  1. I did my part. Given the results in August I’ll be shocked if we don’t enshrine women’s reproductive rights in the constitution tomorrow. I’m cautiously optimistic about the recreational cannabis issue but I haven’t seen any polling. It could just be wishful thinking on my part. I’m volunteering as a poll worker again. It was pretty rewarding to participate last time so I decided to give it another go. I’ll be a paper ballot judge tomorrow. I’m not committed to doing it again after this but who knows? I said the same thing back in August. GO ISSUES 1 & 2!!
  2. You’re just seeing what you want to see if you genuinely believe that.
  3. Who did your team send to other games to record video of the signals of your future opponents?
  4. Yeah, he’s not going to put U.S. service members at risk. The Israelis are never going to allow fair living conditions to the Palestinian people. There’s not going to be a Palestinian state because Israel doesn’t want one. They’ll just offer shitty deals that no one in their right mind would ever accept then blame the Palestinians for why there’s no Palestinian state. Just like they’ve always done. Whatever comes after Hamas is eliminated, if Hamas is eliminated, will still involve the Palestinian people being treated like shit. Our support of Israel already makes us complicit in that arrangement. Putting U.S. troops on the ground would just make them targets. Sooner or later someone would get killed and then we risk getting sucked into a larger conflict. It would just be asking for trouble to get our own troops involved.
  5. Israel doesn’t treat them like equal humans. That’s not propaganda. That’s fact.
  6. I suppose it’s about as true of Israeli citizens as it is of American citizens. They have their share of the populace that share the extremist ideology of their whack job government just like we have our MAGA crowd.
  7. Kind of a sweeping generalization there, don’t you think? What about Netanyahu and his coalition of right-wing religious nationalists who are trying to overthrow the judiciary?
  8. One of the posters here has Shelby Foote as his avatar. I forget who. Maybe he’ll show up and give us his take.
  9. “Then you shouldn’t have put it in my refrigerator.”
  10. What good would an asteroid strike in Ann Arbor on November 11 do for you?
  11. You mean like it was before one nation promised another nation the land of a third nation? Foreign Office November 2nd, 1917 Dear Lord Rothschild, I have much pleasure in conveying to you, on behalf of His Majesty's Government, the following declaration of sympathy with Jewish Zionist aspirations which has been submitted to, and approved by, the Cabinet. "His Majesty's Government view with favour the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people, and will use their best endeavours to facilitate the achievement of this object, it being clearly understood that nothing shall be done which may prejudice the civil and religious rights of existing non-Jewish communities in Palestine, or the rights and political status enjoyed by Jews in any other country." I should be grateful if you would bring this declaration to the knowledge of the Zionist Federation. Yours, Arthur James Balfour
  12. I’m now seeing -32.5. I wasn’t trying to quote myself.
  13. Not outside. Inside. Surprised no one has addressed this yet. Michigan insider John U. Bacon was a guest on Bobby Carpenter’s Columbus radio show last week and he pointed at Michigan alum/booster and Minnesota Vikings minority owner Jim Stapleton as being the leaker. He said he hates Harbaugh and blackballed him as a candidate for the Vikings’ coaching job. He’s a former regent for Eastern Michigan University and is currently on the NCAA infractions committee. Bacon isn’t the sort to make up anything out of whole cloth so it’s a good bet that his allegation is at least credible. You can lists to his interview here: https://www.971thefan.com/episode/john-u-bacon-johnubacon-michigan-author-10-25-23/ My book has it at -32 though. It will probably move farther.
  14. Michigan doesn’t need to know Purdue’s play calls to cover that spread. Purdue is dreadful, the weasels are pissed, and Harbaugh won’t hesitate to run up the score. It’s a night game at the big house and Michigan has had two weeks to prepare. Purdue, who is coming off a double-digit loss at Nebraska, of all places, is walking into a buzzsaw.
