The problem is you have a very narrow, and self defined, definition of “the left”. You’ve done this before where you pretend your sides **** doesn’t stink sometimes. And that’s objectively not true. And I say this as an adoptive member of the left. Yet I am sometimes reminded why I previously wasn’t. The idea of “impact” and “reach” isn’t quite relevant because most of the reach by the right is an ideological bubble so whether it’s 10,000 or 1M, the same number of votes take place.

There is a contingent of Obama/Trump voters. I think Bernie played into their thinking.

Yep. Several of my leftie friends are always sharing stuff that's wrong. A lot of it comes from Occupy Democrats. And some of it gets shared here. I'll throw out an example. On Good Friday a big fuss was made, and i fell for it too, about the Pentagon "Banning Catholics" from a service. That's not what happened. The Pentagon held a Good Friday service and specified there would not be a catholic mass. People took that to mean a snub. It actually wasn't. Catholics don't celebrate a mass on Good Friday. They will go to church and do stations of the cross and all of that but it's specifically not a mass, by design. I viewed that as kind of an expectation setter that this is not going to be mass if you were expecting one. Catholics could still go to the service.

Yeah I go with Chicago over anyone… except those cops in The Fugitive. “She was more rich”.

When does it get fun?

Yikes. I had no idea he was on there.

He's the same as he's always been the difference this time are the people around him following through with his crazy ****. That's what is scary.

cool thread title bro

good news, thanks for doing that Bert.

eh, Tim already had 2 WS championships and they won the year before in '67 so he could get over it. 🙂

2 weeks. No joke. Two weeks. He’s just ****ing with us.

The 25th and impeachment/removal will never happen. Never. You need Republicans for that. The only good Republican is a retired Republican. Gut it out or death. That’s our option. Nobody is going to rescue us. Not podcasts and not the media. The only hope is some wipeout in the elections that presents supermajorities that could lead to proper impeachments. Remove Trump. Remove Vance. Remove Hegsetth. Install the new speaker.

Random memories. Pudge Rodriguez hitting the homer off Fausto Carmona to win it. “Into the night!” was the call by DD. Bonderman giving up a lead in MN.

and especially since half that cabinet might believe they'd be fired from a Vance presidency.

I lean now towards him knowing... no, it doesn't matter. But these missions are planned very carefully and crew emotion and stability is so important on a trip this long, they wouldn't throw that at him unexpected. They are on their way back now. The moon has moved out of the zone they occupied in their loop around.

Brooks was the nicest guy, hands down, that I ever saw at an autograph show. After that experience I heard the same from so many others. I was at the HOF right after he died and his plaque was decorated with flowers, like they always do when someone passes.

I've read they did know but it wasn't an official source. But watching I got the impression he didn't.

Ace Frehley was supposed to be at the Token Lounge like a week after he died.

The Machine Shop

CDR Wiseman didn't know they were going to do that, based on his reaction. For those not watching, his wife died in 2000, so he is raising his 2 girls. They made some crater/spot naming requests and Jeremy Hansen requested "Carroll" in honor of her.

yeah I think his mind is just so quick. It reminds me of morning radio when they would do drops. He probably grew up on that stuff so it's second nature. I do the same thing, not as funny, but I could be in a work meeting and someone will say something that reminds me of a movie I love. That's where my mind goes. I don't think he has a list of funny things to say.

No. The Pistons have played 5 playoff games there, losing all 5. Last year they lost 3 home game by a combined 6 points. No team has won a playoff game there yet

I could see someone like Lou Whitaker not even realizing he didn't have his regular glove. "It's just a glove, man".

I think the answer lies within each player. At this level everything is so precise. Our own experiences aren't really relevant any more than it would be a weekend golfer comparing themselves to a touring pro. Some might prefer another glove and others might prefer the same. It's not one answer.

So the "network" that runs FanDuel will be gone... I assume that DSN will take over that 'slot' on cable/satellite systems? Will the Pistons integrate into DSN? Or will they do their own thing? The entertainment entities between the Gores and Ilitch company merged into the 313Presents, which used to be Olympia and Palace Sports and Entertainment. So there is precedent to them merging some things and obviously they share LCA. Granted you have statues of the Red Wings and the Giant Steve Yzemran picture holding the cup so one would be forgiven to thinking it's a hockey arena the Pistons play in, but other than that they do have fair share of Piston props throughout the concourse. And this spring could be fun. That's gotta rub Chris Ilitch the wrong way a little bit, if the Pistons, a tenant, take over LCA. They built that big plaza out front for fans to party in for playoff games and...
