So says a new study. https://www.newscientist.com/article/2402423-people-feel-more-creative-after-using-cannabis-they-arent/ Research into the connection between cannabis and creativity has found no evidence that the drug boosts ingenuity. But it does make people who use it feel good, which in turn ...

There was a 26 in a 25 violation of an archaic rule.

A rule passed in 1994 is "archaic" in your opinion?

Cut the "cheating" shit out.

Per Meriam-Webster:
"to violate rules dishonestly"

Are you suggesting there were no dishonest rules violations?

So your metric is how many people died through involuntary actions? Suicide is a voluntary action and accounts for a little over half of the gun deaths per year, knocking that number from 48,000 down to around 22,000. Even just stopping right there, about 46,000 people die in a car accident every ye...

I just had a great idea for a TV show...

My idea is you put a bunch of death row inmates onto an island somewhere, and the last one alive gets set free.

Any of you still believers in the fantasy that this is an elite team? I'll bite. Everything is relative. Detroit is still tied for the 2nd-best record in the NFC and sits 2 full games ahead of anybody else in the division. Let's look at their competition: -SF 49ers. Their only "quality' win was ove...

Detroit's comeback effort ended the moment they called their first timeout with just under a minute left in the game. That committed them to an onside kick recovery. Had they instead spiked it, woulda only lost another 10 seconds or so and could have kicked it deep, gotten a 3-and-out, and had the b...

The expiration of the New York Adult Survivors Act sure has women coming out of the woodwork filing lawsuits for alleged sexual assault. This one allegedly happened in 1993. https://abcnews.go.com/US/woman-claims-new-york-city-mayor-eric-adams/story?id=105123810 After 10 or 15 years of not coming fo...

Nope, I think guns are the biggest threat to US citizens.

This statement is just plain factually incorrect as less than 2 percent of deaths each year are caused by guns (and this number includes justified shootings and suicides). Now eating one too many Big Macs on the other hand...

Without more details, it is difficult to give a specific recommendation. For starters, I'd be curious to know how far away from Grand Rapids you actually are as Rockford is quite close. Knowing that the station comes in fine in your car and also knowing that you get "static" on all the radios in you...

I fundamentally disagree with this legislation insofar as if you've committed a crime such that society considers you too dangerous to own a gun for the next 8 years, then perhaps that crime you committed should be a felony and not a misdemeanor. Translation: The better solution would be to make cer...

Matt - are you suggesting MSU's coach should have been suspended for the actions of his players?

It's just a shame Connor was unable to decode the Tug's Thugs attack after the game.

Now there's a deflection if ever I saw one. Those "thugs" were dealt with accordingly, including suspensions and criminal charges.

When it's OSU the entire team could be Charles Manson clones and that's A-OK as long as we win.

The clones are ready to go.

Since Matt just loves my charts and graphs, here is a quick rough graph of Detroit's win-loss record (relative to .500) since 2001. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/3f5d0ee00f5f4673e78241ccb257bb1987b71daa46f24399f5546af81562d918.png For 15 years of "rebuilding," they're worse now than they were...
