  1. They need some socialism?
  2. Right before they came back from commercial before the final half inning they showed the final out in ‘87 against Toronto. I actually got choked up. I was in high school. I started to think about how I was now (in 2006) married with 2 kids and a job and a house…. 19 years can be a small amount of years, like 2006 to now feels, or pretty much a lifetime, as 87 to 06 felt to me then.
  3. They clinched the playoff spot in KC and celebrated. It was a Sunday. It was the first time in the playoffs in 19 years. Then they came home and lost the final 5 in a 6 game home stand to finish a game out of first. In that scenario it’s backwards from today. They lost the division after winning a playoff spot. But the division lead then wasn’t as large.
  4. I am trying to be philosophical about it. You play 162. During that time you have hot stretches and cold stretches. Some come in May or June or July or the last 2 weeks of September.
  5. Vasteras? That was Nick Lidstrom's hometown. He was a huge fan of his. I am friends with him on FB but he doesn't appear to be active. He gets tagged by family though so he's around still.
  6. how can this guy be so stupid?
  7. She must have been a Mitch Hedberg fan
  8. If somehow they win the division, they will. But if they keep losing and end up a WC team this weekend in Boston because others lost... I don't think they will. But who knows... I'm sure I'll be wrong again.
  9. We're going to go out and find some former members and offer them a 1 day contract to do a game thread and then retire a MTS member.
  10. what goes around comes around....

  12. if the Tigers end up with a playoff spot... do they even celebrate? I bet not.
  13. Welcome to last week's discussions.
  14. I think it's part of the former. Certain words trigger algorithms that can block content. I've seen "died" replaced with "unalived" Don't know about China or TikTok.
  15. Yet you constantly hear whining about how mean leftists and such are to people and they the problem.
  16. And my wife will have them memorized. She saw Wicked once and from then on I hear her singing along when something from it is on TV. I will ask her what that is. I’m like “you saw it once…”. But I mean… she even loves Xanadu.
  17. I remember last year having discussions expressing support for the Tigers being just as responsible as the leaders for falling back.
  18. That’s why he’s not in the sequel trilogy.
  19. Cleveland deserves a lot of credit too.
  20. We only watch if we are interested. I’d say half the time I just delete without watching. And a sure sign of getting older is we often have idea who the guests are.
  21. By no means listen to my opinion on whether to see it. You can’t argue with its success and that people loved it. I’m the old dad in Monty Python’s holy grail who stops the singing. (Huge tracts of land)
  22. The funny thing is everybody I’ve seen say they should fire him also admit they don’t like him and don’t want watch him. I record all 3 of them and skim them for guests and music. I typically avoid the monologues and bits.
  23. It's Madison Bumgarner coming out in relieve in game 7 of the WS.
  24. I would trust them more if the argument was simply "It's wrong" and not the qualifier of "They'll do it to us...." I say that with regard to Cruz. I don't know much of what the others have said yet.
