  1. What player? 😁
  2. Thankfully, Boebert is anything but a thought leader even in that party. Unfortunately, she's certainly not the only one in that party to believe exactly that.
  3. Assuming you believe we couldn't do that with the talent we have on board and in the system now, who do you think would be a good get for winning the division next year?
  4. Except it will take a quarter of a century for these "able-bodied workers" to have any impact, whereas you could allowing freer immigration and solve that problem RIGHT NOW.
  5. I think it's somewhat disappointing that an 84-78 team is going to play a 90-72 team in the World Series. I know that's the kind of thing we can expect to see more of with expanded playoffs, and in fact I will enjoy watching these games and certain of the players on these teams. I would prefer the teams with the best records, or close to the best, make the Series. Just my preference, shaped by a lifetime of fandom. YMMV, and probably does. Of course, if the Tigers go 84-78 next season and make the World Series, I will definitely throw this opinion into the dustbin of history. 😁
  6. Chipping away at the Constitution like that might actually be an attractive proposition for several dozen of those people.
  7. is it unintended? Really? 😉
  8. Holy **** Bryce Harper back flipped that cut off throw over to first base to get Moreno out after driving home Carroll with the single. Back flip!
  9. I'm not sure when I last thought of a rookie as being a good bet to make the Hall of Fame, but I feel that about Corbin Carroll.
  10. Who won’t get moderates to vote for her, either. Looks like the Republicans have checkmated themselves.
  11. I think you're on to something, because the likelihood is that afterwards, they will merely move on to the next democracy-threatening grift.
  12. They have to fold because otherwise, they might well be murdered by a MAGA voter.
  13. Translation: I never dreamed the Deep State would actually bust me.
  14. It won't mean a thing until Trump admits it.
  15. If you like the Pistons, then I hope you live in town.
  16. Looks like the kind of law of convenience where they won't actively monitor roads for scofflaws, but rather will either go after someone on hearsay—which seems pretty likely—or else layer this on top of other charges they bring.
  17. She's Trumpy-cute enough that he might waffle on that.
  18. He had a lot of company about Iran even before he polluted the scene—people whose motivations are honest and therefore manipulable.
  19. Jesus, we totally had those guys in a box and Trump let them out.
  20. God bless the United Shakes.
  21. I think it might be down to a 75% chance.
  22. Both those guys made millions and millions in the game.
  23. I meant down side for us, the people who depend on democratic institutions and constitutional freedoms. Lack of regulation as a feature works great for oligarchs in putatively enemy countries.
  24. I've been cycling through nine-month CDs since those have been the best combination of high rate and short term flexibility. As they have been maturing and rates have stayed elevated, I've been renewing. Once they start maturing with rates starting to drop, I may start rolling over into longer term CDs at that point to lock in higher rates. I've already gotten burned (or maybe more like singed) on a 5-year CD I got in at 4% earlier in the year. Fortunately my entire retirement doesn't depend on that, but that's when I started cycling through nine-monthers.
  25. I think the overtraining might have been worsened in the past decade or so by the accelerated trend toward seeking ever-greater velocity coupled with movement, driven by the need to generate swing-and-miss in order to avoid the home run at all costs.
