    EZ Fix: Balance the ****ing budget. If taxes are required to be raised, tough ****, do it. If Trump and his sycophantic H&S R's have to lose some of their self-serving tax breaks, tough ****, do it. If they can find ways to lower budget spending... that will actually fly in this country... fine, do it. 

    But in order to balance the budget, they're going to have to negotiate with the Dems... so the Trumpublicans are NOT going to get all their little "gimmes" in a balanced budget.

    Tough ****, do it.

    There is no significant number voters who are interested in balancing the budget or addressing the national debt.

    Two things Americans absolutely do not want: less services and more taxes.

  2. Espn story: 1 voter has tigers signing Tucker; 1 voter has tigers signing Valdez; zero voters have Skubal signing long term

    What will the Tigers do with Tarik Skubal this offseason -- trade him, extend him or let it play out?
    Survey says: Let it play out 10, trade him 3, sign/extend him 0

    when did every nba game devolve into the defensive equivalence of the nba all star game?

    does anyone even try on defense in the regular season anymore?  

    I know one team that tries!

    Would love to see this team go 15-0 in November. don't we deserve that after enduring a decade of crap?

    What are you telling me, that it is IMPOSSIBLE for the Orioles to make a mistake?

    the market has spoken. this is all that Rodriguez was worth. and it is not very much.

    so the question is not, are the Os wrong? the question is, is the marketplace wrong?

    if the Tigers offered Carp or Perez for Rodriguez, the Os would have instantly taken that over Ward, a lesser, more expensive player, with less team control.

    but the Tigers did not make that trade for a reason.

    I am begging you not to think that the one of the worst run franchises in professional sports somehow has gamed the system and outmaneuvered 28 other teams to acquire a huge asset for pennies on the dollar.

    could that be true? yes, it could be true. is it? nope

    The more obvious opportunity to improve our offense is in the outfield, either CF or RF. I’d still pursue Luis Robert in the hopes that he can get back to his previous self.  Meadows, Lee and Miller?

    a $20M gamble; i would not give up all 3 players, but if he could play 120 games, this would work out well
