  1. They all want revenge. Refs won't matter this time Game won't be close enough Lions by at least 17
  2. Even if we don't beat KANSAS CITY, they're going to change it. To satisfy gamblers, too. Gamblers HATE this stuff. They will force starters to have to meet either an innings floor, pitch count floor or a minimum of having to face a lineup twice. What is annoying about that is baseball wants the type of parity that the NFL has and will never get a salary cap and this method gives small market teams (who can't afford $30 - $40 million for a starting pitcher) a chance to be in the race. The Tigers don't want to start a season with 1 or 2 starters and then Blender Ball the other 3 games, they want 4 at least legit starters. Will baseball force this for every game or just 4 out of 5/
  3. I am going to see the French electronic duo Air tomorrow at The Fox Theater. Hopefully we get a cell signal inside the building, but I am expecting that when that show lets out I am going to walk out to see a Detroit I've never seen, full of people having a great time - just buzzing. My whole life I saw other cities with people walking around and taking part in all kinds of things and I would dream about how cool it would be to see Detroit like this. This is different than the NFL Draft or Super Bowl or Final Four, those are great, but full of out-of-towners. But this is for US. Even if the Tigers don't win tomorrow there is going to be electricity in the air. One of my co-workers pointed me towards a parking app and I already reserved a space for tomorrow for $10. Will have to take the Q-Line to get to the heart of things, but I really didn't want to pay $50 for parking. Taking a rare day off work tomorrow so I wouldn't have to rush (I leave work in Ann Arbor at 6:15). It's gonna feel like a REAL city finally. Oh, and **** The Athletic.
  4. I am really really really really pulling for Tork.
  5. Status? I'm working on the air right now playing the new song from The Cure. Anything else you wanna know?
  6. Start him at 1b/DH starting on Opening Day and play him most of the season. Not going anywhere - not at least for another year. Don't give up on him yet.
  7. Dan is complaining about the strike zone. It's not your TV.
  8. Walk Nelson Cruz Always walk Nelson Cruz Bases Loaded? Walk Nelson Cruz !
  9. "Home plate is currently 25" wide" - Dan Dickerson........................ Passive Aggressive genius.
  10. Dan and Andy not happy with the home plate ump's strike zone today.
  11. A little puzzled that he's pulled after 6 pitches but he is available tomorrow now !
  12. YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES THERE'S THE RILEY WE'VE BEEN WAITING FOR
  13. Camera is not perfectly centered in CF. Yeah, that's it.
  14. It certainly FELT like a walk-off, but 2 things. It was the 8th inning and we already had a 5-4 lead. Thanks, in large part, to Tony Gwynn losing a fly ball in the lights and 2b Alan Wiggins having to catch the in RF with his back turned to the plate. Gibson tagged easily. Without looking it up - who hit that fly ball for the GW RBI ? (For those over 55 it should be easy).
  15. Yankee Stadium #3 in playoff atmosphere? Give me a break.
  16. Sidd Fynch is starting for the Tigers. Just a rumor I heard.
