The rollout of the SLS for Artemis II to launch pad 39B

You could with a 10% penalty.

He has a limited shelf life. They all do. Why give up one of his great years? If we are being honest, how good do you think he'll be in 2029 and 2030?

They've really thwarted the meaning, right? Sam Seaborn had one in his office on The West Wing.

I'm not an educator but it seems to me like the right path is to figure out your approach. It's not going anywhere.

I bet every person who issued a threat has a cross or Bible version in their social media bios.

A kick.

Yes, because these ICE folks are doing nazi stuff. This isn't that complicated. Smart people get it.

Not sure if this has been brought up here but McCosky had a thing in the News saying that the Tigers were prepared to negotiate on a deal, that the $19M was their first offer but Boras "shut that down" and was only interested in going to arbitration. He says that's why they filed $19M but I think the reasons outlined earlier in this thread are more true. Of course I'm not sure where his sources come from. What interests me more about this story is the unwillingness to negotiate a deal.

Fighting nazis is noble. Good for them. Anybody who still works for ICE is a nazi who deserves whatever happens to them.

I know which one I want. And make sure you film it this time.

I think about this kind of thing a lot with regard to media/entertainment in general. For the last 20 years or so as we've moved into an On Demand reality. We watch and listen and consume that which we've specifically asked for. Movies, music, TV shows..... I think that's messed with our brains. Sometimes its good to be bored and pushed things because that's your only choice.

This was crazy. Can’t blame the forecasters. Everyone got it wrong. It reminds me of the rain we got on Oct 7, my birthday. The Tiger playoff game. Alll day long it was supposed to stop anytime. It didn’t. I had a Tiger event downtown and driving home it looks like nothing was touched yet. Even 94 was 30 mph.

yes. They went 9-18 in September, in addition to losing 4 of 5 to close out August. That's what makes these kinds of things so remarkable. I've always defended the 2009 Tigers a bit for their "collapse". MN went insane that year to end the year while The Tigers merely lost 4 of 5. They were 16-12 in September. THat's not a collapse. Its a mediocre baseball team.

It's all about the psychological mindset of fans. When a team does well in the beginning fans are conditioned to think "Well, this is the team. They're good. We have a good team. Yay!" Then when that team doesn't play so well they're "chokers". If they start off not playing well they're not a good team. Then they finish strong and they are "Gamers" and have "character" and are "clutch" and "scrappy". Reminds me of the Bill Burr bit about swearing and referring to race/nationality. Black people had the genius idea to put the curse word after the description. A white person says "I'm just sitting there eating and this ******** Asian walks in..." "Hey hey... take it easy... what's the matter with you??" A black person says "I'm just sitting there eating and this Asian ******* walks in...." "You don't even hear it... So many careers could have been saved if we'd just put the curse word after". So for mediocre teams that barely make the playoffs... win later, not before.

Don't worry. We've got our "well regulated militia" standing by to fight tyranny. Right? That's what they promised.

Especially since they beat the team that overtook them at the end

Do you realize that post is as much about Cleveland as it is Detroit? They surged more than the Tigers collapsed.

he's just a college boy more concerned about his haircut and quarter zips than baseball.

When these ICE goons are doing whatever it is they're doing in MN.... how does that make our "borders secure"?

what's the ****ing difference between when a team wins or loses their games? They went 3-13 down the stretch in 2025. A baseball team going 3-13 is not unheard of. They went 5-13 in May of 2024. One season is great, the other is horrible? That makes no logical sense and just speaks to the ignorant sports talk show mentality. If fans were told prior to each of the '24 and '25 seasosn they would win 86 and 87 game, the fans would have been ok with that.

by 'social media' you mean manufacturing of 'kiddie porn'. That's good to know. Is that what you do in your church?
