I do think there is something to be said for what signing an in-house franchise stud says to the top tier free agents on the market: if the Tigers are willing to commit real money like that, they must be serious about contending. Couple that with the #1 farm system in the game starting to matriculate at the same time, and I think that would make us a lot more attractive a consideration in the free agent marketplace.

MAGA is getting ready to board Trump's pedo party bus

Harris is making bold moves already! It's going to be a wild off-season.

I've certainly never heard Boras be that incoherent.

“The jerk store called….”

I don't mind the jerseys even though I despise the teal, but I really don't like the center court transparency and I especially hate the logo they used for the broadcast because it just looks like the Orlando Magic logo. And why is the logo on the court transparent but the version of it on the broadcast is blue? And why is only the horse's eye red? It doesn't match the logo on the broadcast or on the shorts. Why are we using so many discordant colors: black, red, teal, and yellow is an awful combination of colors that you would only find together in a child's playroom. Ok, old man rant over.

... Be Determined at Some Future Date.

Thank you for including me. I will sleep better tonight knowing this.

I'm out of reactions today, but Like. Did you know "Barely Legal" is still being published as a magazine by the Larry Flynt people? Unreal!

lol, if you say so! Although you gotta admit it's hard to not take something seriously when someone prefaces it with "but seriously". I wasn't trying the condescend to you or insult you. I'm sorry you took it that way, honestly. I'm not taking it back, of course, because I meant what I said. I'm just saying the intention was simply to put across my idea, not to insult you. If my intention was to insult you, you would definitely know it. 😁 I meant it because if you encountered actual people of color with modest means on a regular basis, you would not have used the sweeping generalization that entire ethnic groups bypass what the rest of us (?) consider standard government practices such as obtaining an ID. I'm just here to tell you from firsthand experience that most of the people I see on a regular basis take a lot of pride in the way they are navigating their lives despite the lack of resources and the apparent apathy of various systems seemingly designed to thwart them (as well as actual antipathy from the federal government). All they really want is for the system to recognize and respect them as citizens so they can participate in it fully. Yes, a few of my clients have checked out as you implied. They are a tiny minority of the people, barely double digit percent if that, and 100% of my clients are all in dire need of pantry assistance, especially since SNAP is being simultaneously dangled in front of them and then snatched away. No matter how hard things get, people still have faith. Ever hear the James Brown song, "I Don't Want Nobody to Give Me Nothing (Open Up the Door, I'll Get It Myself)"? That's it. That's the whole ball of wax right there. And yet: so many of them still believe things can change, for the better, with different leaders. I can only admire the tenacity of that belief considering the centuries of evidence piled up against it.

I swear to God, LaceyLou, the first person, man or woman who speaks to me, face-to-face, and refers to a 13/14/15 year-old as an “underage woman”, I will have a very difficult time not being physical with them. When did decent human beings revert back to this mindset? It’s beyond appalling but additionally , so very depressing.

His OPS was .666 last season. He’s done. McKinstry and Baez are better options at this point. If we think this team needs a mentor, let’s find one that can still hit.

You're saying Patrick Dumot better watch his horses really well?

She's the one who gave the Duggar family a platform to defend the oldest son's behavior when it came out that he had molested his own sisters. In other words, not a surprise at all. And a lot of the women in MAGA already feel this way, and I'm sure most of the rest will fall in line soon. Sometimes women are their own worst enemies.

It still deserves Thanks and Love...

I mean, I did say please not to take it the wrong way. 😉 It was just my honest reaction to what I viewed as an extremely condescending response from you. No need to read the rest of my response anyway, it was spot on logically and there would be no legitimate argument against it anyway.

didn't watch before I posted I think I already posted these

This is disgusting

His minor league stats are better but I'm sure they will try to pass both him and Little through waivers at some point. More roster churn.

Happy that Skubal won the Cy Young Not happy that a 'reporter' referred to him as her friend. Good work Emily

I hear you, and I'm at the point where I don't bother with any 'news' that claims Drumpf or any politician is done. I'm less sure that the abuse of girls will bring anybody down-I've been burned a few too many times by comments joking that 'at least they're going for the right gender, ha ha ha' and a general dismissal of girls being sexually abused. In fact I've heard girls as young as 6 as 'asking for it.' The only time some people care is if a girl gets pregnant as a result of the abuse, and then of course she must be compelled to carry that pregnancy to term. Once she delivers, she's ignored again at best or demonized at worst. I only hope I'm proven wrong this time.

