  1. my earliest lions memory was billy sims on the cover of sports illustrated when they started 4-0 in 1980 (and missed the playoffs). then going 8-7 in 81 and ALL THEY HAD TO DO WAS BEAT THE BUCS IN THE LAST GAME OF THE YEAR AND THEY BLEW IT. then the strike year when they (and everyone else) made the playoffs at 4-5 and got obliterated by the skins. and then. 1983. they had the niners. they had them. despite FIVE gary danielson picks they had a 40 yard field goal to win the game. and little buddha at his grandparents' home in ypsi watching between his fingers cause he couldnt look, monte clark in prayer on the sideline, and reliable eddie murray just needing this one simple kick to send the lions to the nfc championship game and he.... ....pushed it wide. i came in with pain and its been nothing but pain since.
  2. yeah, but it wont stick to kloubachar, or biden, or joe manchin. it will stick to brown.
  3. i dont see how you put the toothpaste back in the tube unless you want to become china or russia. if you dont eliminate access to the internet, there will be places on the internet to find "misinformation." once the printing press was invented, they couldnt put martin luther back in the bottle either. this idea that you can make it unprofitable, or just "nudge" people to the "right" information will not work. you either go full china or you go home. or you stop listening to those who exaggerate the threat...
  4. republicans will make sure to let everyone know he's a democratic socialist, whether he calls himself one or not.
  5. is polis as anti-israel as bernie? i dont polis from adam, but if he's moderate, i doubt he has the far left chops bernie does. just as an aside, its funny how bernie is far left in america. if this was europe he would be very comfortable in the center left/right parties.
  6. you said the same thing about bernie and were all about assuring everyone that bernie would win. didnt happen. wont happen with brown either.
  7. being on the side of opening back up will endear you to the mlderates but will alienate the covid crazys and the LISTEN TO THE SCIENCE people. however, i think that could help someone like polis as a moderate dem. that said, being rich and jewish isnt going to help him with the left wing of the party.
  8. theyre definitely grooming buttigieg by putting him in the cabinet and then giving him tons of money to play with and look good. forgot about whitmer's accent. she's out. they'll have to find someone jim clyburn likes, lol. dont count out tammy duckworth. asian, veteran, disabled, woman. check check check. if she were a lesbian she'd be perfect, lol. i think she's totally unimpressive but she does hit all the democrat talking points.
  9. i forget how young some of you guys are.
  10. he's going to be in his 80s. i think that's too old to be president. biden got elected because he wasnt a crazy democrat and he wasnt donald trump. i dont know if those are the dynamics of the next election.
  11. you should eliminate any candidate from massachusetts or california. the gop would have a field day with candidates like that. too easy to steteotype. cory booker? the guy who "cried" when trump said he didnt want immigrants from shit countries? lol. no thanks to that overdramatic queen. kamala has shown nothing since being vp and her campaign for president was terrible. if she can somehow jump back on the "im a liberal but im also a prosecutor so i throw criminals in jail" platform maybe she has a chance. but that will be really hard to do after the last primary. newsome out, california liberal. warren out, taxachusetts liberal who everything thinks is a phony liar. sherrod brown: too liberal. mayor pete: could be the best candidate. kloubachar: could also be a great candidate but cant make it through the primaries because she's a white lady who put black people in jail and didnt execute white cops. and unlike pete, she cant fall back on the gay identity card. whitmer? meh, i dont know enough about her. woman? good. midwest? good. she got a little high profile in the covid wars. whats her stance on schools being open? landrieu and cooper have the profile for what kind of democrats win historically in the late 20th century win national elections (except obama the unicorn): southern governors.
  12. oprah is one of the most culturally influential people in the last 50 years. helped make everything about your "feelings" and pussify america.
  13. southern drawls are the best. especially a nice southern lilt. nasally midwest accents are bad (sorry michigan). minnesota is just dumb, eh?
  14. and if trump runs, no one in the gop will challenge him.
  15. i might go so far to say trump is the favorite right now, but youre right that it is waaaaaay too early. i dont see biden running again. i HOPE he doesnt. he's too old. but im not sure who else the democrats would run? harris seems a very weak choice. and i'm beginning to think trump will run, if for nothing else than the attention and money he'll make himself.
  16. will you be on the governmental committee for misinformation prosecutions?
  17. if inflation is high or the economy slows down or another covid variant is causing shut downs up north, desantis or trump could easily win. hell, we dont even know who the democrats will nominate yet.
  18. yeah, i know all about bad accents...and youse guys accents are terrible!
  19. michigan accents are really bad. no offense. once you leave for a while you can really hear those hard nasally "rs". my friend is married to a guy from pennsylvania and they always make fun of her michigan accent. "say ceasar salad!" and then they all laugh.
  20. for the millioneth time, michigan is not giving up its football team or reducing the competitiveness of its football team, no matter what the professors think.
  21. harvard likes to tell people they dont offer athletes scholarships, but they do. that's how tommy terrible at coaching amaker wins the ivy league every other year. but yes. youre right. theyre too far above the rest of us to think of big time college athletics...
  22. nothing is worse than a deep minnesota accent. makes you sound so stupid. hard core boston and new york accents are funny to me. wicked yahd in woos-tah. i spent two weeks in worcester on trial once. love that accent.
  23. all the departures so far have been expected except for hinton. they brought in a really good class of dbs and wrs, so the fact that they lose their dbs and wrs who werent playing BEFORE the good recruits got there is not surprising.
  24. loss. welcome back to reality saddiq.
