• Gov. Walz: We just found out Trump had his branded Bibles printed in China. This dude will even outsource God. But hey, I don’t blame Trump for not noticing the ‘Made in China’ sticker. They put them on the inside, a part of the Bible that he’s never looked at* - By BBA October 11, 2024 at 11:04:42 AM
  • that's good stuff but sadly magas aren't moved by his hypocrisy* - By mtb October 11, 2024 at 11:50:19 AM
    • but I do wonder if Kurt will call for a tariff on Trump now. lol* - By mtb October 11, 2024 at 11:51:48 AM
• Damn the polls, damn the uneducated white male vote, damn the Hispanic male vote, "autoworkers", etc. who are supposedly leaning to Trump. Cannot believe that we are not appealing to enough people in 7 states to pull this fucking thing out. LFG! nm - By sim October 11, 2024 at 10:55:44 AM
• As I’m recalling my early Victard memories… which poster used to refer to having sex with his wife as “treeing” his wife, and how did it get that name?* - By LKLIII October 11, 2024 at 10:45:29 AM
  • I think that was Mahlon. * - By JohnH October 11, 2024 at 10:53:48 AM

• Closest I've ever physically been to Donald Trump. Passed his motorcade on the way to the Tigers game yesterday. Should have taken it as a bad omen* - By MFlyer October 11, 2024 at 10:44:38 AM

  • Same* - By LewisBullox October 11, 2024 at 10:57:05 AM

  • Same. And I think the Big 10 is not what it was cracked up to be - By ny1995v2 October 11, 2024 at 10:45:12 AM
    • Somewhat agree but look at Bama and Georgia. Good but very beatable teams. Impossible to say at this point if B1G is disappointing relative to SEC* - By mtb October 11, 2024 at 11:53:08 AM
    • Not just the big ten though. Last week's chaos plus LSU sucks and Ole Miss had a bad loss etc * - By LewisBullox October 11, 2024 at 11:28:41 AM
      • don't know if LSU really sucks yet. they seem to be the kind of team that could start rolling, guess we'll know a lot more after tomorrow* - By uncwolverine October 11, 2024 at 11:39:15 AM
        • USC beat them. Of course they suck* - By mtb October 11, 2024 at 12:07:37 PM
        • Fair. Big game* - By LewisBullox October 11, 2024 at 11:52:34 AM
    • Agree with all. Would love to see IU as the 3rd playoff team over Iowa. They don't play and IU could very realistically be 11-1* - By uncwolverine October 11, 2024 at 11:17:21 AM
    • who expected USC as a playoff contender? They were basically offense version iowa and lost heisman QB* - By Harbaughdyssey October 11, 2024 at 10:51:25 AM
      • pretty much every top 25 team early in the season is a "playoff contender" * - By uncwolverine October 11, 2024 at 12:04:46 PM
      • Ranked 13th after Week 1, 11th before we beat them* - By ny1995v2 October 11, 2024 at 11:10:12 AM
        • Because they upset LSU week 1* - By Harbaughdyssey October 11, 2024 at 11:13:19 AM
  • Same. I think OSU is the best team in the country and has kind of been coasting so far this year. I think Oregon is in for a shock * - By Spirit October 11, 2024 at 10:42:51 AM
    • Same.* - By Bluebuck October 11, 2024 at 11:07:20 AM

      • 2023 Michigan football was about as good of a college football team as there had ever been and we still were in two very close games* - By Harbaughdyssey October 11, 2024 at 10:57:51 AM
• For as obviously beloved Hank was as a poster, I don’t feel like I knew him well. Did he stop posting for long-ish periods(a few years)?(m) - By LKLIII October 11, 2024 at 10:40:39 AM
  • Certainly his absence during the National Title run was health related. It feels like we were able to get some closure by having him back this year. - By wmu October 11, 2024 at 10:59:23 AM
  • His heyday was 2000-2015. Combative and ornery but ultimately a decent guy.* - By Guns October 11, 2024 at 10:57:17 AM
  • Fair observation. He was not an active poster the last 5 years or so but prior to that and all his health issues, he was a very regular poster for many many years which is why you hear us laud his name. He loved sharing his knowledge of the financial markets with us and of course, we all ate the information up. But there will never be anything again like his LOVE and infatuation with Selma Hayek - one of the best board meme ever. RIP buddy. nm - By sim October 11, 2024 at 10:46:35 AM

