  1. If any other country raided and shutdown a media entity like this US Diplomats and government officials would publicly freaking out and potentially responding with harsh action. But somehow, Jewish Trump will be able to get away with opposing and oppressing free press. This is an outrageous and dangerous step towards fascism on Jewish Trump's part. Just as we here in the United States are concerned about America's step towards fascism if Donald Trump gets elected again, Jewish Trump is already doing what we fear in Isreal.
  2. Wow I can't believe what Oklahoma is doing. Tennessee is doing everything they can to keep Oklahoma in it and they're crapping the bed. They get the ball back twice after a turnover and immediately turn it back over to Tennessee.
  3. What a comeback today. I was convinced they were going to be run off the field Miller Moss and USC's offense. But they went out and played bully ball with USC's defensive line and ran it down their throat all game long. Michigan's identity has been to dominate at the line of scrimmage and just wear other teams out over a 4 quarter game. It worked exceedingly well tonight.
  4. I don't know where that offense was and that run game was in the first three games. They haven't controlled the line of scrimmage like that all season. Keep it to boys!
  5. 3 and out on a drive that should have at least started in field goal range. This offense is plain bad.
  6. I hope that shove that resulted in a 15 yard penalty was worth it. I hope that kid enjoyed and remembers this moment like he was hoisting the national championship trophy. God do I hate stupid penalties like that.
  7. Also, what was the exact play it situation that has caused Iffy to miss multiple weeks? Was it something that occurred during training camp?
  8. So Marcus Davenport is back in full health for this week? That's good news.
  9. I said it was a mistake then and it turns out to still be a mistake now. Striking is a fundamental right and a fundamental tool of the working class to stand up against the ultra wealthy and powerful. Biden and many Democrats union-busted these railroad workers. They should have either been given the contract they demanded or been allowed to strike. It doesn't matter if the entire country has to shutdown, short of EMS and Police service, every union employee deserves the right to strike.
  10. Can we sneak Petry through on the fine print?
  11. It's been a really good offseason so far for Stevie Y and the Wings organization. Getting Raymond for 8 years @ $8.1 million and Seider for 7 years @ $8.55 million are both deals that are right about where they should be. Getting Raymond and Seider both signed to very reasonable deals in the matter a week is fantastic news. Yzerman didn't end up massively overpaying for his own players either like Kenny would have. Raymond and Mo are two of our foundational pieces that will help us bring Lord Stanley back to Detroit. Having two foundational talents like the locked up and ready to go for the next 5+ years is great. Now there are no more excuses. It's time to step up and compete with the big boy teams in the NHL. Would it be nice to have one of our foundational pieces be a playmaking center, capable of producing 90+ points a season? Sure, who wouldn't want that. But draft lottery luck didn't fall our way in the right years and Kenny left the cupboard bear when he skipped town. As I said in an earlier post though, because we don't have that game changing center, I think this teams path to a Cup much more reflects the style of a Vegas Golden Knights or St. Louis Blues from a few years back. It's been a very productive, solid offseason from the Wings. It's now time for Yzerm and and Lalonde to field a winning product and not only make the playoffs, but starting making a run when we get there.
  12. I don't know who needs or wants to hear this, but here's a random NHL fact I know. Did you know that Tony Twist only had 28 total points over his entire 10 year career. That's an average of 2.8 points per year. Just thought people might want to know that.
  13. It's always projection with these people too in the MAGA world and on the extreme right. Proport to be adamantly against porn and be transphobic while yourself having a thing for transgendered pornography.
  14. America's moral majority. The party of family values, teaching all of us sinners how to behave.
  15. As MTU said Trump called Mark Robinson Martin Luther King on steroids. He also said he was better than MLK and called him MLK x2.
  16. Fat Patricia deserves credit alright, he gets credit for being the first coach to get blown out on Monday Night Football by a rookie QB whose now been with 4 different teams in his NFL career. So sure, I'll give Patricia that credit.
  17. They're eating all our borscht, all our kielbasa, all our sauerkraut. You're not gonna have any sauerkraut left! Nobodies ever seen anything like it. Hawwwrible!
  18. What makes you certain of this? They needed an edge rusher going into the deadline last year and passed on Montez Sweat. They may be just happy with what they have here already with Patrick and Robinson for the X-Receiver spot.
  19. Even Old Man Ford, as pathetic an owner as he was, didn't deserve to be doxed and harassed outside his home. You want to boo or heckle someone do it at the game or call into 97.1 and do it.
  20. Also, to her credit, you are starting to see some of this class conscious campaigning from Harris herself. Branding herself as the middle class candidate, saying she's taken on big business and Wall Street as an AG, showcasing that Trump only cares about wealthy people like him. More of that type of campaigning please!
  21. Didn't AOC beat a long time Democratic congressman in a primary election specifically by making class consciousness a big part of her messaging and campaigning? Republicans have made economics a cultural issue. Democrats can too. We can have both abortion and economics as cultural wars to fight on one day, way down the line. I see nothing wrong with demagoguing rich people and big business. After all, that just factually is the reason for much of people's plight and misery. When your job doesn't pay you a living wage and you have to get a second one. When your employer can fire you at will, with little to no protections for the average worker. When your CEO makes 300-400x what their average worker at your company is making, that's a huge problem. When big businesses are reporting record profits and your paying more at the grocery store, more for a car, more for a house, more on rent. All those are economic issues on their face, but can be turned into cultural issues through class consciousness. Republicans have been masterful making immigration and the economics around immigration both an economic and cultural issue. Democrats should be attacking big business, CEOs, and the wealthy with as much vigor as Trump and Republicans have attacked immigrants over the last 15-20 years.
  22. I agree with this. However, I think Democrats need to demagogue back and create bogymen of their own. Right now, culture is king and Republicans have succeed on cultural issues because they have demagogued and made a villain out of immigrants. Republicans have made economics a cultural issue with evil, scary, brown-skinned, non-English speaking immigrants coming in and not only taking over your culture, but your job as well. Democrats need to do the same thing but with the ultra wealthy, corporate executives, and big business. In the same way Republicans have ginned up hate and animosity towards immigrant communities, Democrats should be doing it on a class basses. Democrats need to show people that the real villains, out to destroy your way of life, are wealthy people like Musk and Bezos and the big corporations they operate. They need to show people that greed is bad and these people are trying to control more and more of the wealth. Democrats need to gin up disdain and class warfare against the rich. This is something I think, to a point, people like Bernie Sanders and AOC understand. It's not something that will happen overnight either. But if there is a 5-10-15-20 year sustained attack, with a media apparatus backing it up, on the rich and wealthy, things will begin to change. Right now, people think they too can get rich one day and be an Elon Musk or a Jeff Bezos. Democrats need to make economics a cultural issue too, but a culture based on class identity, not racial identity.
  23. Trump is only running again specifically to avoid the justice system. He knows he needs to win to avoid prosecution and jail time.
  24. What an absolute steal of a deal by Stevie Yzerman. It's nice to have a competent GM, who can manage the cap space he has reasonably well (Copp's contract not withstanding). Really anything under $8.5 was a win and this is a big win for us financially it seems.
  25. This is the guy that knows nothing about Project 2025. Just slap "I'm Kamala Harris and I approve this message" and I think you have your next ad.
