If the offense is this good, why is he a bridge QB? If you draft a rookie they'll likely suck their first year, and like last eyar, none of the QBs blow me away this year. Acquire a veteran? Well, the good teams aren't letting theirs get away and based on the seasons that Russell Wilson and Matt Ryan are having, that not be the best idea - to throw a ton of money at a name in decline (which is the only kind of veteran you're going to be able to get). When Goff is clicking, he's a Top 10 QB . It's about depth and defense........Goff is likely the long-term guy (and he'll have his share of bad games, but better than a rookie. I guess we'll find out how good he really is if he gets hurt and Sudfeld has to play.

But isn't this when they usually stab us in the heart? I want them to win. I turn 58 2 weeks from today, and a lifetime of pain and disappointment at the hands of this team leads me to believe that with everyone believing in them they'll shite it and do what they've always done. Cousins in 1pm games had a ridiculous record, but the Lions beat them last year (almost the same date), and the Vikings were 5-7, still in the playoff chase and we had nothing to play for. Now the Lions are 5-7, still in the playoff chase and let's face it, the Vikings aren't really playing for anything - they are in the playoffs and even though they are only a game behind the Eagles for the #1 seed, that they probably won't jump them. I want the Lions to win. And I want them to win easily, because this Vikings team is as lucky as the Lions are unlucky. This isn't a 10-2 team. It's a 7-5 team that has had some breaks. Most of the NFL is like that. But prove it's different now by going out there and winning. Fontes won 7 in a row in 1991 to salvage the season, and this team feels a lot like that, but gotta get over the top first.

What makes Justyn-Henry Malloy a Worthy Asset?
Motor City Sonics replied to Useful Idiot's topic in Detroit Tigers
Joe Jiminez was the model of inconsistency. He was never going to be at a higher value than he is right now and they were not going to re-sign him. They have plenty of arms for the bullepn - it's starters they need to find, at least until next year. Malloy gets on base. Don't know if that'll carry over to the majors, but look through the Tiger system, it's lacking on OBP guys. He was the #6 prospect in the Braves system and he has outperformed expectations pretty quickly so far. Calling a guy the next Al Avila when he's halfway through his first offseason is a bit of a reach. We'll have to wait. I love what he's done with the off-the-field part, mostly. -
What makes Justyn-Henry Malloy a Worthy Asset?

Last year he'd have hit 30 HR playing in Comerica. -
At last night's Detroit Symphony Orchestra's performance of a Charlie Brown Christmas somebody in the audience yelled out a racial slur near the end of the performance. Isn't that nice............a Christmas concert.........probably with a fair amount of kids in the audience. They are trying to figure out who the person is and that person will be banned for life from DSO performances. Something tells me they won't miss that, since I doubt they are into that kind of thing on a regular basis. I hope they figure it out..............Publicly name them...........and I hope they lose their fucking job over it. I am all for ruining people like that. Sickening. stuff this blatant was not happening before 2016.

2022-23 Detroit Tigers Offseason Thread
Motor City Sonics replied to chasfh's topic in Detroit Tigers
Victor Reyes to the White Sox. Gone. He'll probably hit .250 against every team, but .400 against the Tigers. -
I'm talking about the kind of mass killing where people are just out shopping or watching a parade or something like that. Not the typical street violence that happens everyday everywhere.........well everyday in America.........the "greatest" country on earth.

2022 MLB (non-Tigers) catch all thread
Motor City Sonics replied to gehringer_2's topic in Detroit Tigers
He lost two years of his prime to this. Maybe there is a lot more to this, but I used to be believe her and now I believe him. He can't get those two years back, he'll never be 29 or 30 again. I hate feeling like this, I want to not go after the accuser, but I think of the Duke Lacrosse incident (those young men were ruined and their coach lost his job) or the Rolling Stone "Rape on Campus" story where a young lady who worked for UVA named Nicole Eramo had her life turned upside down based on a lie. -
2022 MLB (non-Tigers) catch all thread
Motor City Sonics replied to gehringer_2's topic in Detroit Tigers
Video comes out of Trevor Bauer's victim laying in bed with a sleeping Bauer and smiling, hours after she claims she was sexually assaulted by him. She claimed she was trying to get away from him and that she was terrified. Very interesting. If she's lying about this, she should go to jail - she ruined his life. I don't even like Trevor Bauer. -
A decision needs to be made regarding what to do with Ned.
