I'm in Fenton, not far. I'll have to do some research and find out who you are talking about. 🙂

yeah I think his mind is just so quick. It reminds me of morning radio when they would do drops. He probably grew up on that stuff so it's second nature. I do the same thing, not as funny, but I could be in a work meeting and someone will say something that reminds me of a movie I love. That's where my mind goes. I don't think he has a list of funny things to say.

Cool story, Biff! Isn't it cool when your favorite artists are still playing 40/50 years later? You figure as long as health issues don't hit any of the band members, they'll probably still be doing it 10 years from now as well. Really, it's super cool. Cooper will be playing until something health wise keeps him from doing it. He'll probably die on stage. We saw Motorhead's last show in Detroit. I'm guessing Lemmy about four months later. We had never seen Motorhead before until that night. Again, that was one of those groups that I probably would never go to see by themselves, but as part of a night's acts, why not. You know you are going to like them. And more often, when you see someone live, you like them about 40% more than before you saw them live.

No. The Pistons have played 5 playoff games there, losing all 5. Last year they lost 3 home game by a combined 6 points. No team has won a playoff game there yet

One of the many completely unhinged things from a press conference that was even more unhinged than they usually are.

Have the Wings even ever had a playoff game at LCA? Its been 9 long, long years since they even made the playoffs. An entire generation of kids never saw them in them. They probably wonder why Detroit is called Hockeytown.

Tobias is in my 2nd row.

Atlanta having 4 games left and can end up anywhere from play in game(s) to hosting a first round series is wild.

True. While he's young and fast he can live with a somewhat higher GB rate - but as hard as he hits the ball, there will be a lot of benefit from getting the ball into the air more because at the EV's he gets, HR's will follow.

Rumors about Rivers getting let go in Milwaukee. Make sense with a rebuild coming to go with a cheaper coach. At some point someone needs to write about Rivers being hired. Griffin was 30-13 when they fired him and Rivers finished the season 17-19.

With so many OTs that are graded well this year, I wonder what the odds of a small trade back scenario are. By pick 16 they will know how many OTs are left and may decide they can still get one, along with an extra later pick. Do they have discussions with other teams ahead of the draft to see how it might work? Obviously the further back you drop, the more risk that you miss out on your guys.

He has the speed to turn some grounders into singles.

Scales needs to calm down. His commentary has actually gotten better with time, but he does not sound really comfortable as a broadcaster. He doesn't know when to stop talking and he talks too fast.

I imagine Harris and Robinson will get some rest in the final 4 games. Duren might sit out one or two of them as well. No reason to rest Daniss, Holland, Huerter or anyone else. I doubt Ausar will rest since he's trying to qualify for offseason awards. I highly doubt we'll see Cade, but I wonder about Stew. Seems like it might be good to get him a game or two to get back in the groove. Of course, playing Stew and/or Duren in the Charlotte matchup seems like a bad idea after what happened last time. We don't need any suspensions.

Farthest ever now and if you were listening to the naming request from the crew, i'm not crying, you're crying.

Brooks with a relatively long open pocket glove, Aurelio with a shorter solid pocket.

I did some math and found that the band I have listened to the most in my life is Cheap Trick. Rick is my favorite guitarist, Bun E is my favorite drummer, Robin my favorite vocalist and Tom is tied with Gary from Rush as my favorite bassist. Once I figured all that out, I realized that they are my favorite band. I’ll see them at every opportunity. I know all the songs. I even play the air drums to “Ain’t That A Shame”. I do that part so well that a security guard at a recent show took notice and picked up a guitar pick from the ground and specifically handed it to me. 😆

I don’t think Benetti forces his humor. I think he’s just got the kind of mind that makes associations very quickly and is glib in a playful way. I hear him make a pun that no one picks up on and he lets it go. If he didn’t let it go, that would seem forced to me. I got the opinion that he and Dirks can be too much, and too tangential. It just doesn’t bug me much.

That second half was so fun. Philly had 60 in the first half. They scored just 33 in the second half.

The 1:15 PM injury report flipped Cade and Stew to doubtful. A beat writer said neither one is in Orlando so it means nothing for tonight. But up until now they have been listed as out. Maybe Wednesday at home they will give it a go. Harris and Robinson are now both listed as doubtful.

I could see someone like Lou Whitaker not even realizing he didn't have his regular glove. "It's just a glove, man".

All this time I just thought the rumors were because his daughter goes there. Big downgrade for him, kind of odd.

I think the answer lies within each player. At this level everything is so precise. Our own experiences aren't really relevant any more than it would be a weekend golfer comparing themselves to a touring pro. Some might prefer another glove and others might prefer the same. It's not one answer.

I had some folks I followed, but it seemed like the episodes where I would have to take the time to block a hundred trash feeds that got dumped on me got to where the site was a waste of time. The only thing I ever do on it now is read a link from here.
