  1. Horrible scheduling overall. Tigers are lucky they got out of it at 2-4.
  2. I think that trade for Milton, may be an absolutely brilliant move for the Cowboys. While Dak doesn't suck, I just don't feel like he's a winner. I think Milton has a chance to be special - in the right place.
  3. 162 game schedule in the 32-team, 8 4-team division MLB. All based on 3-game series 18 games vs. your division (18x3) = 54 6 games vs. all the other teams in your leauge (12x6) = 72 12 games vs. your "buddy" team in the other league - the Pirates for us (12x1) = 12 6 games vs. 4 other interleague teams = 24 54 + 72 + 12 + 24 = 162 It's perfect ! Let's go ahead and add Nashville and Salt Lake City and move the Rays to Montreal. Done.
  4. Picture makes him look like a serial killer. That smile is kind of creepy
  5. I can't listen to 97.1 anymore because of all the sports gambling ads. Enough already. I know I am not as into sports as I once was because I am older and have other things going on, but the sports betting aspect is ruining everything. Just like the money is just destroying any good parts of college sports now. I don't want USC and UCLA in the Big Ten. And yes, while the schools make a fortune, the guys risking their bodies deserve to get paid, but it went from nothing to completely out of hand with no adjustment to it and it just doesn't feel legit anymore.
  6. Absolutely incredible fact here. Gretzky 894 goals in 1487 games Ovechkin 892 goals in 1485 games. I really want him to score two goals in the next to games because the chances of that are astronomical. I think it also shows Ovie is the better goal scorer because the number of goals in the NHL in the 80s was quite a bit higher, right?
  7. Maybe Poker's not your game. I know, let's have a spelling contest.
  8. It was rough starting 0-3 to the Dodgers (and the unequal strike zones), but if Minnesota holds their lead today, every team in the AL Central will be 2-4. Fresh Start on Friday. Make it count.
  9. Always Look On The Bright Side of Life: If Mize and Tork can be anything close to their 1/1 status, that would be outstanding Curb Your Ethusiasm: The Mariners are maybe the worst-hitting team in baseball
  10. Our two 1-1's might finally being showing it.
  11. He just need to unplug this offseason. He needed to get away from it all.
  12. Exactly. HALF the teams make the playoffs and it's been a decade? That's pathetic.
  13. There goes the playoffs. That was it. Tired of this. Yzerman is failing.
  14. Tork is hitting .438. Did you know if he keeps at this pace, he's going to finish the season hitting .438?
  15. Hey, I think a lot of us now realize that Avila had an eye for talent, but no idea about the right way or staff to develop the talent. If Al had the current method/coaches, some of the guys that missed, might not have missed. I worried that it was both not recognizing AND not developing because the track record for position players going all the way back to Randy Smith was dismal. That includes Dombrowski who painted over his failures with fat contracts and a desperate-to-win owner. We all bemoan Chris Illitch as cheap, but hold on - he is spending, but not really on the payroll side of it. They are taking a bit of the Rays approach, but they can't go full Rays because Tiger fans would not tolerate it the way the limited Tampa fanbase does. If they get close, I mean 1 or 2 players away, he may spend the money to go for it. We're just nowhere near that right now. I know we have Max, Kevin, Thayron and Bryce on the way, but we need to be honest with ourselves - if we go 2 for 4 there, we're doing better than most teams would. Best case is probably 1 player is a star and 2 of those other 3 are serviceable major leaguers. Wish it wasn't like that, but it pretty much is.
