Re: City of Grand Haven evicts WGHN-FM from tower due to lease violations

It's good that WGHN is repaying all the money taxpayers inadvertently subsidized for its electricity bill over umpteen years. If the outright sale of WMPA ever closes, perhaps those proceeds are already spoken for? Otherwise, seems to me the city could've incorporated a springing payment balloon in...

Re: Sinclair’s Sports Channels Prepare Bankruptcy, Putting Team Payments at Risk

I believe Diamond is keeping all the teams that grant it streaming rights such as Detroit's three. They can get paid in market by cable and app streamers, and out of market by ESPN streaming. I hold to the view as many others, RSN is necessary for the NBA, NHL & MLB. MLB is covering the lions share ...

I avoid Dave Ramsey, Suzie Orman and the like. I check my oil weekly, add oil to make sure it is on full if any has burned off or leaked out, and change my full synthetic oil every three months or 3k miles. Why waste money paying to change my oil too often? Project Farm on youtube has a great video ...

Re: Jimmy Kimmel is a democrat political hack

Watch Jimmy Kimmel clips from 'The Man Show' and then several years later he was quivering about the Republican judge in Alabama running for Jeff Session's seat. I do not know if the Judge was a sex pervert in the 80's or if he was on some mall security watch list... But when things go unclaimed for...

It is illegal for police unions to go on strike? I assume this is a federal law.

Re: Republicans are to blame for the deficit

Historically deficits came down under every President since Reagan, then they ballooned under Reagan and haven't stopped. But there are numerous factors such as world trade decimating so many American industries, finally ending the gold standard in the 70's, Americans living longer and less healthy ...

Bally is advertising $5 off a month for new subscribers through 3/6 for 12 months. Yes they will go bankrupt, but they will continue on and on and on and become a never ending punch line for some. Either listen on the radio or pay up. Bally will stay in the most premium cable packages because of the...

Re: Desantis to Drain Swamp Moving Federal Agencies Out of DC

The Unions would never go for this UNLESS you allow them to work from home, and then they will happily let you move their headquarters to Barrow Alaska while they work in their night gowns.

Re: Bally Sports Regional Sports Networks preparing for bankruptcy

Since the Red Wings are decent, I just started paying $21 a month for the app right before the All Star break, couldn't have time it worse! I probably will cancel it in April. I think the production is good but the app for me is glitchy where at least once I will lose video and retain audio causing ...

Re: Pope Benedict Dead

I would add one more thing about the Benedict admirers in the Catholic Church and that is that they tend to support classical education which is weird. The liberal arts are stereotyped... For making people liberal! So really, calling Catholics who praise Benedict and hate the Democrat party conserva...

Re: Pope Benedict Dead

It is strange to call Benedict conservative or Francis liberal. Francis would not allow a blessing for gay couples because a Priest 'can not bless sin'. Francis has called Biden's position on abortion 'incoherent'. Francis shocked Detroit by making Father Coughlin's church a basilica early in his po...
