I really don't care about the "motorcycles are dangerous" stats. To me its not about whether they are dangerous its about big government controlling our lives and choices. As long as your choice is unlikely to hurt somebody else Government should not be quick to control that choice. Should we ban al...

...... motorcycles really have no place in modern society. Huh? Not sure I get that. Sure they are inherently dangerous. But that is mostly about other people not paying attention. In any case lots of things have a bit of a built in danger. If you google up dangerous activities I suppose someone co...

It's obvious Leach does have a gambling issue because that is all he talks about. It isn't all he talks about....far from it. The definition of a gambling problem is somebody who loses more than they can afford. Does anybody here have evidence that is the case with Leach? And even if he did why wou...

He does have a gambling issue and Valenti.....was really trying to get him to stop gambling and when Leach didn't stop Valenti had enough. If that is true then Valenti is a bigger narcissistic a$$ than I imagined. 1. Where does Valenti come off deciding who has a gambling problem? 2. Where does Val...

Craig- It was regarding the NCAA Tournament. I found this: https://www.google.com/amp/detroit.cbslocal.com/2016/03/17/follow-along-with-the-valenti-and-foster-and-dan-leach-ncaa-tournament-bet-audio/amp/ Thanks for the link. :blink After listening its curious that Valenti arranged the "bet" so he h...

I agree 100% that Mike has a genuine dislike for Leach, but Leach is a super easy going guy I know Mike has always given Dan shit, but it accelerated notabley after Dan lost the bet and wouldn't let Mike delete his Twitter account even though he agreed to the terms. I have a strong feeling that Dan...

Let's give another perspective. First, bullshit on Bill and Valenti not getting along. A lot of you guys take MV's ball busting as actual animosity. I'll admit that some personalities at the station are more sensitive than others and don't care for his being a smart ass, but it's not real. Mike is ...

I believe short term Wojo will go solo. The show runs short when the Tigers have home games. Sometimes away games too.

Btw...Dan Leach is the worst Broadcaster I've ever heard.He's proof, if the death of Radio. I realize everybody has their own personal preferences and tastes. I realize Dan Leach ain't the greatest guy to ever talk in to a microphone. But I still don't get the level of vitriol toward the guy that m...

If the ratings were high most likely Moss is right saying Bill was not well liked by the staff at 97.1. Also kind of strange Stoney just signed a new deal and already has a new partner. I certainly have no insight. But again it would seem management would be reluctant to break up a working formula....

While I never wish unemployment on anybody I never cared for the guy. Certainly his forte (if he had one) was pop culture, not the best fit on a "sports" station. And his ego was too much for me. When it comes to ratings all I ever see as a layman is the composite. But I wonder if that morning time ...

zzand wrote: My own health care costs are around a grand a year...

Can you clarify that? Do you mean that is generally the costs you incur or do you mean that is what you pay for insurance?
The thing is unless you suddenly drop dead eventually your "grand a year" is going to balloon when you get sick.

By sit out you mean just the presidential part of the ballot?

I appreciate the suggestion, but phpBB has generally served me (and I hope - all of you!) well. I am not an advanced web page designer or anything close to that. My hosting service is familiar with phpBB and so am I, so that's what I plan to keep using for the foreseeable future. I am a fan of this...

Bryce and I are often on different sides of issues. This is one where we are very much in agreement. As I suggested in the other anti-cop thread started by Lovinlife101 cops are far and away more likely to be murdered by a civilian/citizen than a civilian/citizen is likely to be killed by a cop. If ...
