1984Echoes

POINT!!!

PS: Ted's head is dead But it probably still has a keener batting eye (in its current condition) Than some of our current Detroit Tigers. I'm just sayin'...

Ted?

This is the key. No more post-trade deadline collapses please. ... Yzerman has pointedly been trying to add more grit to this team for at least 3 or 4 years, both in his drafting as well as his FA signings... It's time it all comes together and this team is mentally and physically tough enough to get their asses into the playoffs. And that means no collapse after February please.

PS: Which doesn't have **** to do with Biden. What's the REAL REASON for your original comment?

And these are my relatives.

In my opinion... Anyone who believes it KNOWS that it isn't true... Just like they knew "Stop the Steal" was bull****. They WANT the violence. They WANT a civil war. They WANT the fascism.

He quit because: A Criminal Fascist President of the United States is requiring him to commit ILLEGAL CRIMINAL acts of MURDER. If it were me, I would have quit with the public message: "This grotesque mother****ing ****scum fascist president of ours is asking me to commit murder. Go **** yourself Trump. You contemptible mother****er. You and your supporters can go live in Russia if you love fascism so much... Mother****ing scumbags." But... That's me.

I wish I could TRIPLE STAR or "Thank You" this entire message. Brilliant, Tater.

Sort of like all the European Christians who told the Nazi's "Sure take all our Jews and do what you will with them. We could care less." What are our American Christian fascists (MAGA) going to vote for next... Gas chambers?

HUGE PLUS for this perceptive comment...

We care about hypocritical assholes who use the bible as an excuse to conduct murder and fascism.

Or Put ETF's.

And buy Puts.

That about sums it up. NFL officials are corrupt POS's, both on the field and off.

Are you telling us he's not a qualified candidate for the position? Please explain, in your own words, why he is NOT qualified for the position.

I like the sign-Cease idea. Don't know the cost or if he even has interest in Detroit... But I like the idea...

What if we traded Skubal for a huge package and signed Dylan Cease to a 3-year... Not even counting in 2026 what we get back in return for Skubal... What are thoughts about playoff possibilities in 2026? Personally... I think the posts stating we have zero chance in 2026 without Skubal are FAR overstating our demise. It obviously would be much harder to make the playoffs in 2026 without Skubes... But I still believe in the upward trajectory of this team, and that includes Mize, Olson, Flaherty Melton, and whomever else Harris finds to fill out the rotation... So while lessened without Skubal, I think our playoff chances in 2026 are just as good, or possibly even better, than any other team in our division. Thoughts?

Is that similar to the lessons he learned when he signed Michael Lorenzen for 2023 (pitched only half of 2022) or John Flaherty for 2024 (had injury problems in 2020-21-22 but did pitch full in 2023...)? Harris taking flyers doesn't bother me. I like it when he takes the right ones though. Maybe Urquidy will do us right in 2026. Walker Buehler? (OH, and Dylan Cease would be a great sign too, as a few have mentioned here...) I would definitely be interested in taking a shot with Buehler to see if we can help him recover his magic. I'm just sayin'...

And... The White Trash MAGA Bigoted dip****s of this country are too stupid, or just don't care, that THEY are the ones paying this pass-through tax... Just so Trump and his fellow top 1% (maybe even 5%) can line their pockets with tax cuts. To be blunt about it that is... OH, and I just saw a blurb on Bloomberg Finance TV last night that said (paraphrasing) "WOW, Trump's Tariff's have reduced the annual deficit $200 BILLION down to 1.8 TRILLION!!!" Sorry I had to put that in 1984Echoes format... But... We have a 1.8 TRILLION Budget Deficit this year?!?! Because of Trump and his Criminal Republican cohorts again lining their pockets with tax cuts at the expense of the middle class? Not to be blunt... Again... But Trump and his ****scum fascist MAGAt followers and his Criminal Republican cohorts can go **** themselves.

I like the Phillies, Dodgers, and Red Sox prospects. The Red Sox have multiple really nice-looking young pitchers. I didn't like the Yankees or Mets prospects. Not certain who else may try to jump in the ring...

Smartass. 😉

Primarily from multiple paper companies along the Cuyahoga that dumped waste chemicals into the river. It dumps into Lake Erie... hence the common "Lake Erie is on fire" quips.

The Cuyahoga River has a notorious history of fires, with at least 14 recorded incidents, the most famous occurring in 1969, which became a catalyst for the American environmental movement. Overview of Fires The Cuyahoga River, located in Northeast Ohio, has been heavily impacted by industrial pollution, particularly during the 19th and 20th centuries when Cleveland emerged as a manufacturing hub. The river caught fire multiple times, with notable incidents in 1868, 1912, 1948, 1952, and 1969. The 1969 fire, sparked by an oil slick ignited by a train's spark, lasted about 20 minutes and caused approximately $50,000 in damage, primarily to railroad bridges. Wikipedia+1 The 1969 Fire On June 22, 1969, the Cuyahoga River caught fire due to industrial debris and oil slicks on its surface. Although the fire was relatively minor and extinguished quickly, it garnered significant media attention, particularly after Time magazine published an article that described the river as one that "oozes rather than flows". This incident helped to raise awareness about water pollution and its environmental impacts, leading to a broader public outcry for environmental reform. Smithsonian Magazine+2 Impact on Environmental Policy The 1969 fire became a symbol of the environmental crisis in America, contributing to the establishment of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in 1970 and the first Earth Day celebrations. It highlighted the need for stricter regulations on industrial pollution and spurred efforts to clean up the river, which has since seen significant improvements in water quality and ecosystem health. Wikipedia+1 Historical Context Prior to the 1969 fire, the Cuyahoga River had burned multiple times, with the most severe incident occurring in 1952, which caused over $1 million in damages. Despite the frequency of these fires, public concern was minimal, as pollution was often viewed as a necessary byproduct of industrial growth. The changing attitudes towards environmental issues in the late 1960s, however, marked a turning point in public perception and policy regarding pollution and conservation efforts. Smithsonian Magazine+1 Conclusion The Cuyahoga River fire history serves as a critical reminder of the consequences of industrial pollution and the importance of environmental stewardship. The events surrounding the 1969 fire catalyzed a significant shift in environmental policy in the United States, leading to ongoing efforts to restore and protect the river and its ecosystem.

Republicans control the House, the Senate, and the White House. Your Shooms... is complete bull****. If it takes Dem votes to help a REPUBLICAN Senate pass a budget... That means the Pubs MUST negotiate with the Dems. Telling the Dems "**** you" means... It's the Dems fault? BULL****. And you KNOW it.
