Man, the kid just scored a touchdown a few days ago and now this. You just never know what's going on with someone. How sad. First thought that comes to me is wondering how many concussions he had in college. He was from Grand Rapids.

Remember Nook Logan? or Alex Sanchez?
Motor City Sonics replied to Zakk_Wylde's topic in Detroit Tigers
Alex Sanchez was super fast, but one of the dumbest baserunners ever. When I think of legends of the past - how about Steven Moya? Man, he was destined for greatness. You know, Moya is only 34. He hit .305 with 25 HR in the Chinese League last year. Maybe? What a comeback that would be. -
and Trump says "and if'n I don't?". Seriously, what happens if he doesn't? Nothing. Go ahead and release the Epstein files. Nothing will happen to him. He could be caught with 9 year old boys and nothing will happen to him. Might be better to wait and see if he survives until February 2029 (when they'll finally get him out of the White House by force), you know, when he can no longer pardom himself and THEN drop that bomb. President Newsom or President Beshear are not going to make any deals with him.

You stole that from Shawshank, didn't ya?

Well America, you reap what you sow. You either didn't vote or you voted for the single most unqualified human to ever run for President and you are getting EXACTLY the predicted result. Don't cry to me about it. I voted for the stable individual.

11/7/25 7:30PM Pistons @ Nets NBA Cup Group Stage
Motor City Sonics replied to Tigeraholic1's topic in Detroit Pistons
Are they actual contenders? Like for the NBA Finals? This team is pretty good. Hey, maybe they can add to their roster at the trade deadl...........oh wait, I forgot, Detroit teams don't do anything at trade deadlines. -
Elwood Blues knew how to handle Nazis.

How is Trump going to punish Virginia and New Jersey? Because you know he'll try, at the very least.
-
That's because the polls were right and thousands of votes were burned and shredded.
-
Is he running in 2028? He's a guy that people can connect with.
-
Which is exactly what they want. That way they can justify their actions from the crazy and unruly mob. And understand, 40% of this country will be just fine with it. At least they will be with THIS administration.

That's if they follow the Constitution. They're gonna suspend it first.

Oh, I thought you were gonna post "I go to parties, sometimes til four. It's hard to leave when you can't find the door"

Sadly, I think it's more likely that they'll find a way to impose Martial Law just before the 2026 elections than they are to allow Jeffries to become Speaker. I would say that completely shutting down Social Security and Medicare in September would piss people off enough for protests and that will be used as the reason. That or having a bunch of Democratic politicians arrested If that doesn't happen, the other trick is hundreds of thousands of people show up to vote on election day and are denied because some obscure law was passed. It's all about the messaging too. People need to be made aware of any changes, because some will be enacted. Gonna love the sight of the National Guard at our polling places too. That seems very pro-democracy. Michigan needs to stay strong here. I think Mike Duggan is going to **** it up just enough for Trump bootlicker John James to win. And no matter the 2028 results - even if it's a Republican that wins, Trump will not leave office in January 2029. He'll have the military seize Washington D.C. before that ever happens. Will our military follow him or the President-Elect in 2029. Doesn't matter what the Constitution says. He'll do this even if someone like Vance or Rubio wins. And I don't think Trump won last year. The way all the big tech guys immediately knelt down for that bastard makes me believe they cooked it in advance. Go ahead and release the Epstein files. Nothing will happen to Trump. It would be better for it to happen now, so he can pardon himself. He could get caught on video with a 9 year old and his cult will still support him. Oh, Clinton will get arrested (and he should), but not Trump. Oh and speaking of Epstein, let's talk Alan Dershowitz..... Is Dershowitz going to keep his promise to blow his brains out on live TV over the NYC mayoral race? Is it going to be Pay Per View?

Anyone remember this game? I was 12 years old. I was at the JC Penney at Lakeside Mall watching the end of the game on all the TVs and my mom said "let's go". I did this just as Baltimore was getting set to punt it. Got back to the car, turned on the radio and the Lions broadcasters were celebrating. I gave my mom such a hard time about making me leave it. To this day I bring it up (now that she watches Lions games).

