no flipping way would i take a safety with the first pick in the nfl draft. no no no.

i had a friend that worked at his donut place and said lolich was a complete jerk.

that should be givani smith's only job tonight.

does jim harbaugh pay you a lot for that space he rents in your head?

i'm rooting for stafford. i want him to win a super bowl. i like the guy. whether the lions pick 24th or 32nd doesnt mean all that much. they should get a good player regardless.

from the interwebs: Harbaugh will draw a base salary of $605,000 over the next five years with additional compensation that nets him $3.3 million in 2021 and increased incrementally to $3.8 million in 2025. His total base compensation for the 2021 campaign is $4 million and tops out at $4.4 million in 2025. *** he has one time incentive bonuses for championships and bowl games but no automatic escalators in salary based on performance.

but i'm sure michigan will be different.

yeah, and texas fans like you clamored for tom herman to get fired after no national championships because "TEXAS IS BETTER THAN THAT". And he was duly fired and paid $20 million to go away. and then what happened? they hired steve sarkissian because he was so great after spending one year with alabama's massive talent factory and now texas is a laughingstock. be careful what you wish for, tater.

michigan is 9-1 and ranked 6th in the country. texas is 4-5, has lost 5 straight, and just lost at home to kansas for the first time in 100 years. i think you need to relax a bit.

when i was in okc there was no enforcement. and i agree with you on the necessity. the place i see where its being really enforced is on a plane. theyre pretty vigilant there. but places like grocery stores and restaurants, people are wearing them willingly and nobody needs to be told to do it.

same type of thing here. covid has made things weird for everybody.

the wings have the caps second round pick, the avs' fourth round pick, and the golden knights' fourth round pick. they dont have any additional thirds.

i dont worry about anyone shooting me either. i was telling my tourist friend that things can get a little dicey. sorry to bother you, chas.

lol at ryan day to the bears. god, i hope the bears do that.

that should be a crime. i think its horrible to do that to a child that age. i mean, they havent even hit puberty yet.

when you were in high school? things are a little different now. much much different.

i'm hoping its a fad, but with the way corporate america has glommed onto it i'm not so sure.

my 13 year old and her friends sit around and classify themselves by their "sexuality" daily. omni sexual, bi sexual, and all sorts of sexual. its what they see on tik tok so they parrot it. kids, man, amirite?

last time i went to the art museum they were passing them out to people before they went in. you have to wear one to get in. i really havent seen an issue here. people just put them on to go inside. its the norm now. the train is a little different cause all types but even then its like 90%. have a good time! the governor has talked about ending the mandates before the holidays but i dont think that will happen.

my wife is mexican. she and her whole family laugh at it. white people telling them what to do and how they should be offended.

shootings downtown are up 220% since 2019. thefts are up. robberies are up. crime is way up downtown. i mean, if youre in bed by 10, the chances of somebody mugging you go down quite a bit! lol. have you been there at night recently? i think its because there just arent as many people as there used to be, so you notice the people milling around that you wouldnt normally notice just because there are usually so many people. and there are a lot more younger people around because i think so many people have moved there in the last few years. i'm only there on occasional work days and am out by 5 or 6 but its definitely noticeable to me. but oblong's from detroit, nobody will fuck with you if youre from detroit, lol.

yup! you're in walking distance to michigan ave if that's your cup o tea. the art institute is really close. millenium park is there too, but it'll be pretty cold so... its snowing right now as a matter of fact.

exactly. its a superficial thing. my company - like every us company - is now obsessed with D & E. so its all about pronouns in emails, diversity clubs, "allies" with minority groups, so we are required to watch multiple videos by people talking about their oppression and all this other stuff about how tough it is for them in this racist, sexist, homophobic country. which, ok. but if the company wanted to do something to really help people, they could pay them more money, give them a pension, give them job security. THAT they wont do. but pronouns? videos to complain? clubs to join? theyre all over that. that's easy. as an aside, if someone asks me to call him "they/them" i will gladly do it. im not here to offend anyone and its not a big deal even i personally find it silly.

as for pronouns, all of upper management in my company has been "voluntold" to do it. they all do it now. i see it on corporate and law emails about 30% of the time but its growing. i find it ridiculous, but it is what it is. it doesnt hurt anyone (other than the english language). i dont do it, but im sure i will be told to at some point. they/them annoys me. its not correct, there is only one of you! but again, it doesnt hurt anyone other than the english language.

you have to wear one inside, so people do. when im on the train its about 90% compliance. i went to the movies last night and people wore their masks for the most part, even after the movie started (i didnt, i was eating popcorn, but most other people did). keep your eyes open down there, there's been a lot crime lately. you'll be ok, just dont be stupid. are you staying close to the theater? its about 4 blocks from my office.
