  1. How does this asshole keep getting jobs? He hasn't won anything of substance in a decade and had a bunch of first round playoff exists at best. Furthermore, he acts like a jerk towards his players akin to Mike Babcock (maybe not that bad).
  2. Even ole Brit Hume at Fox News knows what a **** up this Signal leak has been.
  3. Exhibit number 1,874,328 of if four US troops died on a Democratic President's watch like this the GOP would be outraged and using its Congressional powers to investigate it.
  4. The only reason I could see the Lions trading down is for depth purposes. We saw how injuries ravaged this defense last year. So maybe they want to pick up an extra 3rd, 4th, 5th along the way to have what they might believe is more quality depth talent. That said, I think it is more likely they trade up, get aggressive in the first round, and go and get their guy.
  5. It's 3-1. We're done and we're not making the playoffs.
  6. You are trying to point out by posting a picture of Bernie and Tulsi together that he promoted her and used her a a surrogate on the campaign trail. Fine, fair enough, because it's true. The Clinton's were good friends with Trump to the point that they hung out with him and went to his wedding. So they were friends with the literal scumbag we all hate now. I could also come on here and post pictures of Bill Clinton and Mark Rich. Bill Clinton and Jim and Susan McDougal. Bill Clinton and Jim Guy Tucker. Bill Clinton and any number of his Chinese associates that the DNC unlawfully took campaign contributions from in 1996. Bill Clinton and any number of the shady cats he was associated with that spent time in prison or fled the country.
  7. What are the chances you think that the Lions go offensive line in the first round at this point? Would you be disappointed if they took the BPA Center/Guard combo or Tackle if he fit their need?
  8. Good character from what I have read, plays all three downs, and plays hard against the run. Seems like a Brad and Dan type of guy. They seem to prefer 3 down Edge and DE guys like a Williams to a guy who is just a pure pass rusher. So I could see Williams being a guy that they would trade up for.
  9. GM'ing is very hard, I don't disagree there. As a GM, good or bad, part of your job is not only evaluation of talent on the ice, but also the talent you have inside the organization. You have to evaluate the talent you have and put out on the ice to see who fits, who doesn't, and where changes have to be made. Part of making those changes includes consulting the talent you have in your front office. You also have to be willing to make similar evaluations of your front office and scouting staff to see what is working, what isn't, and where changes have to be made. Right now, Yzerman's pro scouting and player personnel staff is failing him miserably. Maybe they actually aren't failing him and Yzerman is making all the pro side personnel moves himself. Maybe he's doing all the free agent signings, trades, and transactions on his own, without consulting his pro scouts and player personnel staff. I doubt that very much though. Whoever is giving his advice is either giving him bad advice or isn't speaking out if they believe he's making a bad decision. I don't if it's Assistant GM Shawn Horcoff, Player Personnel people like Clearly and/or Fischer, or any one of the number of scouts they have. But his pro side moves have on average been mediocre to bad. And when the moves haven't worked, they really haven't worked (Chiarot, Gustafsson, Holl, Husso, Petry, Tarasenko). We've seen other Detroit GMs come in and clean house in their respective organization's scouting and player personnel departments, be it Brad Holmes with the Lions or Scott Harris with the Tigers. Maybe Yzerman needs to be looking into making some changes on his player personnel or pro-side scouting staff. Assuming they are advising him on some of the signings they are making, they aren't advising him very well.
  10. Jason Isbell has a new solo album out called Foxes in the Snow. This one is more of an Isbell only project as it does not feature his band the 400 Unit. It also features more solo and acoustic guitar work from Jason. So far my favorite songs are True Believer, Gravelweed, Wind Behind the Rain, Ride to Roberts, and Crimson and Clay.
  11. Yes, because the right and Republicans have treaded so carefully on George Soros for the last 15 years and he's not even in the government.
  12. Sanders went all around the country campaigning for Hillary, Biden, and Harris. He did dozens and dozens of rallies during these election cycles.
  13. Hey, that's part of living a biblical life right.
  14. One thing I've never understood about God is this. If this God is supposed to be all knowing, all powerful, and has the ability to do anything they want, but simply chooses not to, isn't that legally speaking a form of neglect? If we are God's children, isn't he neglecting us? If I'm a parent of a newborn child I hold power over whether or not that child lives because it cannot provide for itself. I hold the power to feed that child, give it drink, bathe it, shelter it in warmth, provide it basic medical care, and on. If I purposefully choose not to do one or more of those things and something physically harmful happens to my child I'm legally negligent for not doing what I was powerful and otherwise capable of doing. I had the power to ensure my child's needs to survive were being met, I neglected them by my own choice, and thus I face legal punishment from the law. But with God, apparently it's not neglect. Even though they are all knowing and all powerful, people don't care that they abscond from their duties. They know someone may starve to death and die, but don't do anything. We are told by Christians, Muslims, and Jews, those of the Abrahamic faiths, that we are God's children. Why aren't people outraged at the neglect God shows us? If the average religious person found out their neighbor was purposefully starving their newborn baby they would be outraged. But when God does it to his own children, somehow that's justified.
  15. "A woman should learn in quietness and full submission. 12 I do not permit a woman to teach or to assume authority over a man; she must be quiet." - Timothy 2:11 In otherwords, shut the **** up bitch and do what your husband says to do. More love and wisdom from our just and loving God.
  16. I was just about to write how we looked cooked tonight and then Debrincat does that to make it 5-3. This defensive unit is still awful though.
  17. What an incredible season and turnaround Michigan has had. Dusty May worked the transfer portal hard, the way I wish Michigan football would have. He brought in an entirely new starting 5, coached them up to his system, and got them to play together to win. Winning with two dominate bigs inside and no true, dominate PG or facilitator is impressive. Amazing to think this was an 8 win team last year under Juwan and now they're headed to the Sweet 16.
  18. There is an educational resource online called Evil Bible that does a great job documenting all of the sick and evil parts of the Bible and God's word. When you dive into it you really see just how messed up, arrogant, and what a malignant narcissist this ever loving God really is. It's appalling to see what the Bible condones. https://www.evilbible.com/
  19. Remember if you wish to live a biblical life to beat the **** out of your children. I for one find child abuse abhorrent, but our ever loving God apparently does not. "Whoever spoils his son will bind up his wounds, and will suffer heartache at every cry. An unbroken horse turns out stubborn, and an unchecked son turns out headstrong. Pamper a child, and he will terrorize you; play with him, and he will grieve you. Do not laugh with him, or you will have sorrow with him, and in the end you will gnash your teeth. Give him no freedom in his youth, and do not ignore his errors. Bow down his neck in his youth, and beat his sides while he is young, or else he will become stubborn and disobey you, and you will have sorrow of soul from him. Discipline your son and make his yoke heavy, so that you may not be offended by his shamelessness." Sirach 30:7-13
  20. They didn't look like the team that just dominated and played well in the Big Ten tournament. They played sloppy ball and turned it over way too much. They have to tighten up their turnovers and play two quarters worth of defense.
  21. Michigan has collapsed and blown a big lead displaying absolutely no defense and continuing to turn the ball over.
  22. If it weren't for Michigan's sloppy ass play with the early turnovers they'd be running away with this game.
