  1. I haven't bought a TV in about 20 years. I just keep grabbing old ones that family members want to get rid off after they buy fancy ones. They don't have TVs you can just put on a table and plug in now?
  2. I don't think police intend to to hunt and kill Blacks, but there is racial profiling. I believe Blacks are more more likely to be pulled over for minor traffic violations and are dealt with more aggressively due to profiling. As Gehringer suggested the other day, I do agree that we should trying to do more to rectify things like poverty and poor education rather than policing poor areas into submission.
  3. More Whites get killed by police because there are more Whites than Blacks, but the rate for Blacks is much higher: https://www.statista.com/statistics/1123070/police-shootings-rate-ethnicity-us/ Black 5.9 per million Hispanic 2.6 White 2.4 Other 0.9
  4. I enjoyed giving him **** up to a point, but it got old. MarothforMVP, on the other hand, was kind of scary.
  5. The biggest problem with Greene was his 29% k rate which is huge for someone with a .109 ISO. I think he'll improve on that next year, but that's an ugly k rate.
  6. I do think thre are some fans who have overstated Greene's performance last year, but that might be because the rest of the team was so horrible. I will say though that Greene did significantly better than Torkelson offensively .
  7. It will never go below 40.
  8. Well, he did rape at least one one of his wives. So, it's not surprising that he is confused.
  9. I don't know. Any high level politician doing the right thing is news!
  10. Not really, but Baddoo is a better prospect than LOL. Unlike Clemens, he is young and still has potential.
  11. Baddoo is no joke.
  12. One of Hinch's strengths in his first year with the Tigers was supposedly his manipulation of the roster and his influence over construction of the 25-man roster over the course of the season. You can't really give him credit for that if you are saying that the next year was Avila's fault because he didn't give him anyhing with which to work.
  13. Tigers get Little Cesar
  14. It will all come down to "Biden and Pence did the same thing as Trump" so what Trump did was OK and the majority of the country will be gaslit.
  15. I think Rolen and Whitaker are pretty similar. Very good for a long time, but never superstars. Rolen did have 9.2 WAR in 2004, but it was driven, in part, by a huge defensive year which may have been a fluke. I am also surprised he got in, because he is not the type of player the BBWAA usually notices.
  16. I also do not think Pence was doing anything nefarious. I absolutely can not say the same thing about Trump.
  17. Too much baseball? What does that even mean?
  18. Miguel Cabrera is in the best shape of his life. There is a different feeling in the clubhouse this year. There is a chemistry that wasn't there last year.
  19. Articulate like Jim Price?
  20. The MAGAs heard the name Tran and thought he was something else.
  21. By that definition, all mass shootings are hate crimes. It's silly for me to get into a debate about this though, because I dislike guns as much as anyone.
  22. I have some money in VMFXX. I noticed just the other day that the yield went up a lot in past couple of weeks.
  23. Early indications are the suspect was an Asian.
