  1. "shot"? The correct word is "murdered".
  2. MAGA doesn't even understand this. The Moron (Trump) leading the blind and the stupid (MAGA).
  3. What I would like to see, is... The door slammed in this Admin's face. In Trump's face, in his "advisor's" faces. "It's Trump on the line? Hang up. We won't speak to him until his tariffs are dropped. You can tell him we're busy making deals with other countries, but not America." I would love to see Trump's reactions if/when multiple other countries REFUSE to even speak with the U.S., while they are cutting deals with other countries. I can see him blowing his gasket and his eyes popping right out of his head...
  4. In other words: Trump is trying to turn our country into Russia because he wants to "BE" Vladimir Putin and bilk billions and billions of corrupt dollars into his own pockets. For life. Oh, and he also wants to execute reporters who say bad things about him. Just like Vladimir Putin.
  5. The team keeps saying that he is "crushing it". That he looks like a monster. They're talking about putting him at one of the guard spots this year. If he ends up starting at some point, and... "crushes it"... No, not an overpay. But as you said... it's all wait and see at this point.
  6. I'm looking only at draft positioning at this point. They're not yet good enough. Disappointing season. But we need some lottery luck to get my top target Porter Martone... top 2 pick in my opinion. Maybe we settle for 6'6" RHD Radim Mrtka?
  7. shoot me but I loved the Bourne Identity car chases...
  8. I would be happy with Porter Martone who hits everybody within reach, is a long lost Tkachuk brother, or cousin, or something, gets ALL the pucks at the wall and parks in front of the net with a dangerous stick, racks up the goals and points as a true 6'3" beefy power forward... and was made to win in the playoffs and the Stanley Cup Finals. Misa would be awesome. But I'm secretly hoping for Brendan Shana... errr, Parker Tkachuk... err, I mean Martone. But these guys are pipe dreams anyways because Detroit is not allowed lottery luck. Only lottery shafted... up the... Tailpipe.
  9. I guess it's time to watch for draft position if we haven't been already... And... Lotteries suck ass. I hate them.
  10. Yeah... I'm definitely not in the "all our eggs in one basket" camp. We're in the same "let Brad do all the magic he wants to" camp...
  11. If Trump really wants Greenland, he should: 1) Carve out the territory that 95% of Greenlanders currently live in. That is a small strip of southwest coastland from the southern tip, and up about 1/3 of the coast. Call that "Independent Greenland" and they can decide whatever they want. Be a part of Denmark. Be a part of America. Be an independent country. Be a commonwealth similar to Puerto Rico, of EITHER Denmark or America... THEY get to choose. 2) Now, Greenland has a pop. of ~53K, of which ~50K live in this strip of land. Trump could take over the balance of Greenland for "security reasons" (our current military and space bases there...). But he can't just TAKE it. He has to make them "an offer they can't refuse". Think Louisiana Purchase. Or the purchase of Alaska. Just spit-ballin' here: $100 Billion to Denmark. $10 Billion to Independent Greenland? (The purchased portion would be called "State of Greenland" as part of the United States?) 6% royalties for ALL natural resources (at wholesale cost) mined or otherwise, from the State of Greenland for the next 100 years. 4% to Denmark, 2% to Independent Greenland residents? And a promise to develop anything within 10 miles of Independent Greenland (let's say Ports, Shopping Centers, Walmarts, anything) only with their approval. Some distance so they don't feel encroached upon. Also: All residents of "Independent Greenland" have passport/visa-free access to the State of Greenland. But I'm just Manifest Destiny'ing here...
  12. He's been FULL of **** for over 40 years, closing in on 50. I guess MAGA never got that memo. Or they just didn't give a ****... that he's completely full of ****. Or... They really are ****-for-brains. Hmmm... "all of the above"?
  13. Nothing is going to happen to ANY of these guys. Nothing.
  14. Don't we have to let him graduate High School first before we send him off to Grand Rapids?
  15. One last note on Marilyn Manson & The Spooky Kids... I believe Trent Reznor had already gotten ahold of this band by the time I was hearing them in the local clubs. Their early sound sounded a lot like Nine Inch Nails. I was in an "Industrial Dance" phase at the time, slam-dancing and all that. I was big on Nine Inch Nails and Front 242 and Sisters of Mercy and Nitzer Ebb at the time... but I never went all in on the Manson. Went a bit too far for me. Just a little extra commentary...
