  1. Is Canha just a bridge until Bigbie is called up in 2025? Edit: Bridge might be selling Canha short. Maybe the better way to look at it is that the timing might be fortunate with Canha's salary expiring and hopefully Bigbie's recent development is real.
  2. Ivey has to be in there somewhere, doesn't he?
  3. Bigs and 3 or Ds. That defines the current Pistons.
  4. See, you're able to express your difference of opinion without being snide about it. Several others disagreed as well, but the tone was civil, and that's why they don't get attacked. That's the way it should be.
  5. Fairy tales. Sky wizard. You're intentionally being an asshole. I'll type slower for you this time. Don’t live life like an asshole.
  6. He hates Austin Meadows, too.
  7. I'm used to that. I actually like the shirt, I think its clever. I've thought about getting a BO KNOWS shirt for myself lately. I told him he needed to look up Bo Jackson and I was going to explain it a bit more, but he had things to tend to. Hopefully he talked this stranger danger event to his parents and they explained to him that (1) Bo Jackson > Bo Bichette and (2) some boomers actually do know stuff.
  8. So, I'm at a junior high school event for my kid last night. A kid walks by with this shirt: I only caught the BO at first. But then I saw it wasn't Bo Jackson. So, he walked by me and I told him he had the wrong Bo on the shirt, and he just kind of gave me a quizzical look and continued on his way. A few minutes later he walked by again and asked me what I meant. And I told him Bo Jackson is the best Bo. And again, he gave me a confused look and said Bo Bichette was the best Bo, who is Bo Jackson? Who is Bo Jackson??!! I wanted to grab him by the scruff and march him off to the nearest screen to watch some YouTube. These kids today, they don't know diddley.
  9. According to my spotify wrapped, I listened to some Buffett during September. Sounds about right.
  10. I also do not have plans to run for president in 2024.
  11. 2-17. 30-52 seemed to have been a popular prediction. They'll need to go 28-35 to accomplish that. Is it reasonable to expect them to win 40% of their games from here on out?
  12. I’m not. But I don’t begrudge those that are. Look, it’s pretty simple. Regardless of religion, don’t live life like an asshole.
  13. I think there’s some psychological magic with 100 wins or losses for an MLB record. It’s just a theory. Kind of like 20 pitching wins or home runs (used to be anyway). I’d like to say 100 wins or losses doesn’t occur very often, but there probably needs to be s9me research behind that. For the record, there were three 100 win teams and four 100 loss teams this season. I’m sure most of us that were around for 1984 look at 104 wins as something special. And, unfortunately we know the sting of 119 losses, too.
  14. What’s wrong with atheism? Is the current flavor of Christianity that aligns with Trump (and to be clear, I’m not saying that’s all Christians) a better people because they say they believe in Christianity?
  15. Vestski would've been more fun.
  16. Teamwork makes the dream work.
  17. The black jerseys are a part of the demise. Someone(s) is more of a major player, but let's also not overlook the ugly kits.
  18. That and the empty Moosehead Light cans strewn about.
  19. Just by pure coin flip, not factoring in team skill sets or home/away or injuries or anything like that, a 15 game losing streak is a 1 in 32,768 proposition. Extending the party to 16 tonight would be a a in 65,536 event. The capacity for a football game at Ford Field is 65,000. So there is one chair in there (probably a duct taped folding chair in a standing room only area) that this streak sits in amongst the rest of the crowd.
  20. They can pray no one parks in their parking lot.
  21. Where do you think teams at the top and bottom line up in a competitive league? The one thing about baseball vs other sports is the game to game nature of it. You really don't know who will win any given game. The winning percentages of teams is a much more narrow range than those of the other major sports.
  22. Are there any players on the roster that play a considerable enough time that have also been a contributing factor to winning in the NBA? I don't think its a necessity, but it sure would be helpful. Burks is probably the only player on the roster with playoff time that has been healthy this season. This team is probably too young right now. I suppose a case can be made that if Bogdanovich and Morris were healthy and playing, they'd have a few more wins by now. Where is the on court leadership coming from?
  23. We were all so young and innocent back then.
