My taste in music leans closer to Brandi Carlisle and classic rock as well as Americana music. I will say up front I've never been a Kid Rock fan, or heavy metal, the closest was probably fascination with The Steve Miller Band. I'm an old fart. That said I found the music and production from last night's Half Time Show to be a very joyous celebration. The production aspect was excellent, even more so after reading Wired's report about how the managed to get everything he wanted accomplished in the time restrictions and the confines of the NFL guidelines because the field had real grass. I don't care if I couldn't understand the lyrics. To those who complain go to the opera sometime, try an evening at your symphony or a community band. You just might learn something by expanding your horizons. Edit, link to Wired piece https://www.wired.com/video/watch/untold-story-bad-bunny-historic-super-bowl-halftime-show

BTW, guess who isn't in the Epstein files? OBAMA

I don't know. This sounds a lot like the pre MAGA GOP....

I think it's a combination of "it's a tourist thing, and we ate there when I was young..." I agree, neither of the above is my must go to's. Then again I've been there, done that, bought the Xmas ornament, Much like places here that get a lot of social media recommendations. They are OK, not great. I include the Colonial Williamsburg Taverns as well as the hotel, The taverns (Kings Arms and Christiana Campbells) are for the novelty, the food is good but not great. The couple of times we've dined at the Hotel, I found the food to be mediocre, but it's also buffet style. There are several places nearby that I prefer.

Another on of his “fine people”

Old radio guy, I think he qualifies for the old AM stations' Music of Your Life format...

Spending the week on vacation. Got into the resort in time for kickoff so I missed the pregame concert. But between Brandi Carlisle, the heartfelt National Anthem and the halftime show. All have outclassed the actual game

That music has a beat and I can dance to it. That's all I ask

The Javy banning was done by the governing body of the World Classic not MLB. Totally separate Organizations

It looks like we are trading parts of an area south of Richmond for a middle finger heading into DC. The new and improved 8th district.

The current Ninth District has been that way for a while. Rural and stretches from Halifax/Danville up thru the Charlottesville suburbs. Very Red. The last couple of GOP nominating votes were a real bear

And I have a mansion in Greenland I'm giving away

Nothing has been confirmed. But if it was is shows gross negligence on the part of the so called POTUS. What else have "staffers" been making decisions and deals on in his name.

It never made NBC's live coverage

It's going on the new $3 bill

Mine has. He's started emailing lots of press releases lately, still won't answer questions. I do think he's running scared, even though his seat may be be the safest in the redistricting plan. It also looks like We're being moved to a new district if it passes

I'm starting to lean in favor of multi member districts. Over simplified divide the individual states into 3, 4, 5 districts depending on size and then vote multiple members. Much like the college board of trustee elections or Supreme Court elections in Michigan. If a state is divided 60-40 demographically, the reps in that state should probably fall that way as well It's not going to happen but our current system as it stands sucks

If passes, it goes to the voters 4/21

Not trying to be too argumentative, but I would assume WJBK has an agreement with the Fox Network to carry their network programs. I'm sure the network would balk at giving up prime space 5-6 nights a week to local programing. Especially in a market the size of Detroit. The sub-channel, which is most likely on most cable systems, whomever it may be Comcast or whatever. Placing the games on a channel that carries old movies, western, detective shows, etc gives Fox the opportunity for extra revenue. Since WJBK is a Fox owned and operated station I really don't think the parent company would allow the move. As I've said before, if the Tigers go to over the air TV it would be to someone like Channel 20. Either that or they'll set up their own streaming platform with the RedWings with the help of MLB Production facilities.

I've been out of the market for nearly 6 years. I just checked what WJBK's Fox 2.2 sub channel carries. Old movies, westerns, etc. It's not their main channel. I'm sure revenue from Tigers, Wings, and possibly the Pistons would bring in more $$$ than that.
