  1. This Illinois helmets are very cool. They look like actual leather helmets
  2. Jack Tuttle is amazing. How did they not know how good he is?
  3. Gotta scream they're a racist, eh?
  4. I don't mind Indiana being really good. I would like to see someone other than Michigan/Ohio State/Oregon. Some new blood.
  5. Hey Matt Rhule, I guess Indiana must be stealing your signals too ! LOL Indiana might be for reals
  6. Once I was driving home from work at the hospital, Summer day, had my scrubs on. Go to exit on Michigan Ave........There is a Stop Sign there. Car in front of my starts to go and then I start to go and they slammed on their breaks. I hit them, but not hard enough to make an actual dent. Older couple gets out (with a Coexist button on her jacket) and starts calling me every name in the book. F-bombs galore. Cop comes and as soon as the cop gets there she starts crying about how much her back hurts. That whole gasping/crying/can't finish a sentence thing. She needs an ambulance, it hurts to walk. "He came out of nowhere". Cop has us pull into an empty parking lot, tells me go park about 10 spaces away........deals with them and then comes up to me and tells me "you're getting scammed, we know who these two are - all of Metro Detroit does........I know you didn't do anything". Anyway, cop takes my info and tells me it's because I was wearing scrubs they probably thought I might be a doctor (driving a Honda Civic?). I never heard a thing about it after that day. Cop totally cleared me of everything. Heavy set woman with glasses, talk skinny guy with long hair, looks like Bill Spaceman Lee's hippy brother. They'd be mid 60s by now. Just in case they're still at it.
  7. I hope the arrested the driver and gave them prison time.
  8. When I am out driving I flip off every house with a Trump sign. It IS cathartic. I won't walk my dog down a certain strett because it seems to be Trump Central in Dearborn. Probably part of the Old Racist Dearborn. My street is very diverse (white, black, middle eastern, Mexican) and wouldn't ya know, we all seem to get along just fine. Amazing. Something that would have never happened before the 2000s around here. I am the only one on my block with a lawn sign and it's Kamala. Final straw was when he pissed on Detroit. I was voting for her but keeping it to myself, but to hell with that. 4 years ago I had a very nasty note in my mailbox over my Biden sign, and I am expecting that again at some point. There is a vet that lives on my street who is Republican but absolutely hates Trump. Can't believe anyone vet would support him. I was driving through the neighborhood near Michigan & Military today. Saw a lot of Harris signs. I like that neighborhood.
  9. He probably thinks this thread is about him.
  10. Ann Arbor Folk Festival - January 25. Friday headliners are Waxahatchee & Josh Ritter Saturday it's Toad The Wet Sprocket & Bruce Cockburn
  11. Under The Radar on Sunday October 20th - will feature Cunningham Bird as Pick Of The Week. Madison Cunningham and Andrew Bird have teamed up to cover the Buckingham Nicks album from 1973, which was not a successful album radio or sales-wise, but Mick Fleetwood liked it, played it for John and Christine McVie and ask if they should invite them into Fleetwood Mac. Sometimes all you need is one person to like it and it can change everything. Also going to play All Duos too. Still haven't music mined for tomorrow's show yet. Gonna cheat a little and feature bands that are basically spearheaded by a duo (Squeeze - with Difford aand Tilbrook) 7 til 9 - every Sunday annarbors107one.com or thisisqmusic.com or listen (Washtenaw, Western Wayne, Southern Oakland county on 107.1 - West Michigan at 94.5) We're one of only two stations playing this in rotation. Can't figure out why - it's great.
  12. Polls Schmolls. I remember two years ago the polls predicted a red wave. Hardly. Polls are all over the place but one thing they do not accurately convey is. The young vote.
  13. Mi padre trabajaba en una imprenta justo al otro lado de la autopista del estadio Tiger. De hecho, imprimían los programas diarios de cada partido y mi padre los traía a casa todo el tiempo. Me enfermé cuando tenía 12 años y no podía hacer mucho. Él trajo a casa un anuario de los Tigers de 1977. Me mostró la parte de atrás donde estaban las direcciones de todos los equipos de las grandes ligas y me dio un rollo de sellos y una caja de sobres y me dijo que escribiera a cada equipo y pidiera un calendario de bolsillo. Así lo hice y casi todos los equipos respondieron (Ey Brewers y Astros, ¿demasiado ocupados para ayudar a un niño?). La mayoría de los equipos simplemente enviaron un calendario, pero algunos equipos enviaron otras cosas como tarjetas. El equipo que más envió fue los Mets. Me enviaron horarios, imanes, pegatinas y parches. Desde entonces me gustaron los Mets por eso. ¡Así que VIVA METS!
  14. Good. A Generation finally doing something good for the planet. COVID was nature's way of getting rid of us for the planet to survive and thrive.
  15. He's like Chance The Gardner but if Chance was a greedy, shallow, racist, sexist, bloviating gasbag. Just says **** and half the country thinks it's somehow deep. The bar gets lower and lower and lower. Now get this, Honky, You go tell Raphael that I ain't taking no jive from no Western Union messenger. You tell that a-hole if he got somethin' to tell me to get his ass down here himself.
  16. Think of Poppy on Seinfeld.
  17. They could have easily tried a field goal to hang 50 on them. Campbell tried to stop at 40 but Branch almost got a pick 6 down to what, the 3? Kneeling on the ball on the 3 yard line is actually more insulting to the other team. They don't want you to pity them.
  18. Hate takes a lot of energy, acceptance of others takes none.
  19. Mark Robinson's campaign manager?
  20. If Stafford had stayed here the Lions don't get the draft picks they used to build this team and we'd probably still be floundering around 7-10 to 9-8 The Rams / Lions trade - in my opinion, is the greatest sports trade in my life. Everyone won the trade. The players involved, the teams involved. The Rams run had to come to an end. They got a ring out of it. I'd take that any day of the week.
  21. Don't worry. Only 7 more years and Kasper & Danielson will be here.
  22. Wow. Yzerman's free pass needs to come to an end here. We all felt he didn't do enough this offseason to improve this team and this defense. I know the Rangers are good, but this is an awful start to the season. I didn't know the Yzer-Plan was a 15-year plan.
  23. He has no business doing this as a team owner. We know how competitive he is. To think he won't use inside information is laughable. Of course he will. He'll just be sneaky. No way Tom will violate that trust. Yeah, and no way Ohtani made illegal bets too.
  24. I know the Gordon Gekko character was based on Trump, but in that movie Gekko faced justice. Is a Gecko a reptile? It would make perfect sense.
  25. Did Nacho Varga switch his pills?
