  1. and it would be an absolute zoo down there with sellouts at both stadiums. I recall game 3 of the ALDS in 2014 was during a Lions home game but the Tigers were down 0-2 already in the series.
  2. This sentiment gets shared almost daily by my right wingers on social media.
  3. We were able to do this before before technology and instant communication and computers. We can figure something out. We need these people.
  4. It was in reference to Eagle Pass getting 4000 migrants a day. Why can't we build entry points like Ellis Island today?
  5. I saw a tweet that said Ellis Island used to process 5K a day for years. Why can't we do that now?
  6. Menendez is going to switch parties. Just watch. And the GOP will welcome him.
  7. I think just to give him a chance for one final ovation as he runs off the field. Who knows.
  8. Ultra MAGA boostrap pulling business owner capitalist: "I can't find workers. Nobody wants to work. People are lazy. I invested 500K of my own hard earned money and can't stay open" Same ultra MAGA bootstrap pulling busines owner capitalist: "Why are we letting in these immigratns to take away real American jobs?"
  9. I don't think he'll play first but I suspect if he gets a base hit in any of his at bats he will be pulled for a PR. Unless it's in the first inning as people will still be filing in and will miss it.
  10. Things I didn't know until this morning. He did music too. And you've definitely heard of this one. I also learned a few weeks ago that Billy Squire has made millions from people sampling his riffs.
  11. I'd like to watch that because I suspect Gavin will rip him to shreds. DeShantis is not used to pushback.
  12. He did it on purpose. He wants to push the issue so he can once again play victim. He wants to both raise money and show that norms and consistency no longer matter in our country. He will prove that he’s above the law.
  13. The Marlins gave him booze too.... but a lot of other stuff too.
  14. I did not know that about Ryan and that ****s alll over the old school talk about todays pitchers being pansies and not real men like Nolan. Then they bitch that he never won a Cy Young and if you ask when should he have won they just being career stats.
  15. What’s with all these democrats calling on him to resign? Both parties are the same right? So it should be called a witch hunt and attacks on agents and prosecutors.
  16. I didn't think the Biden DOJ went after democrats?
  17. I've seen the Infamous Stringdusters a few times. When I got the alert they were playing at Pine Knob it puzzled me as it seemed a little big time for them, now I see why. Should be a good show. I've seen Bob Weir's solo show too.
  18. Jerry Reed was a good picker too...
  19. Team is 12-7 in Sept. I'd like to see 78 wins. That would be the most since Verlander played on the team.
  20. Car Dealerships.... where everyone gets a trophy. Ever notice how every one of them has all the top awards. I will say this... finding techs is extremely difficult now for the dealers. That affects the ability to service. It's a constant topic of conversation in my line of work. What usually happens is you get a good one then they find a "desk type" job with a supplier putting that real world talent to use upstream after a few years of wrenching and busting their knuckles.
  21. Maybe he didn't think it was fair to hire one over the other.... and it leaves them open to getting a GM job elsewhere if that interests them. In one sense you can say "Hey, you guys got to keep your jobs during a regime change, not many people can say that... now show us something."
  22. That's the new way. In order to get these top baseball guys from other organizations you have to give them top titles. What used to be the GM until the last 15 years or so was what the Presidents of Baseball Ops people do today. Organizations have gotten much larger and roles exist today that didn't back then so you have to give them titles and create a hierarchy. Jim Campbell reported to the owner. He was the equivalent of PBO. Now the GM reports to PBO and scouts and other staff report through him. Scott Harris was always going to be the key baseball person.
  23. Has Tigers twitter started ripping on him yet? We should ask him what he would have done with Jeimer last year.
