  1. Which is all the more sad because of the breakdown in the successful team that the Brad hire created.
  2. Gawd, imagine what this team could have done with maybe two more years of Jim Leyland managing, Mike Illitch living and Dave Dombrowski presidenting. Like most Detroit things the new, unproven manager Brad Ausmus came in with unassailable propaganda behind him and many including me needed to hope he would be good. He was not good. The bad became awful as the Dombrowski era gave way to the Avila years. Now, we are here. PLEASE BE GOOD Scott Harris. Please don't be seeing this as a stepping stone for your real career objectives. Please figure out how to make the sports business work in Detroit's market. We aren't small. Lots of money out there in those houses around all those lakes in the suburbs and up north. Figure it out. We aren't New England but we aren't nothing.
  3. Trump would have hated Jesus if he met him.
  4. Profiling saves a lot of time in the investigative business.
  5. You'd think his life is all about recovering his ego from the psychological wounds he got on the playground with that name.
  6. Hopefully Nauta gets to this point.
  7. I'm not going agree with the arguement that the god botherers who annoy us with their certainty are the same as the cult-devotees.
  8. I noticed something with the British rock group Wolf Alice. Lead singer is a very attractive female and she's quite good at the singing but the production of the tracks is such that you can barely understand the lyrics due to them having too much other stuff layered on top. They have some live stuff on youtube in which her vocals are much more front and center and its better than the album tracks.
  9. They always overcharged for ammo. Pro: they fixed anything newish I brought them but Con: the millennial gunsmith was flummoxed by the 1944 Enfield No4 Mk1 I brought in. I was always amazed at the amount of people just wandering around the store wanting to make it a barber shop experience. If they couldn't sustain business because of insurance they really shouldn't have been in the business.
  10. concur. It still looks like stink without Riley Green.
  11. So, assuming the war does not end...a NATO member would be at war with Russia. I think this would be a strong incentive for Ukraine to reclaim as much territory as possible as soon as possible and get Vladdie to the peace table. Vladdie knows this though. He needs the war to continue or he faces a real problem.
  12. This is really good too
  13. this is a good quote
  14. The Oakland A's reverse boycott is fun. I think we are nearing that level of "Millen Man March" with the Tigers after this stupid long rebuild. I am willing to give Harris the benefit of the doubt this season because of the structural brokenness of having to play a non-competivive Miggy but dayum. This June swoon sucks.
  15. Let's hope he puts up the numbers to get that. What I wouldn't give for a legit power threat outfielder who could play everyday without a platoon. Remember the good old days when the Tigers would just randomly have a Torii Hunter ($13M AAV) or a Justin Upton ($22m AAV) or even a Johhny Damon ($8m for one season). Alas, ownership prefers the way of pain.
  16. This is what we are dealing with. Nancy French is about as conservative a human being in the World. Her husband David French and she are both very evangelical Christians. Thread
  17. I think they need to pay for better players.
  18. apparently he just ended Jessie Chavez' career on that.
  19. This country needs to stop overvalidating Kornacki
  20. YOU CANNOT HAVE ANYTHING NICE! The 2023 Detroit Tigers Yearbook
  21. welp, they just let the opposing pitcher off the hook with a quick inning.
