If Harbaugh leaves............then who?
Motor City Sonics replied to Motor City Sonics's topic in College Sports
I don't know if he eats breakfast cereal with Gatorade. How can you trust that? I still think Matt Campbell is high up there, despite the bad year. Iowa State is not exactly a football mecca. O'Brien. I don't know...........I think they would want to go younger. Promoting from within - that's the Mike Macdonald angle. He's not there now, but he part of the family and connected to both Harbaugh brothers. That makes him the inside guy in this scenario since they really have nobody else ready to step into that. If Mike Hart was an OC, I'd say maybe. Plus there might be a health issue. If Michigan hadn't gotten thrashed by TCU so badly, Minter might be okay, but, no, probably not now. -
2022-23 Detroit Tigers Offseason Thread
Motor City Sonics replied to chasfh's topic in Detroit Tigers
I can see Miggy having some "back issues" this season..............he clearly hinted that he didn't really want to come back, but he wasn't going to retire with 32 million on the table. I'd be shocked if he played more than 70 games this year. Go get me Donovan Solano. .350 OBP after his 2 year absence Former Giants player, so Scott knows him. Can probably get him for 6 million So if they can sign Solano (how sad that my hopes rest on fucking Donovan Solano)) C - Haase/Rogers. I think this was the plan all along. Sands is insurance. Rogers will be ready, he could have played at the end of last year. 1b - Vierling - Unless Tork absolutely tears it up in spring training, I think he starts in Toledo and has to earn his way back. Vierling can cover 3b and LF when Tork destroys Triple A pitching out of pure anger. 2b - Schoop. One of the best defensive 2b in baseball does not need to be moved. SS - Baez - We'd be better off with him at 2b, but we have no real options here, yet 3b - Solano - We have no natural 3b, so he'll have to do. He can cover SS and 2b too. RF - Austin Meadows - His 162 game average is .259/.334/.475. That would be nice. Don't have to baby him with lots of DH time. He's only 27 - either he can play or he can't. CF - Greene - The most solid guy in the lineup already? Lets not turn him into a superstar, only to be disappointed LF - Carpenter/Baddoo - Both left-handed. Maybe Malloy comes into play if he keeps that OBP high in Toledo DH - Cabrera, though I can easily see more starts here for a combination of other players. Bench guys......Lipcius & Maton. I think Kriedler would be better off playing every day in Toledo, even thought the way AJ juggles players, few sit on the bench for long stretches. Rotation on Opening Day E Rodriguez - Matt Manning - Matthew Boyd - Mike Lorenzen - (Beau Brieske, Joey Wentz or Wilmer Flores) I fully expect Manning to end up on the long term DL. No idea what to expect from Boyd, he throws much harder now? Mike Lorenzen - a starter? he hasn't thrown 100 innings since 2015. How healthy is Brieske. Was Wentz a fluke. Flores will be the big Spring Training buzz. Bullpen Alexander - Cisnero - Englert - Foley - R Garcia - Lange - Turnbull - Vest Closer by committee (Lange, Foley, Vest). -
Phillies “Working On A Trade” For Gregory Soto
Motor City Sonics replied to RaceDog's topic in Detroit Tigers
Gregory Soto is a pimp. He could never have outfought Alex Lange. Who is our closer? Well, does it matter? Gotta have leads first. Leads? The good leads. And to you they're gold, only you don't get them. To give them to you would just be like throwing them away They're for closers only -
If Harbaugh leaves............then who?
Motor City Sonics replied to Motor City Sonics's topic in College Sports
A couple other NFL names that could be in the mix Mike Vrabel (if he is fired) Mike McDaniel, just a name, I think they'd have to hire someone who has been at least a Coordinator for a successful Power 5 team -
I feel like it's only a matter of days before something happens. Right after Black Monday. I guess he'll only go to place where he doesn't have to interview. Miami and Indy are the top two in that regard. I think the #1 candidate to replace him would be Mike Macdonald, 35. Others of interest Matt Campbell, Iowa State HC, 43 years old Dan Lanning, DC at Georgia 36 Todd Monken, Georgia OC, 58 Tony Elliott, Virginia HC, 43 Bill O'Brien, Former Penn State coach, 53 Dave Aranda, Baylor Head Coach, 46 P.J. Fleck, Minnesota 42 Graham Harrell, Purdue OC, 37 Mark Stoops, Kentucky Head Coach, 55 Kliff Kingsbury, Soon to be former Arizona Cardinals Coach, 43 Jesse Minter, Michigan DC Mike Hart, Michigan Run Game Coordinator Scott Frost, former Neb.........just kidding Other names.......please. and no, Urban Meyer will not be offered the job. And I don't think it has to be a "Michigan Man" this time. A couple things on Mike Macdonald. Why doesn't he capitalize the first D? And if I hear Yah Mo Be There one more time I'm gonna Yah Mo burn this place to the ground.

