  1. Wow. Jordan Marshall........... Michigan should be in line for a nice comeback season (if they can get decent QB play).
  2. Looking up 2b and seeing their career WAR. How the hell is Lou Whitaker not in the Hall of Fame. It's an absolute crime. Why, because he didn't talk to the media? He had nothing to say, he said it with this bat and glove.
  3. I have heard Tom was a pretty heavy drinker. He died way too young. .
  4. I am guessing Minnesota 77, Detroit 48, something like that.
  5. Maybe being the 5 seed and playing on the road is better for this team.
  6. Lions don't have a prayer against Minnesota next Sunday. They're gonna lose by 30.
  7. First win in SF since 1975 And have the Lions ever gone undefeated on the road for a full season?
  8. Man, I have an SCTV Johnny LaRue marathon lined up, Guess I will watch that tomorrow
  9. But who really cares if they blow a lead? Doesn't matter.
  10. Best case scenario is they get out to a huge lead, show they are sharp and then the backups come in to close it out.
  11. Exactly. What's the difference. You take guys out of certain positions you leave other guys vulnerable for injuries from missed blocks and tackles. This team has one speed and they don't let up. That's what they do and they probably shouldn't stop it because you can't stop a runaway train and if you do, you can't get it up to speed fast enough for this postseason. It's all-out all the time. They want revenge tonight.
  12. Navigato - the surprise that nobody talks about. But he's a Super Utility Guy more than an everyday SS, but don't sleep on this guy. I would be more interested to see Navigato get a first chance than Kreidler getting a 5th chance.
  13. yes Leo's line "but I've been down here before and I know the way out". We can only dream it could be like this in real life. Too bad it's closer to House Of Cards.
  14. The fan next to where I sleep every night has High, Medium and Low. The Detroit Lions do not have variable speeds.
  15. They came out of the gate today with their hair on fire.
  16. How much do you think the NFL is playing Green Bay to tank this to set up next Sunday night's game?
  17. Is it too early to call Anthony Richardson a bust?
  18. Isn't it delicious, Ratko?
  19. Buffalo 40, NY Rodgerses 8 Aaron pulled for Tyrold Taylor who gets the only score for the Jets today.
  20. Rooting for the Packers doesn't make me as ill as it would have with Aaron Rodgers as their QB. I have not developed any real ill-will towards Jordan Love and I doubt that, given time, he will end up being as big an a-hole as Aaron.
  21. The year I really got into the Tigers was 1976 and much of that was because of Fidrych. I was 11. I knew who Al Kaline, Willie Horton and Mickey Lolich were before that, but the Tigers went from a 19 game losing streak in 1975 to having 3 All Stars (Fidrych, LeFlore and Staub) in 1976. Sutherland was part of that team. Then the next year it was Tito Fuentes, who would flip his bat when he came up to the plate and add a little color to things. He hit over .300 his only year with the Tigers. Middle infielders had no power back then. Then after that it was the dynamic duo.
  22. That's what I believe, but everything seems to be pointing to this team moving on, unless they think that it might have some sort of psychological effect on him, but I don't see a major league team making a bunch of moves just to put pressure on one guy. First it was telling Keith and Malloy to learn first base, now the Torres move. He's capable of 30 HRs, there some sort of disconnect somewhere. If they can reconnect it, he's a great part of the lineup. They fixed Parker Meadows, why not Tork?
  23. It is very interesting. I guess if I had my way the infield would be Keith - Tork - Torres - Sweeney - Nagvitago - Jung But I think they will start Jung at Toledo in 2025, even if he has a great ST. With thes infielders on my list......... vs. Right Keith 1b Torres, 2b Sweeney, ss Jung, 3b Carpenter, rf Meadows, cf Greene, lf Rogers c Tork dh vs. Left Torkelson, 1b Torres, 2b Navigato, ss Vierling, 3b Perez, rf Meadows cf Greene, lf Rogers, c Whatever Matchup Works, dh Rogers & Dinger would platoon based on when Rogers needs a rest Torkelson's future here is very murky. I am sure they are probably trying to trade him, but they probably wouldn't get much in return right now. Hanging onto Baez seems so stupid at this point. I just don't get it. Just admit the mistake, pay him and send him off, he's only in the way now. I hope he stuns us all,. but it just seems pointless now.
