Can’t fire him so why should he care? Seriously. What is the prospect for any ramifications? zero.

I miss COVID Easter a few years ago. It’s half a joke obviously as a lot of people were hurting. But it was nice to not have to worry about going anywhere or do anything.

What they will do is some legislative trick where you can’t vote unless you live X amount of months in a certain area but exclude “public housing” which will mean living on a campus counts as “public housing”. That could mean certain college students won’t have a valid voting location. Then Gorsuch and Barrett will be like “well that’s what the founders intended… our hands are tied”

Yep. And the religious women are like “well the Bible says the man is the head of the household so….”

Did Cheryl Hines divorce him. It’s hard to watch Curb now.

Conservative Republicans are not represented anymore.

I don’t see how that holds up in courts. You don’t belong to a state. That’s not how you are identified.

I deleted a post that posted a picture of the judge's daughter. We don't do that shit here.

I used to like RCP back in the mid 2000's... they didn't come across to me as right wing.

I wonder how much of that is due to budgetary cuts in big media. Or could just be laziness. It's the old Pauline Kael joke about Nixon, "Nobody I know voted for him". The media is not journalism. The media wants ratings and clicks and eyeballs. Republicans apparently sell.

As the CF he has the luxury of going balls out as the LF is there to field a rebound. 😀and an opportunity to have the play in front of him as opposed to over him.

Cop lets the door close on him... love it.

Mayor Adams should tweet her a middle finger and say "There's your apology you seditious skank"

I saw that right before his new "board" took over the governing of the site that the old board stripped themselves of a lot of power. All done in public meetings with proper notices. I am not sure about your question on Disney itself being an attraction but I can buy into the idea that it could phase out as Generation X and Y's kids begin to get older. I know a lot of people my age (almost 50) who go without their kids. Definitely still a nostalgia draw but it's very possible the lure of the magic kingdom is not being passed on to kids today, both young ones and those becoming adults. I get the sense that people are just taking their little ones to resorts in Cancun and the Carribean, often with other families. It's cheaper!!!!

I played OF in HS and always thought this and Kaline confirmed it. Balls hit right at you are the hardest to play because you don't instinctively know whether to go left or right. Plus you throw in that park with the high wall you probably hesitate in order to play it off the wall. You have to factor in that it will be too high to even bother trying to catch so your move is to play it the best way off the wall, then you realize it's "catchable" and are scrambling. The ball was also hit pretty hard, not much of an arc. With a normal height wall there's little chance of a rebound so you can go all out because it's either a HR or a catch. But with a trailing ball away from the LF you don't have the backup role by the CF as you would going the other way. If the ball was hit to his left instead of right he could have gone back straight away because Greene is there to field it if needed. All of those decisions in a second and half of action. I can't fault him for that.

Last week I was on youtube watching a documentary and the quality was shit. I noticed it was from a Smithsonian Channel program so I researched how to get that, discovered it was part of Paramount Plus. I signed up just so I could watch that documentary properly, it was part of a series. Holy hell there's a lot of good stuff on that service. I immediately filled up my list. I always thought HBO Max was the top streamer but I put this over that. And it's like 1/3 the price if you go with ads, which I don't mind.

There is definitely truth to this kind of thinking. Not sure about this particular case but overall the Lebanese, who have been here for a few generations, look down on Yemeni and Iraqi people here.

If he decided to go to Russia and hide forever, the logistics with the secret service would foul that up I assume. They need to to scout the area before hand. They'd probably tell him he can't go not just for the "fleeing" aspect but b/c of the war going on. I don't know the precedent for a former President butting heads with the Secret Service on travel wishes. If he stayed there then I assume the protective detail would be called home and he's on his own.

My buddy had Lions tickets going back to silverdome days. Finally gave them up 4-5 years ago. They called him last year and he signed back up. He went to two games and made $500 in profit from selling the other games. He’s happy.

They made the ECF in 87 and 88. They finished first in the Norris in 92. I remember the sporting news picked them to win the cup in 93. Scotty got here. I remember Ilitch wanted to fire him and bring in Mike Keenan. Scotty also wanted to trade Yzerman at one point. the wings fate turned on Yzerman falling to them after the islanders took LaFontaine. Then being aggressive in the European draft when there were so many unknowns.

We used to have a member here named sub Rosa. We argued a lot but would probably be best buds now that I wished up.

I totally agree with that assessment. I think a lot of it isn’t directly glossing over but just forgetting those times. He did one thing right. He hired DD. Yes he was willing to spend but there was a downside to that so I can’t quite chalk that up in the plus column. having Jimmy D with the Wings along with some great Euro scouts is the difference between th wings and tigers.
