You can’t possibly think they would bump the season premiere of Dancing with the Stars, do you? Probably draws a larger audience in the Detroit area right now… 🤪

Interesting... I just read that this will be the first time in over 70 years that the Lions have worn white pants, and the first time wearing a white facemask. https://news.sportslogos.net/2021/09/20/detroit-lions-to-wear-white-pants-facemasks-against-green-bay-packers-on-monday-night-football/football/

Can we critique it? Content is a little thin and your avatar is just an "A." Not bad for your first attempt, but we expect better from you Bruce.

He seemed like a decent guy when he was with the Tigers, just didn't have the bat to stick. Saw him pitch a bit in the Olympics and he didn't look too bad. With all the pitchers teams role out to the mound these days, it's nice to see him get a chance.

Predictions for the game tonight? I'll say... Packers 37 - Lions 17.

Wow, now I'm an Apprentice! My dreams are slowly coming true...

That's what all Newbies say...

I'm not sure I like being ranked a rookie again... Apparently I need 14 more points to reach the next level, whatever that may be. Help a guy out and LIKE this post (and my others please)!

Lions wearing all white tonight for MNF.

I believe Tropicana Field was built specifically to try and lure a baseball team to the area, with the White Sox and Giants the targets at that time. The stadium was used for other sports (it was the early home for the Lightening), but that was primarily because it wasn’t being used much until the Rays came along. I don’t believe multipurpose was the idea behind it, but may be wrong.

These forums were developed to go with my other websites… MotownTigers, MotownLions, MotownRedWings, and MotownPistons. It also provides an alternate place to post in the event that our original forum (MotownSports) has issues. I no longer own or operate that site/forum. That site was sold in June 2020.

I’ve been to both… I can give the Homerdome a pass since it was a multi-purpose stadium. Tropicana is baseball only and still fails.

Nope, a very generous business, but one that obviously doesn’t pay as much attention to it as they should.

Ugh, extra innings again… as long as we win, I can deal with it.

Yep, got out of the bases load jam. 🙂

Worst stadium in baseball...

More people popping up as members today. Nice to see you all here!

I'm good with that. I have no issues if this is done away from the MotownSports.com site. Feel free to tell people about this forum otherwise! :)

I don't have any issue with that, I just wouldn't push for it on MotownSports.com out of respect. However, that isn't much of an issue today since that forum isn't working. If people want to tell others behind the scene, I good with that.

Yeah, not thinking this game will turn out good for the Lions... With the Packers getting blown out last weekend, they will have a lot to prove this week at home (at the Lions expense). As a lifetime Lions fan and Packers shareholder, I make out fine either way! 37-10 I'm predicting...

I like to think so!

That's still a reachable goal at this point. Tigers schedule is still tough, but they've been finding ways to win despite the tough teams. If they make it through this weekend with no worse than a split, we have a good shot at second.

Caldwell inherited the best defense of the 4 HCs, so it's not too surprising he did okay in his first game. What blows my mind is that Patricia was "supposed" to be a defensive wiz and he not only coached a poor defense, but he left it in shambles for the next guy.