    • He also ran the Victardland March Madness contest for over a decade* - By Rich October 11, 2024 at 10:49:44 AM
      • His daily posts of those lost during 9/11, many his friends, followed by his frequent posts of Holocaust victims showed his empathy for others. * - By JohnH October 11, 2024 at 10:53:05 AM
        • He had a lot of loss in his life, I believe punctuated by some kind of family tragedy when he was young. Don't recall the details* - By Rich October 11, 2024 at 10:55:35 AM
  • He took at least a couple of sabbaticals before his health troubles. I started with the very beginnings of this community sometime in 1995. I'm not sure exactly when Hank started posting but he was by 1997 for sure * - By Spirit October 11, 2024 at 10:44:58 AM
• Obama was on fire yesterday. - By GritsGoBlue October 11, 2024 at 10:32:09 AM
  • There was a good moment where he said he bet Donald Trump has never changed a diaper and someone yelled out “just his own”* - By cp October 11, 2024 at 11:03:45 AM
    • I dunno. He might hire someone to do that. * - By hurryup October 11, 2024 at 04:55:09 PM
    • And Obama replied to him something like, "I was thinking about saying that."* - By FlintBlue October 11, 2024 at 12:01:44 PM

  • Poll methodology completely different than 2020. Like comparing nba scoring to 2004* - By BBA October 11, 2024 at 10:26:02 AM
    • Agree, and it's rare to confuse to have polling errors in the same direction..* - By crumbs October 11, 2024 at 10:26:58 AM
  • Spent a couple of hours in a Democratic Party office last night. The place was humming. - By BigAppleBucky October 11, 2024 at 10:24:56 AM
  • It is what it is. Dems are giving it their best shot. If the country wants Trump, I guess we're fucked. I'll choose optimism - there will be plenty of time to be depressed if he wins* - By BigM October 11, 2024 at 10:23:18 AM
    • This is where I am - we just need election to be over - By syrfan October 11, 2024 at 10:32:59 AM
      • "Do something" - Michelle. Not sure why so many posters here want to create the narrative that Trump is going to win. - By ChiWalker October 11, 2024 at 10:37:34 AM
        • I think Trump is going to lose - By syrfan October 11, 2024 at 10:56:11 AM
  • What does Harry want? Switch candidates? Get dem volunteers and donors to give up? If Kamala can't win election by October 1 she never will probably* - By ChiWalker October 11, 2024 at 10:16:53 AM
  • This Harry Enten person should read Cincywolve's post below about Elon Musk's spending on the Trump campaign* - By RampantWolverine October 11, 2024 at 10:12:55 AM
  • We’re fucked* - By P October 11, 2024 at 10:09:07 AM
• NYT on how Elon Musk is trying to buy the election for Trump: - Spending $140-180MM on Trump super PAC - Twitter coordinating with the Trump camp to throttle links to leaked campaign documents - Musk rallying other billionaires to support Trump - Musk temporarily moving to PA @tvietor8 - By Cincywolve October 11, 2024 at 10:04:58 AM
  • Too late for new money to matter to the election.* - By ftb October 11, 2024 at 11:02:34 AM
  • Donald Trump hasn’t sat down for an interview with a mainstream outlet in nearly a month. - By Cincywolve October 11, 2024 at 10:20:00 AM
• Skubal tomorrow vs Undecided. If Skubal is rolling does Hinch let him pitch into the 8th or 9th? He's only pitched 8 once this season* - By uncwolverine October 11, 2024 at 09:59:31 AM
  • He'll do whatever the analytics say, Hinch is married to data.* - By MasterBates October 11, 2024 at 10:10:10 AM
• It sucks that Tester is toast. GOP controlling the Senate is concerning **** - By Cincywolve October 11, 2024 at 09:59:15 AM
• Can someone please post a link to Hank's obit when there is one? I'd like to read his biographical information as I don't know much about him* - By uncwolverine October 11, 2024 at 09:52:52 AM
• I don't have any proof, but I suspect that the prevalence of northern lights over NA (and Connecticut) perhaps dropped down to pull our friend up.* - By BigLake October 11, 2024 at 09:42:59 AM
  • All things considered, passing in the interregnum between the National Championship and the 2024 election, on a night of historically fantastic auroras, seems like enviable timing* - By bluebossa October 11, 2024 at 09:48:13 AM
    • And in between a pair of Yankees wins in the playoffs. (nm) - By GritsGoBlue October 11, 2024 at 09:57:25 AM

