  1. I bought my house in 2009 during the housing crash. Most of the bank owned foreclosures were being snatched up by investors paying cash. I was able to buy mine through HUD since HUD offers the homes to people who will homestead it vs investors.
  2. District 13 ends at 8 Mile. Warren is entirely in district 10. It looks like I'm destined to have John James.
  3. I know I'm a horrible person but I can't stop laughing at it. Someone is going to shorten it, convert it to a GIF, and make a meme out of it.
  4. I think Shri Thanedar said he was going to run for congress. Thanedar ran a Democrat so I would imagine he would pass on the Governor's this time around.
  5. I miss Shannon Hogan.
  6. Well this is disappointing
  7. Perhaps, but I don't like the fact that Los Angeles just feels entitled to a football team. The NFL did just fine without Los Angeles for 20 years so I really don't care about their market size.
  8. Kind of hard for the Detroit Chief of Police to run ads about how horrible crime was in the city he where he was police chief.
  9. I found an article, not the same one I recall reading, that briefly mentions it. Apparently WCF also offered Reggie Brown an opportunity to be a scout or coach for the Lions. "Despite the disappointment, Brown refocused his efforts on other goals outside of football and in the spring of 1999 he earned his degree in agriculture economics from Texas A&M. With the degree, Brown had a variety of options to choose from including three that had been specifically arranged by Lions owner William Clay Ford. Lion forever Ford had told Brown in the weeks following the injury if he wanted to stay connected to the game he was always welcome to become part of the Lions organization as a scout or coach. If Brown wanted to get away from the game, Ford offered him a position in the Ford Motor Company’s dealership training program where he would learn the ins and outs of the auto dealership business with the hopes of one day running his own. Brown returned to Austin the month following his graduation where he opted for a trial run scouting in the Lions organization. It was short lived. “It was a way for me to get back close to the game, but I don’t think that I was psychologically ready to evaluate other players. Even that amount of travel and everything that went into it, I just wasn’t ready,” Brown admitted. A short time later he enrolled in the dealership training program where he completed it in the required two years. Over the course of the next five years he eventually worked his way up to general manager and assistant to the dealer at one Austin dealership. In that same time he married Patterson." https://www.detroitnews.com/story/sports/nfl/lions/2017/12/22/breathing-reggie-brown-relives-injury/108850952/
  10. No one is determining the value of the protest, only you seem to be doing that. What people are saying is that you can't do anything you want because you are protesting. These truckers are free to protest but not free to occupy an international border crossing and bring international trade to a halt. Nobody would care if these yahoos were protesting in a park.
  11. I honestly didn't even know Occupy Wall Street was still a thing.
  12. Rinke seems to be your new breed of Republican. Born into privilege, inherit the family business that others built for you, claim to be a successful businessman, doing shady things, run for public office as an outsider and businessman.
  13. I live a few blocks from the Rinke dealership. Nobody likes them.
  14. It wasn't shutting down a road, it was shutting down an international border crossing.
  15. Two's company, three's a riot.
