Obama's closing game is strong!

John Fetterman's social media game solid as always! Dr. Oz as phony as he ever was.

Even the other Nate, Nate Cohn, is clowning on Silver now.

Nate Silver loves himself some Nate Silver. I think his increasing status in electoral politics has inflated his own self worth and ego.

I think if Campbell doesn't use the timeout in the way he did in the Baltimore game we have a better chance at winning that game. With the Minnesota game he's got a twofer with the decision kick the field goal (which he admitted cost us the game) and the errant use of a timeout to stop the clock when Minnesota was driving without any timeouts left, instead of allowing the running clock to continue.

Dr. Robert Malone is the Jimmy Swaggert of science.

Jimmy Dore losses all credibility when he peddles the bullshit from a grifter like Dr. Robert Malone. Once again, as has been explained over and over, Dr. Robert Malone did not invent mRNA technology. He had a role to play in it, but did not invent it. Robert Malone has become the Jimmy Swaggert of science and the medical community, out selling his anti-Covid vaccine grift. Why, who knows, but it isn't based on science.

When your mistakes on the field cost you games they are no longer insignificant though. Campbell cost us the Baltimore game last year and the Minnesota game this year with coaching blunders. That can't happen. You should never be talking about coaching as a direct reason that you lose a game and we've had that conversation one a season so far with Campbell.

I still proudly display all my signs for Whitmer/Gilchrist, Nessel, Benson, Kyra Harris Bolden, and Prop 3 in my yard.

I wonder what the numbers would be like if that question was asked that exact way in every poll. Sure, voters care about inflation, gas prices, and rising costs, but is that their top motivating factor to actually vote?

The thing with Lake is that I don't know what she actually believes and what is just performative bullshit for the camera. In either case, it is scary because she could actually implement and adopt some of the policies she may only performatively believe in. With Doug Mastriano, and I mean this with all seriousness, I think he reads a book like Mein Kampf, and relates to the fucking thing on a personal level.

It's really something that "the most deliberative body of government in the world" could have Herschel Walker in it. A man who couldn't deliberate a Waffle House menu, much less the ins and outs of public policy.

Hopefully Katie Hobbs wins and puts that shit to bed with Kari Lake. But I agree, she's got the charisma, slick talk, camera appeal, and right wing, fascist chops to be a better candidate.

https://nfltraderumors.co/top-100-2023-nfl-free-agents-list/ There are a few guys right off the top I'd love to see the Lions target on defense. RB: Josh Jacobs/Raiders, Kareem Hunt/Browns DE/Edge: Marcus Davenport/Saints MIKE LB: TJ Edwards/Eagles (Not sure that Edwards fits into what we want to do defensively) CB: Jamal Dean/Bucs S: Vonn Bell/Bengals

No reason to think with that amount of potential cap space that Holmes couldn't drop his rookie QB into a ready made roster with a talent level capable of winning now. This of course assumes he hits in free agency and the draft, as well as sees growth from the players he's drafted already. It also assumes Campbell and the staff are worth a damn and can develop this talent. $50 million in cap space is enough to bring in a couple of game changing, transformative free agents on defense.

I know it seems like chances of Mastriano winning versus Lake winning are much smaller. I considered putting Lake as my answer. But in some small, outside chance Mastriano wins, what he could potentially do to the Jewish community is downright scary in a way that almost no other candidate is, even one as nutty and dangerous as Lake herself is.

Of all the Republican candidates that could win their election, which one concerns/scares you the most and which one depresses you the most. Concerned/scared: Doug Mastriano Depresses: Herschel Walker

West Michigan, Oakland County, and a community like heavily diversifying community with a large population Canton Township (almost 100,000 people there now) have really helped keep Michigan blue. As downriver, Genesee County, and parts of Macomb have trended away from Dems these other areas have been there to balance it out. The old "If you ain't Dutch, you ain't much" conservatives out in West Michigan are fading away and aging. As you said, Wisconsin lacks a major county that is quickly flipping blue like Oakland County or a large area like Grand Rapids to help preserve its blue state status. You can only squeeze so many blue votes out of greater Milwaukee and Madison.

Whoever this Main Squeeze dude is, he killed it signing Have a Cigar by Floyd.

I'd be curious to know if someone in our Player Personnel department whose been there a while, maybe a Lance Newmark or a Dave Sears, has a fetish for the Tight End position. It is truly wild how much draft capital we have wasted on the position over the past decade. Tight End is a luxury position that you don't take in the 1st round. If you are a constantly rebuilding organization like the Lions, you can't ever waste a 1st round pick on the position. It's like trying to build a car and the first thing you go out and buy is heated leather seats when you have no engine, transmission, breaks, or tires. As for the Hockenson trade itself, I'm frankly glad he's gone. I didn't want to resign him for the money it was likely going to cost us and am glad we got something for him that we can use in this upcoming draft as apart of our rebuild. The most Lions thing ever though would be to burn another 1st round pick on the position this year after having traded Hock.

Bernie is going to be in town on Saturday rallying for the Michigan Democrats and Governor Whitmer. Shit on him all you like, but he's been out there in the battleground states working to get progressives out to vote.