• It would be fitting for the Tigers to play Hank's Yankees in the ALCS. And if it's not Detroit, go Yanks. * - By JohnH October 11, 2024 at 09:06:47 AM
• Shocked and saddened to hear this news. RIP, Hank.* - By Cap October 11, 2024 at 09:03:57 AM
• Honest question. There are a lot of former Trump supporters now supporting Harris publicly. This does not happen in a vacuum. There are a lot of 2020 supporters who are against him now. Where does he make that up?* - By CMgoBlue October 11, 2024 at 09:03:12 AM
  • Trump underperformed polling in something like 19-21 primaries .fwiw* - By RK3 October 11, 2024 at 09:32:47 AM
    • Yep, I think pollsters could be overcorrecting to 2016/2020 which ignores the impact of the insurrection, the court cases, his own deterioration. He's not the same Trump.* - By gbmcq October 11, 2024 at 09:38:45 AM
  • He's doing much better with several demographics (e.g. non-white men and male Zoomers).* - By Bluebuck October 11, 2024 at 09:29:11 AM
    • I think that's absolutely wrong, what young people or minorities even answer these polls? I think that's a self selective group that favors MAGA douches* - By Supergoat October 11, 2024 at 10:05:42 AM
    • But is he really or are the polls slanting towards him using old data? I just do not see a huge influx of those type of voters to make up the moderates he is going to lose.* - By CMgoBlue October 11, 2024 at 09:42:32 AM
  • Reason I've been so confident, and I do not think the polls are capturing this. In fact the opposite, they got burned by underplaying support so they are pushing the other way this time around. You've got 25-50% of Haley voters (depending on source) saying they won't support Trump and she got 25% in some primaries AFTER she dropped out. When you look at the backend data, they still have high Republican vote share, wonder how many people don't call themselves Republican any more?* - By gbmcq October 11, 2024 at 09:10:26 AM
  • believe the concern is new voters, namely young white shitheads. Also think many shitheads talked out of voting for him in 2020 have forgotten how miserably incompetent he was at essentially everything. * - By plug October 11, 2024 at 09:08:12 AM
    • I dont think its just white. I think males, under 30, especially non college grads are breaking hard for Fucko - By ChiWalker October 11, 2024 at 09:16:06 AM
      • Hopefully they don’t show up in large number. nm - By sim October 11, 2024 at 10:07:17 AM

    • I think as many or more white shitheads would have died* - By Rich October 11, 2024 at 09:08:55 AM
      • edited to add another group * - By plug October 11, 2024 at 09:10:23 AM
  • The margins in many swing states were razor thing. Less people could turnout because voting may be more difficult than 2020. There are probably people who just get pissed off and vote against the incumbent so they will switch back to trump or old racist/misogynist people too* - By Harbaughdyssey October 11, 2024 at 09:06:24 AM
    • Biden won swing states by more than Trump did in 16. With population shifts, I cannot believe Trump will actually win Georgia or Arizona* - By Rich October 11, 2024 at 09:08:19 AM
      • A lot of his base was very confident he couldn't lose in 20. I suspect it affected his turnout at least by a small margin* - By MFlyer October 11, 2024 at 09:41:11 AM
      • Republicans have been making up a lot of ground with Latino voters.* - By Bluebuck October 11, 2024 at 09:30:42 AM
      • GOP Legislators have been hard at work culling voter rolls and ammending voting laws and how we count ballots **** - By Cincywolve October 11, 2024 at 09:17:06 AM
        • Not in Michigan. I suppose this is true in Georgia* - By Rich October 11, 2024 at 09:21:31 AM
          • Ohio AZ....MI has a few local nutjobs**** - By Cincywolve October 11, 2024 at 09:30:21 AM
      • Harris's support (on the margins) has eroded a bit among minorities which is why those two are in play. Harris being +65 instead of +80 among Black voters or +15 instead of +30 among Hispanics is a significant deal if it does happen.* - By LS&Play October 11, 2024 at 09:10:55 AM
  • I agree with this. I think he picked up evangelicals in 2020, but lost others. The cult is strong but I wonder if fringe cult members will peel off and stay home. Only source of new voters would be - By Rich October 11, 2024 at 09:05:54 AM
    • We are not going to have 2020-level turnout, and lower turnout benefits the Democrats now.* - By LS&Play October 11, 2024 at 09:09:05 AM
    • Contin, Trump had strong turnout in 2020 but Biden did as well. I think Trump does worse this time; only way Harris loses is if she cannot get ppl to vote* - By Rich October 11, 2024 at 09:06:47 AM
