First few plays of this drive were NFL-quality. Good clock management here so far …

This game is hella bonkers

This is an easy top 20 on the list of Most Lions Ever plays, if for no other reason than the TD run on the following play.

I think the only way Favre could be elected senator from Mississippi is to go full bore MAGA. Not just like MAGA, or vote for MAGA. I mean kiss the ring and lip off on MAGA ideas any chance he gets. Become completely identified with MAGA. Basically, forfeit his identity to Trump. If he doesn’t do that, inevitably running against someone else who already has, I don’t see how Favre would win in hard-right MIssissippi.

Thank goodness Penny tackled himself.

Great play by Goff on the two redo.

Again—not at all true.

And now we know for a fact that Republicans want to murder people they suspect of being Democrats.

Well, if there’s anyone who knows radical and sinister firsthand …

I might not agree that we'd be in the same mess with Trump ...

Economic conservatism, at its core, is about the king and his court getting all the money while the serfs exist in poverty, getting paid just enough to feed them just enough to work the next day. Any policy that gives the serfs any more than that is economic liberalism.

Funny how so many people of means believe that everyone must surely have means stashed away somewhere, probably in the dresser drawer along with their bootstraps. Probably why American welfare programs are designed for people of means and their businesses, instead of for people without means.

If Chris Ilitch thinks Miggy is a revenue generator, or at least important to the attendance numbers, that’s all it takes.

So who was behind the The American Rescue Plan, the COVID-19 relief package, the Safer Communities Act, the CHIPS and Science Act, reauthorizing the Violence Against Women Act, rejoining the Paris Climate Accords, the Inflation Reduction Act (allowing Medicare to negotiate drug prices and capping spending at $2,000 per year for seniors), and strengthening NATO in the face of the threat from Putin? Was that all Trump and the Republicans?

My wife and I like to take long driving trips, plus we both have family 300+ miles out of town. But you’ve got me thinking about a potential second all-electric car. We downsized to a single car that’s a hybrid, so maybe if/when we decide on a second car, we go all electric.

He may have nothing left to offer on the field, but Miggy is a revenue generator based on his name, and it is not time for the Tigers to move on from that.

Hoping against hope …

I would prefer my government advocate on behalf to protect my privacy from self-interested corporations of whom I am a target audience member and not a constituent. I would certainly trust my government before I trust the corporations. In any event, it’s no longer reasonable to expect people to have to go completely off the grid in order to safeguard their privacy. We should not have to cede the Internet to corporations to exploit as their owned-and-operated resource.

Cannon running point on Delay Delay Delay. I hope she does something else to try to get him off during the first week of November.

There is some damn fine punctuation in that limerick.

Mostly on the IL.

Shit's starting to get real for Brett Favre. Seems to me his last refuge might be a public interview or press release begging the forgiveness of Jesus and the good Christian people of Mississippi as he admits to some sort of addiction or mental illness, then goes into hiding to wait out the storm. 1 big thing: 🏈 The fall of Favre Photo illustration: Allie Carl/Axios. Photo: Hannah Foslien/Getty Images As more information comes to light in the Brett Favre welfare scandal, one truth is inescapable: the Hall of Famer's legacy is forever tarnished, Axios' Jeff Tracy and I write. Catch up quick: Favre is one of 38 people or organizations sued by the state of Mississippi for fraudulently securing over $70 million in welfare funds originally earmarked for the state's poorest residents. The story first surfaced this spring, when text messages showed Favre secured over $8 million mostly to build a volleyball facility at his alma mater Southern Mississippi, where his daughter played. Some of that money came as payment for supposed speaking gigs that Favre no-showed. But those gigs were just a cover, as the money was always intended to go towards the facility. Favre hasn't been charged with a crime, but that could change as the largest public fraud case in Mississippi history continues to unfold. The latest: Since a corrupt state official pleaded guilty to his role in the scheme on Thursday, more texts have been released showing the extent of Favre's involvement. To cut costs on the volleyball project, Favre suggested using "the prison industry" as builders. He also tried to secure money for an indoor football facility in an effort to recruit Deion Sanders' son. ESPN and SiriusXM have both suspended Favre's weekly radio shows in response to the latest news. The big picture: Favre's past before this scandal wasn't exactly pristine — most notably the sexual harassment allegations against him from a decade ago — but in the public's eye he has largely remained an all-time great athlete, revered for his toughness. Now he's the rich guy who appears to have stolen money from the poorest people in his state. There's no escaping that. "This is diabolical in almost a cartoon villain sense," Jon Stewart said on his podcast over the weekend. What to watch: The Hall of Fame has already received calls from angry fans asking for him to be removed, NYT reports. But his spot in Canton appears safe due to bylaws that don't allow for a player's removal. The bottom line: In the court of law, Favre may never suffer any punishment beyond potentially paying back what he's taken. But in the court of public opinion, it's hard to imagine he ever recovers from this.

Good, because we're going to be hearing a ton and more.

I have my doubts that Manning was so upset simply because he couldn't start this particular game against the Royals. That's nothing to lose your shit over.
