My view of McStinky

trump has someone new writing for him. You can tell because: a) this is too long to be a normal Trump post b) the vocabulary is several steps above the normal Trump post c) it's too logical to be a normal Trump post. d) and the slam dunk: there is actual concern expressed for people other than Trump.

Sack Like an Egyptian

he needs to keep confidence that he can reach the seats to right because he is seeing a lot of outside pitching and just going to right gives him better odds than trying to turn around an outside pitch.

Tigers record: 16W 10L Dodgers’ record: 16W 10L The win keeps the Tigers 1/2 ahead of the Guardians for the best record in the AL. 2 games behind the Mets for the best record in MLB.

Maybe they should trade Pickett to the Steelers. 🙂

YMMV, but I am 100% in on Jason Benetti taking days off to call national games all he wants as long as Dan Dickerson covers him on TV.

I think he is successful because he drafts players he thinks are good. I also think having more picks in a round but not being able to draft the guys you like because those picks are later in the round than you can get that player is not very useful. If you only have a couple of guys you actually like but are 30 picks away then that pick is likely to be wasted. And in next year's 3rd round who knows if they will have someone they like as much as TeSlaa. What they do know is that they liked TeSlaa and he was available, so they went and got him. I respect the strategy as long as the guys making the picks are actually good at identifying talent.

Holmes looks throughout the draft and if he has conviction on a olayers he goes and gets him. That’s what makes him successful, not playing games with value. He’s not going to hit on every player, that’s not reasonable.

Are we really questioning Holmes with the draft? A 15-2 team just scored two players who will likely start for this team. I’m good

From the guy who bankrupted an entire football league

Miami just took your Quinn Ewers, right after we picked a Safety at #230...

And don't forget Egyptian Sun God: Amon-Ra St. Brown.

Totally agree. Dan and Andy are the best combo imho

So that chopper to Torkelson where he threw the runner out at home rather than take the out at second allowing the runner to score….. that kind of loomed large, eh?

Can you believe that Will Vest went to Seattle as a Rule 5 pick and they sent him back?? It helps to have a new front office and coaching staff that knows what he is and what to do with him.

Your trust is well earned and deserved. Tigers win !!!

3 more outs. Lets get a couple runs in Bottom 8 to avoid stress.

More runs please

Torkelson with a web gem. That might be the play that clinches his gold glove this season.

Nope, the standard home uniforms. Ice cream white, as Ernie Harwell would say.

Pace yourself, it’s a long day.

and that is why the cleveland browns are a bad organization. shedeur sanders learning at the feet of deshaun watson.

Lions have five picks remaining at 6.182, 6.196, 7.228, 7.230, and 7.244. I don't see five roster holes remaining for 6th round talents. They may try to package three of those to move back into the 5th round. Bradyn Swinson, Jack Sawyer, Fadil Diggs, and Tyrion Ingram-Dawkins have the upside to compete with Davenport et al. for the starting edge role... I like Cam Skattebo as a potential Craig Reynolds replacement... Marcus Mbow is still there if they want to double dip on the offensive line... And I'm sure there are some guys they love who I have never heard of.

The end of Adolescence episode 2................It's a continuous one shot (which is unreal how they pulled that off), but how it transitioned to a drone shot for that last scene. No edits. That was incredible. They had to attach the camera to a drone seamlessly. I want to see a behind the scenes of that. It was breathtaking. And the thing is, after watching the first episode, I didn't realize that it was all done in one continuous shot until I read about it and it made me marvel at how well it was done and how much planning must have gone into it. Bravo TV is better than movies now. It really is and to me the gap is widening - by a lot, every year. Used to be that an actor going from TV to movies was slumming, but not anymore. I'd put Noah Wyle's performance in The Pitt up against any Oscar-nominated actor in the last 5 years and he might not even win the Emmy. I think movies got too obsessed with special effects and green screens that telling a great story got lost. A good old-fashioned drama like Conclave or The Holdovers is getting to be more rare. Stories on television - well you really get to tell a story and really get to dive into character arcs and blur the lines between good person/bad person. This was all started by the Sopranos, which was a movie-scale production 12 times a season.

give it up for Francis for the digs at Trump from beyond the grave. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/trump-gets-called-out-in-front-of-millions-at-pope-s-funeral/ar-AA1DF1y2

So there's this everyday guy in Australia who's first name and twitter handle is just Shadeur, anyway a couple high profile twitter accounts accidentally tagged it while typing out Sanders name so now there are 100s of thousands of replies and reposts mistakingly directed at that guy. Poor guy is gonna log into his account and wonder what the hell is going on.

even if this is fake, its hilarious.

milroe goes before sanders! bwaahaahaahaa.

btw, guard, wr, and dt. all areas of need.

I'm not a fan of this trade, but I don't think losing mid round picks will hurt them. They have a loaded roster.

But with the roster constructed the way it is now, which is pretty deep, as Motown Bombers said 3rd/4th/5th round guys aren't really a need for them anymore, like they used to be. Look, you can't take last year as an example of a lack of depth because they had a freakishly abnormal amount of injures, and they still held it together until the playoffs. Guys they'd take in those middle rounds - they already have those guys. They have their own way of measuring talent and it's served them very well. Let it marinate. I don't think they're going to miss the guys that would have been available in those rounds. There are specific reasons they moved up for these guys. Just let it marinet. Trust in Brad.

Even if it is/was an even trade based off the value charts I still don't agree with risking that kinda capital for essentially a high ceiling project. To me that type of return is for somebody like a Brian Branch type of player who inexplicably dropped in the draft.

other teams are moving up for much less than that. brad holmes has a rep now. you can fleece him on a trade.

wait....we traded up AGAIN?

Habs starting goalie Montembeault knocked out of Game 3 with injury. Backup Dobes in net. But in case he gets hurt too, a Montreal cop has suited up as emergency backup.

Glasgow may not start. He would still be a good backup as he can backup center and both guard positions.

ESPN.com Pre-Draft Analysis Ratledge started 37 games at right guard, and his workout at the combine was impressive. He fires off the ball, knocks defenders back and stays connected in the run game. Ratledge keeps his base intact and covers linebackers when he releases to the second level. He's quick with the range to excel in zone-heavy schemes with improved footwork. Defenders can get into his frame initially, but he tends to work his big hands back inside and latches on as a pass blocker. He moves his feet, and he is tough to beat once he's in position. Ratledge packs a powerful punch and keeps his head on a swivel to work against stunts from the defensive line. -- Steve Muench Post-Draft Analysis If you asked before the draft what an ideal pick would be for Detroit in Round 2, this would have been the answer. Ratledge is an easy-moving right guard with big-time power on the point of impact in the run game. He also has the recovery agility to hold up in pass protection. The Lions need a right guard after Kevin Zeitler departed to the Titans in free agency, and they landed a battle-tested SEC starter. Ratledge will certainly see the field as a rookie with his impressive toughness and experience. -- Miller

The Cowboys pick is in and NFL Network cuts to commercial?! That was an old Lions move they loved to pull. We would always be the first footnote pick of the draft. "While you were away the Lions selected..."

I think it's just taking advantage of the 27th man while they can.

He repeated it over and over. At every campaign rally. He even said he would end it as a president-elect. He was not saying it in jest. It was one of him many, many unkept promises.