I'm fine with the Flaherty thing because I don't think he's washed up. He's still very capable of getting into a really good groove and being a plus starter - but, as long as they say "Welp, Jack's back, no need to add to the rotation". And I will be apoplectic If they re-sign Cobb. Re-signing Cobb would be a Randy "I had him with my other team" Smith move. That's a lazy GM move, there.

Like that Kim Mitchell song GO FOR SHOTA !!!!!

Trade deadlines in Detroit are like getting socks for Christmas.

#1 target -- EDWIN ****ING DIAZ. He had his injury already. Others. - Go after Bregman again, but I still think he never wanted to sign here. But at least kick the tires. Bo Bichette - consistent hitter. If it wasn't for the one bad year he'd be a career .300 hitter. Forget Kyle Schwarber. Power hitters don't want to play at Comerica. I think it's the main reason Bregman didn't want to come here. Sign one of the following Fromber Valdez, Ranger Suarez or Lucas Giolito. It seems like this year there are maybe 12 really good FA and then it drops and drops quickly. If they can get Geyber back at a reasonable price, then do it, but look elsewhere first. If they sign a third baseman they have a lot of different 2b options. But I feel like Scott Harris is the baseball equivalent of Steve Yzerman -- no bold moves. And that makes me think ownership is controlling everything. Do what you can do, just don't spend.

Will Tigers Pony up for Skubal
Motor City Sonics replied to AlaskanTigersFan's topic in Detroit Tigers
I tend to agree with this now. If you can throw money around like the Dodgers and Mets you sign him, but we know that's not happening. But if you trade him, you'd better get something good for him. The biggest thing is that - he plays 31 out of 162 games, and I am not sure he's gonna hold up more than 2 or 3 more years at this level. And the big question - what happens next December? Get used to the idea of not having a season in 2027. The baseball players union is more stubborn than the hockey players union and they lost a whole season. Plus, with the ESPN contract expiring and a lot of uncertainty there, the billionaires won't be losing as much money and they can stand to miss more. There will be a salary cap of some kind when this is all sorted, but fans will pay a steep price to get there. Of course. The Skubal timing kind of sucks, but I think it's a horrible idea to pay someone $50 million a year, which is what it's going to be. I mean, if you can do 4/180 -- sure, but they're gonna want 8 years - and that's foolish. He's gonna break down at some point. -
Everybody just calm down. They were never going 15-2 again and you know what? Too many people thought this would be an easy game. I was worried about that because I think maybe the team thought that too. I jokingly picked Vikings 34-13 today but I honestly thought they might win today. Learned a lesson today But also - this is the NFL and you have to bring your A-game every game. The Panthers are not better than the Packers and the Vikings are not better than the Lions, but they were today The Giants beat the Eagles a few weeks ago, they aren't better. The Falcons are not better than the Bills, but they beat 'em. Two positives out of this 1 - A weakness or two was exposed just before the trade deadline and that's important to know NOW. O-Line is good, but inconsistent. It's tough to get good O-lIne players at the deadline, but they do need some help there. 2 - Some losses are wake-up calls and this was one I do believe the streak of not losing two in a row will stay intact. The Lions will be an angry and hungry team against Washington. I have very little doubt that they'll lose that one. We're kind of lucky that the Packers lost today, and as far as angling for the #1 seed and all that. I don't know, but I almost think it's better for the Lions to have some doubters going into the postseason. I think they eat that up. Plus, there are people who don't know how they are going to acquire food right now. So it's silly to let something as trivial as this ruin your evening.

Oh yeah, he sucks. Terrible. Horrible Coordinator. Yep, the other team socres opening TD and Kelvin adjusts and they go and win the game. But no, you know more. Why aren't you the D Coordinator. You should march on over to Allen Park and demand to be hired and go out there and show them all the ways you'd be better. I'm sure they'd just eat it all up.

You do have to wonder about some of these calls - how legit this whole thing it is. Purdue got jobbed a few times last night, but there were some strange calls that went against Blue too. But that Florida call..........Wow. And the MSU picked-up flag. Sound familiar Lions fans? Something VERY fishy going on there. I know a player's jersey can flap in the wind, but not 3 feet into the hand of a defender. But maybe Jonathan Smith paid off the refs so he'd get fired and could take the UCLA job.