The NCAA is a cesspool. Having them discipline teams is like having a corporation do their own investigation into a faulty part or a dangerous side effect. But still, don't lie, don't cover up. Don't go all Nixon on 'em.
-
Give me the Jags. Mostly to cement what an asshole Urban Meyer was but also to avoid an 8-9 in the playoffs.
-
Rumors abound that if Miami loses and misses the playoffs that Mike McDaniel and the GM could be out. Keep an eye on that one, because that is where Harbaugh would go and he would probably get GM-type power. Remember Stephen Ross is a Michigan guy and has donated a ton to the school. Harb-Odds 1. Colts 2. Panthers 3. Broncos 4. Cardinals 5. Commanders if McDaniel is fired 1. Dolphins - By far. 2. Colts 3. Panthers Who cares after that.

OK music lovers — here are the rules: Answer each category with a SONG. No repeats and don’t use the internet (it's tempting but try not to).

So help me with this because I lost track a long time ago.............. What is the thing with Hunter Biden, anyway? Is it that he benefitted by being the son of a Senator/Vice President? Because that has never, ever happened before. Just like Aunt Becky bribing her kids into to USC never ever happened before she did it. Just in a few sentences, enlighten me, because I refused to read any of their bullshit conspiracy-laden blogs. (I know it's just so they can get at Joe, but Hunter does not work in the administration like someone else's kids did).

I think it will boost the Dems actually because it makes the Repugnantcans look like they can't govern. Because they can't, and as much as bungling things pisses people off, not trying to make anything work is worse. It will make the Republicans look bad when people can't get services or checks. Does it feel to you, like to me, that the Debt Ceiling is like the Salary Cap in the NFL. Yes, it's there, but.............

Gee, I wonder why its harder to get people to be teachers.
-
Well, need to go after the parents with all the vigor of the Crumbleys. No way a 6 year old gets their hands on a gun without some adult being held responsible.

With this One Vote rule................How many Speakers will we have over the next 2 years? I say 4.

they are going to shoot themselves in the foot with all of these............

Yep. That's the real issue here, not the minor violation. He's gonna bolt............and when he does Warde Manuel absolutely MUST be fired. The Athletic Department is a disaster. The Bo statue needs to come down. Sick of it. Sick of Juwan Howard's childish antics too. It's all embarrassing.

Jocelyn Benson awarded today by PRESIDENT Biden. She received the Citizen's Medal for standing up for the election. I like her. I want her as the next Governor or Senator from Michigan. Those assholes on January 6th.............I think they should all rot in jail for life. Pieces of shit.

Our Brand Is Crisis

That's why Regan wanted to get them working legally (even as non citizens) and collecting taxes on them so they were paying into the system, that crazy liberal.
-
I would love to see one of these unemployed Sov. Citizens go to court, proclaim their SovCit stupidity and have a judge cut them off all government support. So many of them are unemployable, they'd sing a different tune very quickly.
-
I wonder how many of those people collect Unemployment, Welfare, Disability, Social Security or Medicare/Medicaid Bet the percentage is much higher than everyone else

He illegally downloaded Madden 15 on his Laptop.................Joe Biden must be impeached.

Yes, it likely means a suspension, but it won't this time because he's leaving for the Colts job. So, does the Type 1 punishment get pushed onto UofM now? If nobody else at the school had anything to do with it? Probably. Someone will have to pay.
