I agree. I was wondering whether the actor is actually from Detroit. I don’t remember anybody around me sounding like that when I lived there.

Usually I just assume that people who promote horrible reactionaries are merely cynical partisan hacks, but every once in a while I have to wonder whether they are just aggressively ignorant or even stupid. Otherwise, how can they not see what’s so blindingly obvious?

Crockett did hide it in a more sophisticated hypothetical, but even without that it was an acceptable level of raising the stakes, and Greene did open the door to the whole thing by being indecorous in the first place. I don’t know if they’re smart enough or deep enough to strategize aforethought, like, “I’ll just mention a minor thing, they’ll go over the line in their response, and then they’ll get blamed for the whole thing”, but that did appear to be the goal here, and it did work for their side. I’m as close to 100% certain as I can be that had Greene not called out the physical appearance of Crockett, Crockett would not have called out Greene’s appearance at all. In this new age of playground insults in politics, I don’t blame Crockett at all for not just grinning and bearing it. I say, good for her.

Probably because we’re up 13-0.

There are exactly two guys out of the 14 playing that game who are on tonight’s roster.

Javy with five ribs to stake us to a 13-0 lead. These are the anti-Tigers right now.

The guy in the Detroit’s In Us spot for Bally, with the mustache in the garage—anyone know who he is?

I would like to know the story of Wenceel Perez getting to this point.

Working the count really only works if you know what to do with a hittable pitch when you get it.

There’s a kind of Josh Lewin-Gibby vibe in the booth tonight.

Skubal sure is sitting for a longtime. Hope that’s a good thing.

BERT!

You never said it was a controversial pick. The 2020 draft was a special case since a first baseman was the consensus #1 pick who would have been selected by every team who didn't have someone already blocking him.

Tiger hitters are digging the dry heat.

I’m sorry, but that was just a torking dumb play, even though it worked this time.

It’s nice to string hits together for runs, but they gotta jack some bombs, too

Good lord, did Tork just get a hit to the right side?

Very insulting to thirteen-year-olds. 😏

Agreed, they don't know what socialism is, and yes, it was a cold war cudgel and continues to be. It's become a magic swear word all over again.

I didn't articulate my thoughts quite exactly but that's basically what I meant. Ford and his advisors may have concluded that prosecutions would have overshadowed his entire presidency and would definitely have cost him the election (which it ended up doing anyway), and he would have to weigh in on it every single day, because as you say it would have been all anyone would have wanted to talk about. Instead, Ford thought it better to rip off the band-aid, pardon Nixon, take the immediate blowback, and get it over with so he could move on to some semblance of a normal presidency, which, of course, could never be because it was still overshadowed by Tricky ****—as well it should have been.

All the funds these yahoos paid into Medicare, and Social Security for that matter, with their taxes went to pay for benefits for retired recipients while these yahoos were working, and not into an account with their name on it.

After January 3, the only time Boobert will hear herself being called "gentlelady" is in OnlyFans requests.

Maybe the deal was less about actually becoming President and more about not drowning his presidency in Nixon's prosecution.