Massie's point about how will you answer the question in 2028 is a good one. I'm still suspicious that it will mean much though. So far nobody has been able to slice through Trump's hold on the GOP. Vance is a snake and I don't doubt he'd seize an opening if he saw one. I'm not being contrarian... just been burned too many times. Maybe a Dem house can impeach him again and Vance makes his move with GOP Senators to convict.

Its awesome that they're not concerned about improving the economy, just interested in improving trumps poll numbers on the economy

I see your point, but the actions of the administration to try to silence to the highest degree possible disclosure of any information is naturally gonna add a level of credibility to a wider audience. As we learned in Watergate, it's not the crime, it's the cover-up

Yep. They've played a pretty weak schedule. But the formula is beat up on the bad teams and go .500 against the good ones. I don't care what the schedule says, 10-2 is pretty good.

Telling on yourself again

Which is why we aren't offering Skubal and the dumb media should say that instead of saying we're cheap and don't want him. Well we might be cheap...yet to be determined.

I normally hate the alternates, too. But the jerseys and court are simple and sharp.

The Pistons success is a credit to excellent coaching. No doubt about it.

Jenkins can play in this league. He's very athletic.

Good to catch Chicago without Giddey. 80% of the Pistons starters not playing. 40% of the Bulls starters not playing, Tickets still 100% of the price.

Can we rename this thread: "Show me on the doll where the President of the United States touched you?"

Oh, I'm not defending him... I'm just saying these people who were still buddy buddy with him later on are scum.

Coming up on year four of the Harris regime and we are still assuming just nine regular position players?

Yeah, it is pretty ridiculous, especially considering that everyone knows Scott Harris is going to do exactly what I believe is right for the team. 😉😁

Just saw the play again. Didn’t actually overthrow it like I remembered. AJ Brown just didn’t put any effort into catching that pass at all. Wild. Probably should have punted. That would have been the safest bet. It also took the game out of his team’s hands, so I at least understand the thought. In this league, expecting your best WR to win a 1-on-1 or draw a DPI is not a terrible call, it’s just much more of a risk. Throwing the ball to your tantruming child of a WR was probably the bigger mistake. At least they found out they can’t count on him when the team absolutely needs him now, in a game they won in the middle of the season, rather than in an elimination game. Probably should have just punted.

Watch Bball Paul go for 20 and 15 rebounds

What I see more often is people explaining why Harris or Ilitch won't like any player and how no player will want to play for the Tigers so it doen't matter anyway.

I'll predict he is not even considering Detroit as a destination.

Unless they already play in Florida or AZ or even CA, I suspect most players 'commute' so the city itself is kind of irrelevant. Especially those that command the types of salaries a FA would get. I don't think a city, during the season, matters to them. They are always working anyway.

ID's are not as hard to get as the left likes to pretend. Many cities and states already have programs to help get ID's and those certainly could be expanded. Additionally, getting ID's into the hands of every eligible voter, would disproportionately improve the lives of people of color by improving their ability to get a job, get a bank account, give more access to social programs, and even improve the justice system as it would put more people of color on juries. Getting everyone an ID should be a goal if you truly want to help people.

He wasn’t talking about you. He said self respecting vets.

The Tigers need to offer Bregman a contract so Boras can shop it around to other clubs and get him a max contract. A totally unethical agent...

FIRST CHOICE: I want Bregman AND Tucker. Fat chance that...

Let’s not forget that Skubal pitched 6 innings in Game 5. Then sat home and watched Yamamoto pitch in two consecutive WS games so his team could win the series. When Tarik can go 7 innings in an elimination game, I’ll take his desires a bit more seriously.

Bichette is probably the better fit—no clear internal answer at SS for the next 3 seasons. Baez can fill in at 2B, SS and CF, basically a RH utility complement to McKinstry.

it's almost like you wrote a book about this once...
