Motor City Sonics

At least we don't have to listen to Craig Monroe tonight.

Saw this coming the second Chafin gave up that hit. They're gonna do it again, they're going to be out of it by the first day of Summer. What a **** show.

And there's one.

It will when the Astros plate two runs this inning.

So Chafin puts on the first two? Disaster. Absolute disaster about to happen.

Detroit Caesars had better uniforms. Nike is evil. I've never owned anything Nike by choice. Yeah, this'll get the kids into baseball (if they could even watch the games).

I see these and a quote from Dorothy Parker comes to mind. "Oh, what fresh Hell is this? "

You just can't count on Kreidler. He's a walking Injured List.

Still hasn't been resolved? Oy, this is really bad for baseball. What a clusterfluk

Hey Ann, why the long face?

It's time to get right against a team who is flailing. This is the season. They fall on their face this weekend and this season is toast. Evaluation doesn't have to mean keep losing. If guys can't carry their weight they shouldn't be here. There are some guys in Toledo who are justifying at least getting a look here. Frustratingly they all seem to be outfielders. Where's our next shortstop? Go find one. Find one that can just hit .240, for crying out loud. Can't keep going with the current one if he keeps being a black hole. His defense is good, but is it THAT good? I just want a baseball Summer that matters all the way at least until the last month. Don't think that's asking for too much. At least the Wings made things interesting. Those uniforms are hideous. The Tigers regular home uniform is thing a beauty. It's the best in baseball. It's classy, it's elegant, it's clean, it's simple and it should rarely be toyed with - especially for freaking Nike. The only time they should stray is wearing the Stars unis (which are cool) and Les Tigres. A City Connect uniform without the OIde English D on the cap or front is a crime. I understand the Tigers HAD to do this contractually, but those things are ugly. Don't ever break them out on a hot sunny day.

Rhett Miller's a really nice guy too.

Man........if you take the overtime losses and just counted them as losses, the Wings were 41-41 and the Capitals were 40-42. What a stupid tiebreak rule.

BREAKING NEWS. Kristi Noem has just given CPR to Old Yeller and brought him back to life............so she could shoot him again.

Good Country? How about this?

I listen to music in a strange way, always listening what might fit on the radio and I rarely ever just listen to a whole album anymore. Always on the hunt for the next great song or on the hunt for the perfect older song to put next to it. But I can't get enough of the new Lemon Twigs album "A Dream Is All I Know". 60's and 70's style AM radio pop brought back to life. These guys are great. They wear their influences on their sleeve (and I am fine with that, they don't deny it like Greta Van Fleet did at first). Much of the album is a love letter to Brian Wilson, who wasn't afraid to challenge the listener, which always makes music more compelling (and it's why commercial country sucks). This is Byrds/Teenage Fanclub/Big Star here and I love all three of those artists. If you listen to current pop and country radio, the art of the harmony (and melody) is lost. Not with these brothers. (If I am forced to listen to a Top 40 station these days - like in a waiting room or store - the lack of melody and harmony and repetitive nature of it gives me a headache).

You all seem to be forgetting Antoine Green. He may surprise some people next season.

I know the game is a little different now, but isn't it funny how guys like Sparky and Leyland just put their best 9 out there and let them go and they somehow managed to win? Just pick your best guys and put them in the roles they're meant for. This ain't a video game.

That's on the manager - and it's not the first time this year. You know, you can evaluate and still win too? The Orioles did it a couple years ago. Ausmus Jr.

I feel so bad for Reese Olson. Can we expect more from him? He's been All-Star worthy so far with 0 wins.

I'm sorry, I will go back to the fact that the only time Hinch won anything his team had to cheat to do it.

**** you, Hinch. Got cute again, didn't ya? Reese Olson should punch everyone on that team right in the mouth.

Fireman Chet Kelly from EMERGENCY! coming in to play closer today. If he puts the first guy on base, I'm gonna need Roy DeSoto and Johnny Gage !

What happened to Baez? What went wrong?

They have not named anyone the closer, have they? Aren't they going with the hot hand until they aren't?
