably claim any audio of him breaking the law is A.I. It's going to be the easy go-to now, like every time a football player does something bad their people will claim he has "CTE". This Trump & Guiliani assertion that two poll workers were corrupt in Georgia (taken back by Rudy now) put their freaking lives in danger. This is the one I want him nailed on. There is 100% DIRECT EVIDENCE that he tried to intimidate a Republican Secretary Of State into changing election results. I don't know how much more open-and-shut you can get here. Of course, juries. No idea which way that jury is going to go and all you need is 1 to hang it up. Again, nothing will ever happen to him and every time he gets away with something it actually increases his chances next year.

Our idiotic championing of guns is a sickness.

They way his teammates didn't react makes me wonder if that's the way they keep him off the field in the preseason and nobody can complain about it.

Us believing that the Tigers were a contender - even in this weak division is equivalent to Linus waiting for the Great Pumpkin.

This crappy week is great for the Tigers because there is no way they will screw up and be buyers at the deadline now.

You drop 16 tons and whaddaya get. A great big hole and much higher rent.

Only 5 minor injuries is a miracle.

Interesting how so many people attacked Sinead O'Connor for ripping up that picture. Before that night, she'd been trying to bring up child abuse in the Catholic church and nobody would listen. So she went to an extreme length. Guess what - she was right all along. Her career tanked after that. Too bad it took another 15 years for the rest of the world to catch up and start doing something about it (not enough, though). Great song, from a great movie too. R.I.P. Sinead.

I loved that tree.

Storm rolled through the radio station in Ann Arbor about 3:10 and wow, that wind was nuts. Knocked a tree down outside.

Thank you Eduardo Rodriguez. Hopefully you can get us at least one really good prospect. Lorenzen's last Tiger game is today (or tomorrow). Looks like a line of storms will move quickly through the area around 2pm and then possibly around 9pm.

those are the stars, man. it's a starry night in the D.

I didn't wanna look at page one, man. I'm all about the future ! THINK ABOUT THE FUTURE ! THINK ABOUT THE KIDS !!!

So if there is a power outage, what happens when it gets dark? Is Don on the phone? Okay, I want a g--damned concerted effort to come out of an inning that isn't an up-tempo inning everytime I do a gosh darn DEATH dedication. Now make it........and I also wanna know what happened to the pictures I was supposed to see this week? This is the last G--DAMN time, I want somebody to use his friggin brain to not come out of a an inning, that is, uh, uptempo and I gotta talk about a friggin dog dying ! This friggin' ponderous, man, friggin ponderous,

Did the bank take Bally's equipment away?

I just tuned in............is everyone having audio problems?

Who will be the Interim Head Coach, Mike Hart?

I don't think Carpenter is that bad defensively. he's a guy who you can confidently use as an OF/DH. I think next year they'll be using the DH spot as a way to give guys a rest and not really a fulltime DH. Carpenter is the young player we're developing that we haven't had and now we want to trade him? Not unless the return is really good. Jonathan India would be alright if we could get rid of Javy Baez and use Short/McKinstry at SS. Nick Maton isn't making the most of his second chance. I don't think they need to make a major move. Get someone for Lorenzen and for E-Rod if he is telling them he's leaving. There are some young players coming. There are some young pitchers coming back. I don't think this team is too many players away, actually. They'll have to overpay for a hitter in Free Agency and Keith/Malloy/Meadows might not be great right away, but I don't think a major shakeup is needed now. Schoop is gone. Miggy will soon turn into pure energy and be absorbed into the atmosphere as a ball of pure light and that;s $40 million off the books. If Javy leaves it's what, $65 million and E-Rod might walk away from his $17million. That could be over $80 million off the books that wouldn't hurt the team too badly. Spend smartly, build depth if you can't get a star.

A couple of TV movies that were great were The Andromeda Strain, about a virus that wipes out a town and the scientists who have to figure out why just two people (and old man and a baby) survived. There is very little action, it's very sciency, very procedural and actually has a woman on the research team (which was rare in 1971), and she steals the movie. Totally sarcastic. Total nerd-out. Gattaca is a great thinking Sci-Fi movie, with very little action, but a really interesting concept. Won't see lazers, or stuff like that, but it is about a future that is conceivable. And Duel. One of Stephen Spielberg's first movies. It stars Dennis Weaver as a travelling businessman who is driving home through the desert and cuts off an old tanker truck and the whole movie is this truck stalking him. You never see the driver and the truck is creepy looking, and it's so good. 90% of the movie is just Dennis Weaver, no other actors, but it's great. It's kind of a prequel to Jaws. I am sure there have been plenty of "remakes" of these two movies, but they were not as good as these. Yes, they are both a bit dated and the editing in The Andromeda Strain is a bit stiff, but the editing in Duel is some of the best film editing you will ever see, TV or Theatrical. I saw there is a sequel to Soylent Green coming (Soylent Yellow). Everybody knows the plot twist to Soylent Green and Charlton Heston overacts (that was the thing back then, not his fault), so I don't know where they go with the sequel. What kind of shocking twist could there be. I know there was a series coming about Timothy Leary and Woody Harrelson was going to play him, but haven't heard much lately and I don't know whatever happened to the Joey Ramone movie starring Pete Davidson.

The Gutterballs dream sequence where The Dude is floating under the Bowling Pin dancers made Bridges nervous because he was going to have to look up the ladies' skirts and he felt kind of creepy about it. So what did the Coen's do? They invited his wife to come onto the set that day without telling him. LOL.

and the Dude is Jeff Dowd. There was a Big Lebowski pop up store in Baltimore by the Inner Harbor and one day Jeff Bridges stopped by..........so he went behind the counter and started working it as The Dude, refusing to break character. I don't know how long he stayed, but could you imagine stumbling into that?

This shot, right here Notice the light fixtures

If you watched the TV series Fargo, there are TONS of Coen callbacks, but one of them is when an elevator door opens and you look down the hallway and its a total Barton Fink nod.

Gotta see the Ballad Of Buster Scruggs. NOW, TONIGHT ! NO TIGER GAME Anyway, Hudsucker Proxy is one of the most underappreciated movies they've ever done. Tim Robbins, in the same year, starred in The Hudsucker Proxy & The Shawshank Redemption. Two very strange titles and probably a big reason they both flopped at the box office. The whole Hula Hoop sequence, from the approval, to the naming, the manufacturing and the sales is so fantastic. I think you underrated Raising Arizona (which has 3 Oscar winners in it, LOL).
