Just how bad are the Lions?

Bottom 5 in the league. Can anybody here name 5 teams who are worse than Detroit? Browns, Titans, Jaguars. Maybe the Jets. But that's about it.

Hello 4-12 record.

Re: Clinton on Bernie supporters

Maybe one of the liberal-leaning members of this forum can explain to me why Trump not paying income taxes is such a big deal. He didn't write the tax code. Politicians wrote the tax code. If democrats have a beef with anybody, it should be with those who wrote the law, NOT those who follow it. I ju...

Clinton on Bernie supporters

Some are new to politics completely. They’re children of the Great Recession and they are living in their parents’ basement. They feel they got their education, and the jobs that are available to them are not at all what they envisioned for themselves, and they don’t see much of a future. https://w...

Re: Detroit News Endorses Gary Johnson.

The USA Today just endorsed anybody but Trump.

"Whatever you do, however, resist the siren song of a dangerous demagogue. By all means vote, just not for Donald Trump."

Re: Presidential debate thread

I thought Holt was mostly a non-factor. Biased or not, I don't think it mattered. I disagree. He did six follow up questions/challenges to T Rump's answers. Nary a one for HilLIEry. That indeed is a factor. I meant more because of how Trump just talked right over him. Holt had very little control o...

Re: Presidential debate thread

emails and Benghazi and old and boring and nobody wants to hear about it anymore... it's channel changing material... Well who wants to hear about whether Trump was first opposed to the Iraq war in 2003 or instead in 2004? Or how about lawsuits filed against him back in the 1970s? Isn't that kind o...

Re: Presidential debate thread

I will say Lester Holt did a lousy job as Moderator. He didn't seem to have much control, allowed candidates to spend too much time on petty issues, asked Trump more "gotcha" questions than Hillary, and it's inappropriate of him to dispute a candidate's statements on stage. That task should be excl...

Re: Presidential debate thread

You're not listening... ONLINE polls tend to have more Republicans respond to them... liberal or conservative publication is irrelevant. More Republicans do news online than Democrats.. Do you have evidence to support these claims? I've never heard or read anywhere that republicans get more news on...

Re: Presidential debate thread

Online polls skew Republican... I would hardly call Time and CNBC bastions of conservatism. Trump also won a CBS online poll. That said, I go back to my original statement - nobody really won the debate, and I'm not expecting much, if any, movement in the polls over the next few days. Although, the...

Re: Presidential debate thread

Having watched the whole debate, and before listening to any punditry or reading any comments on facebook or twitter....just a few observations of my own: -Hillary always referred to Trump as "Donald" and at least for most of the debate (until it got nasty at the end), Trump referred to her as Secre...

Presidential debate thread

This seems like a good time to start a thread on this topic. To start, any predictions for what will happen during the debate? Quite frankly I don't know what to expect tonight. I think Trump will be a little more restrained than he was during some of the republican debates, but I think he will outr...

Re: Bold Prediction

It could have been Peebus got to him. This is the most likely scenario. In the past few weeks Preibus has publicly said more than once basically that there were going to be consequences to anybody who signed the pledge but did not honor it. Here....found a link.... It was a pledge, and it wasn't ju...

Re: Second Presidential Debate - Major hurricane brewing?

The afternoon run showed it slamming into mid-Louisiana. The evening run shows it hitting Florida. That will undoubtedly change back and forth many times between now and then (or it may fall apart entirely or not even develop - it is nothing more than a tropical wave right now but apparently conditi...

Second Presidential Debate - Major hurricane brewing?

If the GFS computer model run ends up being accurate (which, this is a LONG ways out so who knows), we could have something close to another Hurricane Katrina hitting on the morning of the second Presidential debate (not the VP debate - but the second Presidential debate on Oct 9). Granted, this is ...
