12.6 percent is better than 9.7 percent, dammit ! Where's your analytical mind?

They're taking. Shelby was told there's a good contract in it if he tries. They want that #2 or #3 pick, man !

Democrats are so stupid at campaigning. They should win by bigger margins but all this bitching about Biden's debate performance is only bringing MORE attention to it. Shut up and get behind your guy and if he winds up not being your guy, then embrace who's next. Stop with all the doubting and get to ****ing work, you own the issues.........The Republicans only believe in hate, they have no platform except to blame blame blame............you can't beat that? You're pathetic.

I saw it was 7-1 and I went and lived my life and this morning I see that they almost blew it? Wow, even when they win they suck.

Well, Tim, if it is you, did you check to make sure VP is a "black" job? Plus, the last guy actually did his job and followed the actual Constitution and was nearly killed over it, while yer boy stood and watched and did nothing. Sure you want the gig?

2024 DETROIT TIGERS REGULAR SEASON THREAD
Motor City Sonics replied to chasfh's topic in Detroit Tigers
Spencer Torkelson has 29 Ks in 88 ABs AT TRIPLE A !!!!!!! They done broke him. I think they feed him so much information that his head is a mess and he's up there thinking too much. If he could just clear his head and go back to what he used to be he'd be alright. They will call him up this year, at some point, and he will be in the 2025 plans, but things aren't looking too good beyond that. Eric Munson Jr. -
Wow, this collapse is becoming an epic one. So, will they take another high school kid with the #3 draft pick in 2025? Boy, that Hinch sure is a great strategist. And he seems to be getting these guys to improve too. Good thing we latched on to him for, what, 3 more years? And Scotty..........couldn't find a SS better than Kreidler or McKinstry, eh? None exist anywhere, huh?

Got a post on Facebook that it's Trump that shares Catholic Values, not that fake Catholic Biden. You mean cheating on every wife? Two divorces? (and a third one coming one day) Banging a stripper and paying her off? Or do you mean Catholic Values as in being around people that you know are molesting children and doing nothing about it? Yep, I guess he does share those values.

Here's one thing about Biden. He's been counted out so many times in his career and he always seems to come back. Don't count that aspect out. My impression is that yes, he was under the weather, he sounded like it. Damn microphones don't miss anything. But I also think his handlers, the ones who prepped him for the debate stressed to him "don't get mad", "stay calm" "don't get in a brawl" "be the adult", but I think Biden is a bit of a sneaky brawler and I think really pushing himself to hold back may have rattled him. Let Dark Brandon out. That's what people want to see. Whomever handled his strategy for this debate needs to be shown the door. No matter what, Joe, as in the muck as you can possibly get, you will never be as slimy as Trump. That's impossible. Obama's first debate against Romney was a flop. Same reason. He was far too passive, even for such a vanilla guy like Obama. He got a little testy (by Obama standards) in the later debates and was the clear winner in those. Getting riled up is human. Don't be robotic. Just don't count Joe out. His whole career is full of comebacks.

The people who designed the construction on Southfield near 94 need to be found, lined up against the wall and shot. JUST CLOSE THE WHOLE ****ING FREEWAY ! Remember what they did on 96 about 15 years ago? Closed it from Telegraph to Newburg............tore it out, rebuilt it from scratch, had the actual makeshift concrete plants ON SITE and got it done a month early and it's still in fantastic shape. What they are doing on Southfield is a crime. It's so poorly planned and they won't even fix it right, they'll be back out there in 3 years.

2024 DETROIT TIGERS REGULAR SEASON THREAD
Motor City Sonics replied to chasfh's topic in Detroit Tigers
This team's MVP would obviously be voted as Skubal, but I would argue that it's actually Kerry Carpenter. 20-20 in games he starts (I think) 17-24 when he didn't start They were 26-27 until he got injured and they are 11-17 since then. 32-44 since the 5-0 start (3 of those games against the awful White Sox). This is Hinch's 4th year. He and his staff are not making guys better. With Skubal, Olson and Flaherty pitching like this, it's completely unacceptable. -
Al Michaels allowing an A.I version of his voice to do Olympic recaps. WRONG MOVE AL. If you can't cut it yourself anymore, just walk away, retire. If you don't have that kind of energy let an up and comer do it. Opening a door here that is going to cost a lot of people their jobs and I don't want to hear the whole "this is going to happen anyway", well maybe so, but the people who already had their careers and are riding off into the sunset shouldn't be the one stabbing the next generations in the back. Losing all respect for Al over this. This will start something terrible. The Uncanny Valley. It's like using Audrey Hepburn's computer re-generated likeness for a chocolate ad 20 years after her death. Not only is it morally wrong, but it's creepy.

