1984Echoes

I think this is a key point. If Carpenter and/or Malloy, and I'll even toss Parker Meadows out there... forced their way onto Detroit's roster... then a move or two may be contemplated. My guess is the first move is to DFA Schoop though. Miggy to the IL will have to wait until the team is cornered (or Miggy actually IL's) for this move.

We got locked into all of his bad years because of the extension he signed. Nothing to be done about it except (on my part) to gripe and groan. A lot.

The problem is that two minutes later we'll all be complaining: "why are we the "least" athletic team in the league"? Isn't **** just a younger Bojan, in essence? I don't think that will really be true with Ivey and Duren on the court ("least athletic"... not with those two) but I'm just saying. I want fast, athletic, excellent D, and can spot up shoot the 3-Lights Out. I don't care about handle, I don't care about interior creativity. At least a decent passer is probably also a requirement but... I am desperately requesting some 3&D wings at this time. I don't think Livers is enough. Just my 2 cents.

No thank you. I also want the "D" part of 3&D. Not just the 3's, and that's it. I want some freaking D on this team (sorry... that's just me or maybe it's not just me... but... where's the "D"?)

I really love it that the U.K. has taken the lead in several instances here...

No seriously... Little Miss Valentyna... I won't say her last name, from Kherson, Ukraine... Looks like she could be Olga's older sister. Not joking.

CUE: DeSantis Alligator Tears... lots of them...

That be me.

She looks almost exactly like a buddy of mines wife.

PS: And how could anyone in their right mind go against this little sweetie...? Omigosh... Little Miss Olga (also known as the Ukrainian "Witch"): https://www.businessinsider.com/witch-olga-bigar-ukraine-civilian-mortar-platoon-commander-bakhmut-2023-4

Republicans are compromised. Not 100%. But they are rampant with Putin Boot-Lickers. Based on Trump's 20-years boot-licking of Putin in search of some Trump Towers Moscow. Or a white supremacist love of Russia's all-white Christian fascism. How absolutely pathetic.

To whit: Patriots are smacking down Russian Hypersonic Missiles... as if they were nothing!!!

And it continues... 1992-2023... so far (so good).

Where do you get scared? It's called a Communism/ Fascism Smackdown. FYI.

Are you CELEBRATING THIS? I mean... seriously... just asking...

Yeah I wasn't commenting specifically on Miller's chances of getting to #5 as much as (1%? Probably... but then stranger things have happened so I don't want to completely rule him out... but most likely...): My interest in a SF-sized 3&D guy. I don't want an athlete that can't shoot. Or a PG that can't shoot. If we lost out on #1 my next target was Miller. But if Whitmore and Hendricks also fall into that bucket of "can hit the 3/ excellent spot-up shooter/ excellent defense", and maybe they're better defenders/ not quite as good a shooters as Miller which could still work, then those 3 are the guys I'm looking at. Maybe Weaver is correct that there's little difference between 3 to 8. On that... I can live with whoever falls to #5 and I won't sweat it if Miller ain't there. But I still hate mf'ing lotteries just like the Bubonic Plague... I don't give an "F" about tanking... but that's just me. I'm really getting annoyed over Detroit teams getting screwed in nearly every single lottery though...

So our options for a 3&D at the #5 spot are: Miller/ Whitmore/ Hendricks...? and at least one if not more than one will be available at #5. I guess we'll have to live with that.

I didn't state that he replaced 3,000 agents. Quit misrepresenting my posts. Or else find where I stated that specifically. He replaced all of his Secret Agents (purged) that were not loyal to him with loyal supporters. That does not say he replaced 3,000 agents. He has corrupted the Secret Service. That also does not state 3,000 agents were replaced by him. Corrupted enough that Biden took specific actions: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2020/dec/31/joe-biden-secret-service-team-trump-loyalty PS: Tell me how Pence reacted to his Secret Service agents when they tried to get him into a car on Jan 6th? He absolutely trusted them, correct? Oh wait... they weren't CORRUPTED, were they?

What you quoted has nothing to do with bump stocks. I am speaking specifically about muzzle velocity and it's relationship to "battlefield" or "sonic" damage. Also called "stress cavity" as a result of the shock wave from the bullet. You disputed this (different conversation that we had a month or two ago...); let me know when you catch up here... Such a big difference that there were ONLY 500 casualties in Las Vegas. From ONE MAN/ shooter! Congratulations. 😖

I don't have to believe this, it's the truth. He purged his assigned Secret Service agents and replaced them with loyal supporters only, in the Secret Service. The culmination on Jan 6th...? This: https://www.newsweek.com/secret-service-ties-donald-trump-ring-alarm-bells-jan-6-revelations-1720584

It was MAGA so they let the dude pass through... Secret Service is compromised/ corrupted. Beginning with Trump's purge and recruitment of Trump supporters only in the SS.

The Tigers moved up in this years draft. Not the Wings or Pistons but...

Totally ****ed by the lottery. I F'ing HATE lotteries. Just in case I haven't mentioned that before...

Keith has added 120 points to his OPS tonight, so far... From .791 to .912
