It’s really not even a death sentence, is it? Death sentences are typically carried out in controlled circumstances like electric chairs and gas chambers and medical gurneys or even prison yards. This was more like open murder.

Just talk about it and talk about it and talk about it some more, then, when it happens, everyone's like, yeah, well, they said they would, shrug.

Next up: Nobel Peace Prize!

They are undertaking efforts to discourage EVs and move people back toward IC. https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/01/unleashing-american-energy/ https://www.pbs.org/newshour/show/trump-pushes-for-more-oil-and-gas-production-and-a-roll-back-of-climate-initiatives https://www.reuters.com/business/energy/trump-hits-brakes-electric-vehicle-growth-now-2025-07-28/ https://www.heritage.org/government-regulation/commentary/good-news-drivers-its-the-end-the-road-the-ev-mandate

I honestly, truly am starting to believe they actually discuss what is the worst thing they can do to hurt and upset the most people possible before choosing the thing.

Also, are you paying $4.99 for a dozen eggs? You are if you go to the Kroger Mariano's in Chicago. #TiredOfWinning

He'll have to pick one, I guess?

First blush would be to say what about the Brewers, but while the baseball punditry are still referring to them as a juggernaut, they have gone 7-11 in their last 18 games. It happens to everyone.

Not meaning you here, but so many people have opinions about whether it's pitching or hitting that wins games. It's not one or the other. It's both. You can't have one without the other. If a team has the best pitching in baseball, they're not going to win squat if they can't hit, and the same the other way others. It's all a big deal. A team needs to be able to at least do one at an average level if they're going to win having among the best of the other. They haven't been as good at either since the break, but the reason the Tigers have the best record in the American League is because they are 8th in run scoring and 13th in run prevention for the year. That's a pretty good combination to have when it comes to winning games, and honestly, had you told me back in August 2022 that would be where the Harris would have the Tigers in September 2025, along with the most loaded system in Baseball waiting in the wings, I would have fell out of my chair in disbelief.

TBF, Mize was the consensus 1/1 pick of that draft. None of the other players who may have been briefly considered have had much better careers, and the best careers from that draft so far are Nico Hoerner (#18 overall), Cal Raleigh (3rd round), Jeremy Pena (3rd), Steven Kwan (5th), and Jarren Duran (7th). Spencer Schwellenbach was a 34th rounder that draft, for cry eye. You just never know how someone is going to develop vis a vis their own ceiling and how they fit in the system they end up with.

I know how people here like to think Harris and Hinch butt heads, as I guess they imagine all GMs and manager do. maybe you think so, too, and maybe you don't. But I happen to think they are in lockstep as to who comes onto the team and how they get used. It would not surprise me if Hinch gets veto power over players Harris suggests they might bring onto the team. I think they make a potent combination and we will rue the day one or the other or both of them leave.

Some people can't, anyway. 😏

Elon has more money than Trump, and Trump always looks up to those people. Stephen Miller is the hardcore loyalist who will never waver following through on Trump's worst instincts, and then some. Within an army of sycophants working for Trump, Miller is the cut above that Trump values. I don't believe Christie ever worked for Trump's administration?

It's for the people who want to see him retire as a Tiger for life and go into the Hall in a Tigers cap. I acknowledge that you don't care.

Flip side, if a mainstream media outlet were to report on or speculate on this at this point, the world’s hair would be on fire. That’s different from Fox, which freely dabbled in this kind of thing but they are such an unprofessional media outlet that no one takes them seriously when they do. I believe MSM standards are such that they can’t freely post every minor or speculative item of this sort. That said, Trump is already regarded as being in such poor health that just because these minor outlets show and report on this kind of thing doesn’t mean it can’t be true. They do pass the smell test, unlike Fox speculating on Biden’s health whenever any doctor ever signed the White House log. But yes, there does need to be a information from them before we can take it heart attack seriously.