A lot of people thought Biden looked really good at his State Of The Union and it hurt the Repugnantcans argument of "too old". Muting the mics when it's not their turn is a huge advantage for Biden. Trump's strategy last time was to talk over him and shout over him to rattle him. It really didn't work. And I bet he runs his mouth the whole time his mic is off tonight too. We won't hear it too well on t.v. but Biden will hear it there. Just don't get into the insult game too much. Stick to the track record and not name calling. Be the adult.

2024 DETROIT TIGERS REGULAR SEASON THREAD
Motor City Sonics replied to chasfh's topic in Detroit Tigers
I remember the moment I really started doubting A.J. Hinch was last season when Andy Ibanez hit 2 HR in a game and then the genius yanked him for a pinch hitter. That really pissed me off. Put the computer down and watch the game, Andy's in a groove tonight, let him be. -
2024 DETROIT TIGERS REGULAR SEASON THREAD
Motor City Sonics replied to chasfh's topic in Detroit Tigers
My Nightmare Future post from August 1, 2024 Seattle's 9th and 15th ranked prospects is all we got for Skubal? And one of those guys is injury prone and the other is a strikeout-prone left-handed hitting outfielder. Wow, Al Avila could have done that. I just have flashbacks of Jose King/Sergio Alcantara/Dawel Lugo to this day. Losing faith in Harris every day. I know I need patience and that it takes a new exec at least 3 years to start showing, but nothing so far is indicated that much has really changed. I mean, couldn't find a viable backup shortstop? A real shortstop, you know, in case Javy got hurt. No one? Anywhere? A cast-off? A veteran looking for one more shot? Nope. I've already lost faith in Hinch. I just don't buy it with him. Why does it matter if McKinstry is left handed if he doesn't hit at all? What is this love affair with this guy? He's not even that great defensively. Too much Smartest Guy in the Room stuff with him. Ever work for a micro-manager? Not a lot of fun, is it? -
Biden's all jacked up on Crestor.

No, need to scare the ever-loving **** out of voters to make sure they don't think "we got this", like in 2016. I don't think they will, but lets not even put that in their heads. It's far too close. Biden is doing a really good job and it's only about cult of personality. If Biden was 15-20 years younger, they couldn't throw that Sleepy Joe **** at him. He'd have a much bigger lead. I get it, he's old, but only 3 years older than Trump and you tell me who is more focused and clear. Ain't even close. Trump has dementia. Joe has foot-in-mouth.......he's had that his whole career. Trump pops Adderall like M&Ms, but will scream Biden is juiced. But after this year, no more tired old men, man.

YOU SEE THAT, HE'S ON LIPITOR...............I KNEW IT............LIP-IT-TOR !
-
But he bats left handed and can play 33 positions and even pitch ! He bats lefty He's a left-handed hitter That's good right?
-
Dave Dombrowski was fired by Mike Illitch for trading David Price and trying to start a rebuild The Tigers have bein in rebuild mode ever since and will be for at least 2-3 more years. Isn't it ironic?
-
Freaking Prize Pigs. Look for any excuse to get more free stuff. They're like mosquitos.........always around, annoying and blood-sucking. Win great concert tickets with $85 a piece and then complain about it.

I have been told that the grass seed I planted (which has brought my lawn back from the dead and made my lawn one of the top 5 on the street) is not MONSANTO grass seed and I will have to pull that grass out. I am subject to a $3000 fine if I don't comply within 30 days. Then in order to replant, I will have to use their grass seed, and only the blend they approve, which is $200 a bag. (this actually didn't happen to me, but **** like this happens to American farmers and both parties are fine with it).

That first pitch to Gio there was not even close to being a strike. Does the ump have to go to the bathroom?
-
He hit a homer. Blind Squirrel today. Good for him. Happy for him. No, take him back and bring me those melted cheese sandwich appetizers you talked me out of ! A - Put a blanket around Reese Olson and get him some fluids. He must be in shock that his team scored 5 runs in a game he started. B - That White Sox pitcher really sucks.
