Merry Christmas Chad, to you and your family! Thanks for keeping XI going strong another year!

Happy Birthday, DJ!

Hot body, but a fugly face! LOL! Yes, creepy!

Sorry I had to miss it this year! Holiday get togethers already, so didn't even get a round in! Sounds like a fun time was had. RIP to our Fallen!

Condolences Wild. Sorry for your loss.

Happy Birthday Ted!! Have a good one!

Welcome to the site and the servers BigDog! Been fun shooting at you since you've been joining us in DM. Good player and seem like a fit here - we're all about the same opinion on the ganes, though certainly try our other game servers - COD2, 4 or BF. Nice group and a blast to play here, even though we're a bunch of Idiots!

Like Johnny, except I've been in the Detroit "burbs" all my life, have seen the decline as the automotive declined here. Detroit is now under 700,000 people, from 1.2 million is 1980. So those pics show half the homes gone as the result. An interesting tidbit I even only recently learned of - there has not been a grocery store in Detroit, like a Meijer, Walmart Yes, even they stay out!), Kroger, etc. for decaeds. The Eastern Market, is the only area to buy produce and such, other than small corner markets. Sad, but they would just get robbed and people shot! So residents must go to the burbs to shop. In its heyday, Detroit was a "sister" city to Chicago and much like it, other than the dependancy on the auto industry. As the Japanese cars arrived, coupled with a union that got rediculously greedy (higher cost), so sales dropped. So, here we are. Fortunately, people like Mike Illitch, owner first of Little Ceasars pizza chain and now owner of both the Tigers and the Red Wings (gotta love and repect him for that!) are trying to revive the city. He helped with getting the Tigers a new stadium and soon the Wings will have a new arena. The Lions have a fairly new stadium, as well (owned by the Ford family)! Of course, the city also has had to endure a corupt political system (mayor Kilpatric, and a few before him). But looking at all that vacant space, maybe it gets turned around with the right people, police (where's that Robocop dude, anyway?) the city can turn around. Meanwhile, I'll stay in the outskirts and visit now and again!!

Yes!!

Love that dirty rock!

Lol! I've done that! Not the complaint part tho!

yep, a few rounds for sure!!

Welcome Back Beers!! Now get us some tank maps in DM - been kind of light lately!! LOL!!

Happy Birthday, Dadda!!! Have a good one!

Happy Birthday, you old Dawg!

Happy Birthday Angus!!!

Happy Birthday, TSW!

So sorry to hear this news, RIP. My condolences to you and your family.

These two guys need to replace Al Sharpton and Jessie Jackson, immediately! This needs to be the "cause", not keep the excuses and blame going!

Happty Birthday, aye!

Pretty cool, Ter, that our "brothers'" in the north would do that! That actually happened at a Red Wings game I was at a couple years ago. The mic quite on Karen Newman (our regular gal that does a great job of it) and the fans immediately picked up and finished it! Brought tears to my eyes to hear 20 thousand plus sing it together! I must confess, though, I don't know all the words to the Canadian anthem!! I suppose I should know by now after watching enough hockey games!

I'm thinking it's bomb squad stuff and he's holding a bomb?!
