  1. It sounds as if they are doing the opposite of destroying the country. They are putting country ahead of party. Your Republican party has become a huge disgrace. It no longer has any principles, conservative or otherwise. It is all about serving a cult leader. You should be ashamed of your yourself falling for that con.
  2. I agree the committee is a waste of time. I already know Trump and those around him including everybody involved in the insurrection are a disgrace. Trump broadcast the whole thing ahead of time. There's not much to analyze.
  3. I still think their current skill level is in between their poor start and their last five months. I am hoping Avila/Hinch are looking at their final record as they approach the winter rather than thinking that they are an above .500 team already. At the same time, I look at the rosters of some of the playoff teams and they don't appear to be hundreds of miles ahead of the Tigers. I think The Tigers can get close with a good off-season.
  4. He never says anything directly, not even during his presidency. He sends out clear signals to his two groups of supporters, the ignorant populists who worship him and the extreme right wingers who use him. He reaches both groups quite well.
  5. I don't think Biden really ever had any strong support. He only won because who he ran against. Thank God.
  6. Wily Peralta's peripherals suggest he'll be terrible next year. Not interested in seeing him signed.
  7. Benke is still around. He comes up with Tigers trade scenarios all winter on Twitter.
  8. I am not convinced either. I am also not convinced that he didn't know about it initially.
  9. We'll see in two years. I don't have a problem with Candelario. I just don't think signing him long term is a priority.
  10. At least they have jobs. The cubs fans are all unemployed.
  11. I like Candelario for the next couple of years, but he doesn't seem like a player that needs to be signed long term. He is adequate both offensively and defensively, but doesn't hit quite well enough to offset further slippage in defense which may happen soon.
  12. Looking at the Rays season statistics and watching some of the series, they don't look like a championship team. The Red Sox really don't either. Toronto is better than all the AL East teams.
  13. I remember when many Tigers fan were saying that Turner was untouchable and they would be pissed if the Tigers traded him.
  14. I don't like R. I use it sometimes because it does some things other languages don't do well. However, I think it's unnecessarily complex for performing simple tasks.
  15. Not since I stopped working for government.
  16. Nothing like that has happened in the Tigers organization for a while. There was that situation in Toledo involving a suspicious death, large gambling debts and connections to the Adduci family, but Toledo law enforcement claimed it was a coincidence.
  17. Every company makes decisions which don't look good from the outside. That doesn't mean anyone can qualify for jobs at these companies. The people that make the ultimate decisions sometimes do things for different reasons than those on the outside think. They even sometimes make decisions that are different than analysts and scientists within the company would make.
  18. Their hiring requirements seem quite high to me. I have been working in statistical programming and analysis for about 30 years and I feel like I barely qualify for some of the analytical positions. The requirements change too as new tools become available. For example, I don't do machine learning on my job. I've played around with it, but I haven't done enough of it to claim I am proficient.
  19. He is one of the most attractive free agents in a long time. Teams won't be afraid to shell out big bucks.
  20. If they don't want to spend, they aren't going get a good shortstop or starting pitcher.
  21. How do you know he's out of range? The video didn't get into specifics and we don't know the Tigers range anyway.
  22. I am always caught in between. As a saber, I appreciate modern strategy, but the old man in me does not always like the aesthetics.
  23. And they weren't that great before which was surprising. Maybe it's positioning or maybe he's a player who make great plays, but is not consistent on routine plays.
