The movie Major League in real life. This sucks. Oakland actually had good fans (when the team TRIES to win). Billy Beane should be ashamed of himself. I have lost every ounce of respect for him. Don't you think that maybe it's time for some sort of legislation to prevent these sports owners from holding teams hostage with the ransom of "build me a stadium or else......"? As soon as the Orioles got good again, Angelos was threatening to take them away. The Brewers and White Sox continue making threats and baseball is considering expansion? Tanking for a better draft pick is a good strategy. Tanking to yank a team away from it's fans is a crime. They'll just be called The A's. Why not just have them tour the country and play in Salt Lake, Charlotte, San Antonio, Nashville, Indy, Montreal.......get an idea of how the perception for baseball is before considering expansion.

2024 DETROIT TIGERS REGULAR SEASON THREAD
Motor City Sonics replied to chasfh's topic in Detroit Tigers
Start of the season (before first pitch) 20-20 would have been good enough for me in the first 40. They'd only need to go 14-19 for that. So my expectation has changed. 23-17 is my hope now. They'd need to go 17-16 for that now. With their schedule, they can do that. I don't care that we're only beating bad teams. That's what you need to do. Beat up on the bad, stay within .500 against the good. Do that, and we're playing games in October. Early season observations are - I don't care about each player's batting average. Doesn't matter. Find ways to get runs in when you need them and they are doing that very well. The hitting will come around when it warms up a bit. - The pitching has been epic and we're lucky that Chris Fetter stayed. He'll be a manager in MLB next year. - "Hey Matt, that was fantastic how you no-hit the Mets in an emergency start, now go back to Toledo". I get it, who else could you send down? But Kenta is going to become the target of fans if he's terrible while Manning angrily tears up AAA. - Canha, Urshela might not be the big shiny pretty toys, but they were very good acquisitions for this team. Urshela is an opportunistic hitter that will never wow you with stats, but will get it done. Canha does what he does. Colt and Tork have had some hard luck hitting lazer beams that merely show up as outs in the stats. - Every win now is one less needed in September. How badly do you think the Red Wings want those losses to the terrible Arizona Coyotes back? Has your record at the 40 game mark expectation changed, or did you see them going something like 7-4 in these first 11 games. I still hate Chris Sale. -

I don't think Craig lacks intelligence at all. I think he's just too forced. You can be enthusiastic and relaxed. Listen to Dan Dickerson for that. What little I have heard of Alex Avila was pretty good. Andy Dirks was solid on the radio. Dan Petry's a bit dry but fine. Jonesy is off-center but naturally funny and the best of all of them was If Craig would just relax he would be tolerable (barely). -

Herbie's son Givens lived 2 doors down from me (looks just like his dad). He'd snowblow the whole sidewalk on our block. Very very nice guy. -

I know it's the White Sox and A's, but if Skubal stays healthy he's gonna be a Cy Young finalist. As soon as I type that he gives up a dinger. I'm sorry for jinxing him. -

Oh my God. Don't give Monroe sugar, caffeine or cocaine before games please, he's intolerable. Just shut up, man. Can we get Carlos Pena or anyone else in there? -
This is the ad. It says it's McAfee. It popped up TWO minutes after I closed it. It seems to pop up every time I open a new website. Now I am getting nothing but ads for them here and on facebook because I dared to type their name. Can I ****ing sue these people?
-
It's the third thing I have tried and it's still happening.
-
Thank you. It's EVERY 10 MINUTES. Who over there thought it would be a good idea to just annoy people and to beat them into submission?
-
Please help. I got a new computer. First evening using it. The McAfee pop up ads are driving me ****ing crazy. How do I make this stop. I'm using Chrome. I tried a couple of things online but they won't stop. Every 10 ****ing minutes.
