But most importantly.......

I figure we might as well get this started.  

Some Victor highlights from today.

 

I don't know, I think a live reaction thread should be it's own thread. 

Alright Brad Holmes, go spend some money and put this team over the top! A good offseason and I truly believe we can be kings of the NFC North.

Since the season starts today I figure we can get this one going as a continuation of the off season thread.

Use this for general talk about the Tigers outside of the game threads.
