  1. They.............Look.............Lost Wow
  2. Aidan Chiles took the top of a defender's helmet right to the face. Oh my god that was a hard hit..........
  3. Watching UCLA vs. Michigan State Play 30 Second Commercial Play Flag. 30 Second Commercial Play Timeout 30 Second Commrrcial Play 30 Second Commercial Play (No Snap, Timeout) 30 Second Commercial Missed Field Goal (shockingly no commercial). I mean, COME ON, MAN - WHAT THE ACTUAL ****? THIS IS PATHETIC.
  4. UCLA is spanking Sparty right now in East Lansing. 24-7. Was Foster just a horrible coach and UCLA is actually pretty good? Or is Sparty really this bad?
  5. that wouldn't bother me. Anyone But The Dodgers.........
  6. What do you do with all these next-generation Tigers. If you put them on the 40 man before the end of 2026, does that mean they are subject to the lockout/strike and can't play anywhere in 2027? If they aren't only the 40-man during the 2027 stoppage, do they get to play in the minors? Losing a year of development would be awful.
  7. By the way, as far as Chris' motivation to win. The Tigers were in first place most of the season, but 16th in attendance - one behind the worst team in baseball, Colorado. So maybe he's thinking - when we're good the fans don't really show up, so why bother spending money, those fans are filling enough of our parking lots.
  8. Not sure that makes me feel better. I feel like he is the baseball version of Steve Yzerman. Maybe the owner has told Harris & Yzerman that they can't spend big money or sign any long term contract. That's entirely possible. Having all these prospects and then never using them to get all the way home is like having a bunch of really cool toys that were never taken out of their packaging because "one day these will be valuable". Sure, but by that time you'll be too old to enjoy it. I hope Clark & McGonigle & Briceno are better than Greene, Torkelson & Meadows. An AL Central team hasn't been to the World Series since 2016 and it feels like maybe we're just destined to be part of that - make the playoffs but never go too far group. This is how Padres fans feel. I mean, every year they make the playoffs and just can't get home. We've only done it twice and it just sucks. Just please, not the Dodgers again. Anyone else is fine, just not them. if they do it again it just cements the fact that no matter what you do, no matter how good you are at building a system, only a handful of teams can buy a title and it will always be them in the end. A salary cap would help fix that, but the idea of a salary cap will never fly. The players will never ever go for it, not even if a salary floor gets the majority of the players more money. That salary cap argument is why we won't have a season in 2027.
  9. I am glad the Lions don't have a player with AJ Brown's attitude. You don't hear Jaymo complaining about his numbers after a Lions win. Don't don't hear ANY Lions complaining after a win.
  10. Driving to Chicago, Toronto or Cleveland for it? The Cleveland show could be their last show ever.
  11. The Tinkerer won't allow it.
  12. All I know is that when I see a Red Wing on D wearing #52 I get Jonathan Ericsson vibes.............and those aren't good vibes. You can fix a lot in Game 2 by being awake. But if the Leafs score on something like 2 out of their first 3 or 4 shots on Gibson, we've lost cabin pressure. He has not looked good lately. I have to be honest -- I didn't understand all the hype about him coming to the Wings. Not saying I thought he was bad, or anything, I just didn't think he was all that great. Memories of Roagie.
  13. I know nothing will happen to Hinch, but he oversaw this collapse and he overmanaged this team. Could have left Skubal in last night for one more inning. You leave Skubal in until Skubal tells you to take him out in that case. Too much tinkering. August 2024 - June 2025 was more about being lucky. If they can get something really good I wouldn't mind trading Greene or Torkelson either. Do it before you have to pay them. They had opportunity after opportunity to be something, anything, in this series and it rarely showed. I mean, yeah, nice stats, guys, but Jumai Jones stepped up more than either one of them. I get strong Ryan Raburn vibes from Colt Keith. Nothing in the first half, makes you think he could be something with a decent second half and plays multiple positions, but none of them well. Reload. Take a step back in 2026 and bring in the next wave of talent in 2028 (won't be a season in 2027). And bye-bye Tommy. Once people figure him out he's useless.
  14. I am rooting for the Mariners to take it all. Really it's anybody but the Dodgers. The 1977 expansion teams square off. Only took 48 years.
  15. Aren't we forgetting to include Troy Melton's upcoming Tommy John surgery? Seems like a rite of passage.......
  16. but there is one factor that keeps preventing that from happening and if people used the term Most Valuable Player as it's true meaning rather than who has the best stats, then Baker Mayfield has to be in the conversation. He's not the best QB. He's not a great runner, his arm isn't the strongest and he's not the most accurate, but damn can that guy put a team on his back. Boy was Cleveland stupid. He only had that bad year with the Browns because half the team was hurt and he was beat to ****. He wouldn't quit. He never quits.
  17. I guess the Eagles luck ran out. As far as who the best team in the NFC is - I think there is only one that can really challenge the Lions and that's Tampa Bay, who is a few plays away from being 5-0. I am not buying the Niners.
  18. Why are so many pitchers so bad at fielding or throwing non-pitches (Joel Zumaya anyone?).
  19. Tonight and the last preseason game - that's frightening. Greg Stefan and Tim Cheveldae were better than that.
  20. When does the Pistons season start? Bad game. Young teams are going to have these, lets hope they don't have them in a row. The defense in front of John Gibson was horrible, but I don't think it's unfair to say he should have stopped at least 2 of those. Better clean that up in a hurry. Cam should start Game 2.
  21. Montreal getting revenge for Patrick Roy's last game 30 years ago.
  22. Bad D and Gibson is not inspiring confidence. They are getting the crap kicked out of them.
  23. Are these special occasion sweaters or new home tops?
