Don't worry. With Tony Clark in charge, the negotiations will be over after the first month.

I thought this was cool.

😁. Might have been a different brand, but… yeah.

Only if we find a Stanley Clarke to play 2nd base.

AJ probably has Avila locked up somewhere so he doesnt screw this thing up.

Larkin is playing tonight. False positive.

Watched the game as usual (I mean, I haven't missed a Pistons game in 20 years now) and it was definitely a fun one. Cade - This kid is good. As others have already said, he came up huge in this game. Played solid defense, hit shots and made plays in the clutch. Even for all the talk of his "lack of athleticism" I rarely see him struggle to get to the rim or get an open look when he attacks...and we're not even 10 games into his NBA career yet. Also, it's great to see everyone - and I mean everyone - deferring to him already as the primary ball handler. Killian - That hand is a problem. He's fighting through it and I commend his grit, but he may need to take some time off for it to heal. Also, his defense is next level good. I could see him making first team all-defense at some point in his career. If his 3pt shooting this year isn't a fluke and he continues to improve in that area, there's no reason he can't be a really good NBA player as a 3 and D guard who can be a secondary ball handler. Imagine if Bruce Brown had figured out that 3pt shot and could handle the ball - only I think Hayes may be an even better defender already at age 20. Again, he hasn't even played half of an NBA season yet. Josh vs Hami - Josh and Hami are a bit redundant in Casey's view, so I suppose only one of them gets to play. Honestly, I'm ok with this. For every good play Josh makes, he makes another bad play. Beginning to feel like Josh is what he is and I see a lot more potential with Hami (if he can ever figure that 3pt shot out). Hami got some run and was neither bad nor good, although it was nice to see someone with elite athleticism out there. He had one block from behind that was just sick. Frank and Bey - Seem to be finding their shot again. I like Bey and I know a lot of people are really high on him, but I'm seeing him as a Jae Crowder in his prime type of player: Going to get you 14 points, 5 rebounds, good defense, high IQ every night. He's not your #1 or #2 player, and probably not even your #3 player on a championship team, but he could be that 4th guy in the starting lineup who you can't leave open on offense and will be a bulldog on defense night in and night out. Stewart - Solid comeback game after a pretty bad outing against SAC. I still wonder if he's the right fit as a starting center though. We really need an athletic lob threat, shot blocking, rebounding big. Someone that can make defenses pay in the pick and roll with Cade. Love Beef Stew's effort and ability to switch on defense, but I question his ceiling. Either way, I want him to remain a Piston and I think he could be great feasting on backups as the primary bench big man once we find our Mobley type of player. CoJo - Finally had a nice game, but I just don't care. Play Saben and develop him.

Cade was good, I couldn't care less that he shot poor from 3 because I know those shots will start falling. He's doing everything else really well. It's why a box score only tells a small part of the story because you look at the 3 point shooting and assume he sucked but, no. Also, he came up big in the clutch AGAIN. In a close game midway through the 4th, he drew back in and the first 4 possessions went like this... Cade hits a mid range J, Cade drives past a guy and scores at the rim through contact, Cade drives past a guy and dishes out to CoJo for a three, Cade drives past a guy and dishes out to Frank Jackson for a three. Not to mention that he shut Brogdon down, down the stretch. The kid is good, really good, and is really clutch. Once the threes start falling, he's going to be a load to handle.

I was listening to MLB radio on Sirius and they were talking about Dombrowski rebuilding the Phillies’ bullpen for next season. Good times, eh?

Al Franken got shamed out of office for less.

You don’t get to make the rules, Jughead. He can say whatever he wants about our country. This is America and we allow people the freedom to dissent. It is what we were founded on. Trying to silence him is about as unpatriotic as one can get. Stop hating on our country and embarrassing your flag with your weak ass xenophobic bullshit.

If we sign Correa, will we Return to Forever?

A candidate for the top 10 of recent years. The Fox New candidate for the Dems Tulsi Gabbard who likely was also Putin's candidate. She had some bad skin if you saw her on a good HD tv but the overall package was athletic and appealing.

If you want to advance, you gotta take a chance!

Yeah that one caught my eye as well, I couldn't find any details but some people speculate that the massage table broke causing him to fall on the floor, either that or he was getting massaged by the Incredible Hulk.

this is a family forum right? Maybe not.

He’s not even in Aaron Burr territory. Maybe a member of The Squad should challenge him to a duel

He was after the dude who was speaker elect or some shit that had to resign over a sex scandal. That dude was after your dude who also resigned over a sex scandal.

ladies and gentlemen, i was not wrong. you, on the other hand, are wrong 50 times per game thread! shush.

And for all you guys rooting for the rams because you have a crush on stafford, grow up. This is a business. I hope the rams lose every game forever.

February 30, 2011. Look it up.

At $50M I'd let it go to voicemail

It made sense that Verlander would sign with the Astros. They’re the reigning AL champs and their window is still wide open, while Verlander’s own window is pretty short. (I’m not taking on faith he’ll definitely pitch into his mid-40s or later). So, yeah, it makes sense that he’d like a ring next year rather than helping a still-down team build toward one in, say, 2024 or 2025. Plus, Verlander is the Devil They Know. Isn’t that right, @casimir? 😉

For Boyd @buddha

Bummer I was hoping for a reunion even though I knew it was unlikely, especially after signing Rodriguez. Oh well atleast he didn't go to the Yankees and who knows maybe if he performs well this year he'll opt out and we can get that reunion next year when we hopefully are really ready to compete for a championship.

I would also feel very loyal when offered 50 million.

And the official proceeding was the certification of our elections. Disrupting that is committing violence to our country and constitutional form of government. A mob, even if not all members are actively breaking things, still conveys the menace and threat. Many were violent, and he went along with them.

Yeah it matters, maybe why he didn't get 10 years. He DID commit a violent crime. Anyone that broke into the Capitol that day committed a violent crime. Tired of excuses for these criminals. He travelled there of his own free will and took part, mentally challenged or not, that's on him. I have little to no sympathy for those who attempted to overthrow our democracy and who would have killed our representatives if they had gotten to them. Every single one of those sons a bitches are mentally ill. Let Trump take 'em in. He could turn Mar-A-Lago in to a f**king hospital.

Thanks, I thought so. I think she has done a good job considering.

I’d take Hutchinson number one. He is the best player in the country.

her worst decisions were the 90% where she voted in line with Trump LOL

I missed the part where Whitmer blows off vaccinations, denied the right to local jurisdictions to enforce mask mandates, and also made a point to say vaccination requirements were wrong... other than that you are correct I guess.

To say the insurrection was not violent is some serious revisionist history. You Trumpers never cease to amaze me.

He doesn't even capitalize "b"

Not at all true. buddha would never capitalize "way".

If they sign Correa, he'll say they WAY overpaid.

Buddha will never be happy.

Sunrise in Vegas today.

The game is on ESPN+ again....no chance for me to watch it.

The thing is, he'll get his committee assignments back as soon as the Republicans regain the House.
