Motor City Sonics

Dude, it was about as stupid a move as you'll ever see. He was already in trouble. If he hadn't been on shaky ground, then no, no firing, but he was already wobbly, and as the Bomber says, Sean Payton is out there.

Wow, Mike Williams has a fractured back - suffered in a game that he didn't have to play in (Chargers were locked in at #5). If Jax beats the Chargers tomorrow...........Staley's fired.

May he be the Brock Purdy of baseball this coming season.

And he's ripping on Belt's numbers...........LOL

At this point, why would the Ravens even want Lamar Jackson back (at the ridiculous price he'll cost as a franchise tag or free agent). They might be better off going after Trey Lance, since the Niners QB room is going to be Tom Brady-Brock Purdy next year. Derek Carr might work in Bal'more too.

I see Aubrey Huff continues to make an ass of himself. Seems to be a little bitter that Brandon Belt got a job.

Chuck Berry's reaction

Remember, that interception that Rodgers threw to Kerby was not His fault, it was everyone else's fault for not having protected Him and that great QB's always throw a ball up for grabs in teh 4th quarter of a game they are losing. I am capitalizing He and Him because we know that Aaron is the new Christ.

If I was ever able to ask Cris Collinsworth a question it would be "How does Aaron Rodgers' schvantz taste?". I mean he was slobbering all over it so shamelessly. Worse than (submit CBS announcer here) talking about Coach K during the tournament.

Its good to know that we only have to suffer through 6 more years, though. I'll be 64. Will you still feed me?

Not something to joke about, not after what happened to Bump Bailey.

Have you heard of a group called Drugdealer? Had an album out in '22 called "Hiding In Plain Sight". It's like being in Laurel Canyon in 1977...........I think you'd like it. It's all on Spotify.

Biff, I gotta ask you.........your avatar............is that from the John Lennon/Chuck Berry "Memphis" clip? You ever see Bill Burr's take on that. I won't post it here because it's incredibly offensive, but it's also funny (and accurate). Watch at your own risk.

I've pissed many Nirvana fans by saying they are basically a pop band with distortion and feedback and to me, there is nothing wrong with that. Those songs don't become big hits (almost no song does) without being catchy. It's the way they are packaged that makes the difference. Dave Grohl knows this. It's what he does so amazingly well with the Foo Fighters. Dude can write a hook, and sorry that this would ruffle some feathers, but I think he's a better songwriter than Cobain. I liked Cobain, but I thought he was quite overrated and honestly, I think even he thought that. In Utero, was not as poppy as Nevermind, it was so much sonically subdued and darker and I think it was a concerted effort by Cobain to not have a hit record. It was a Be Careful What You Wish for scenario. It still sold a ton, because at that time, any follow up to Nevermind would have. I think Cobain was horrified that it was embraced as well as it was, he was trying the anti-hit and he couldn't do it, no matter what. He could have had an album of fart noises set to music and it would have sold in 1993.

Even as a kid I was never into metal. Now, there is some metal that is really good, but the thing that nobody wants to bring up about that is, the best metal songs, are basically pop songs amped up. Like Blues music. Nobody likes to talk about the fact that great Blues music is catchy.............sad, but catchy. I used to listen to American Top 40 every Sunday because I wanted to be Casey Kasem. At least I got into radio......... And Smells Like Teen Spirit. That's a pop song.

♫ To everything (churn, churn, churn). There is a season churn, churn, churn And a move e for every roster that you're building ♫

Even though I am a big fan of indie rock, "alternative", punk, post punk, proto-punk, classical, old school soul and funk, trip hop, dream pop and ambient, psychedelic rock, sunshine rock, Brit Pop, 60s, 'classic rock'/ I have a soft spot for Yacht Rock and I am no longer ashamed to admit it. Go ahead, make fun of me. I don't care, you like what you like. But if you can listen to Lowdown by Boz Scaggs and tell me that the musicianship in that song (the members of Toto) is not top-notch (especially Jeff Porcaro's drumming), then I don't know what you are hearing. Anyway...........this British guy Dan Croll, who I think nobody hear has probably heard of because most radio people don't even know him (I know Tigerbomb knows who he is), has kind of this Yacht Rock for the 2020''s vibe to him, and he does it very well. I am home sick from work with some kind of gastro hell virus and I was listening to this song from last year and it has one of my favorite uplifting key changes of all time. The uplifting key change is one of the key elements in so many hit records and this one is fantastic (at the 2:45 mark). I mean, the guy looks like Paul Pfiefer from The Wonder Years, so he's never going to be accepted by the cool people (the reason rock radio wouldn't play Girlfriend by Matthew Sweet is because he looked to nerdy - yep, that's a fact, stupid, ain't it? -- and I heard that from two rock PDs). You can keep Modern Country and any Hip Hop after about 1990. Don't need them. Not for me. If you like them, cool, great, but to me both genres are stale.

He does what Jim tells him to do - and little else. Look at the condition of the Athletic Department. Scandal after scandal. He's a joke. When Jim leaves (next week), Warde should be shown the door. I do not want this guy picking the next Head Coach.

don't look up.

Tigers have just announced an extension for Miggy. 3 more years, $112 million.

I just don't get it, because the Emmys seems to have a problem with the show too. Rhea Seehorn has never been nominated, which is ridiculous. The nominations are based on a performance in a single episode and Michael McKean didn't even get nominated for the Chicanery episode. Are you kidding. That was a brilliant performance - in 10 short minutes.

Maybe add Manchester, England or Dublin, Vancouver, Montreal, Monterrey Mexico, Berlin, Frankfurt, I mean, Rog wants the international games, well here you go, and nobody loses a home gate to play overseas. I would say Tokyo or Sydney, but the time difference is so extreme that you'd really be throwing the two teams' schedules off.

So our 17th game this year is the Baltimore Ravens. Detroit vs. Baltimore might be a good fit for a game in Memphis, Knoxville, Happy Valley, maybe Toronto. I could say Columbus, but fuck Columbus.

I just turned 58. All I can say is that most of everything is bullshit, but what the hell, I know this now, so I am not gonna let it break my stride. I just wanted to find a way, any way, to reference Matthew Wilder on this board and now my work is done.
