Motor City Sonics

Carol Burnett - One of the Sandpiper residents - A Casa Tranquila resident who talks Hector's ear off, thus torturingi him - Onwer of the Lazer Tag business (episode is titled Fun & Games) - Oldest meth user in the BB/BCS universe - Howard Hamlin's mother I can see her as Howard Hamlin's mother. Kim and Jimmy do their Meryl Streep and Laurence Olivier thing, then Howard's funeral happens a few weeks later and upon seeing Howard's mother, Kim starts falling apart.

Jesse's Aunt? Wait........Update...............his Aunt was named Ginny. Carol is too old to play Kim's mom. I have snooped around a little bit but haven't looked at any details but I guess tonight's episode will be more intense than the last one. I find that hard to believe. Tonight is titled "Fun And Games". Maybe Marion owns the Lazer Tag business that Saul kept trying to sell to Walt & Skyler. The title sequences of Something & Something (Carrot & Stick, Axe & Grind, Plan & Execution) stops with this week. Next Monday's episode is called "Nippy". We still have a considerable time jump. We are currently in about 2004/2005 and Breaking Bad starts in 2008. If we are to get at least one full Gene episode that means we've got 3-4 years to cover in about 4 episodes. The longest time jump in Breaking Bad was 6 months (Granite State). I think we get a big time skip tonight. I really think all we'll see of Walt & Jessie is the scene where they were wearing the ski masks and kidnapped him. We'll get more shots of the drive to the hole in the desert and the drive back to Saul's office and then we'll see a montage of moments from Breaking Bad that takes us right up to Gene. Almost feels like Walt & Jessie are being wedged into the story and this show has gotten so good it doesn't even need that.

We've reached the point of the season where we pause. A pause interrupted by two games in Oakland this week. Two games the Tigers won't win because they never win in Oakland. Where are you at this point? What is your mind set? Are you......... Apoplectic. You expected at least a .500 team this year Disappointed. You knew they wouldn't be much better than 2021 Satisfied. Few teams have had to deal with the incredible amount of injuries (some of them bizarre) this team has this season. Hopeful - Still a lot of youth that has to figure it out at this level and no way several guys have their worst year at the same time again. Hopeless - It's really bad and it's probably not getting better in the second half or 2023 I feel Apoplectic and Hopeless at this point. And I'm just f**king sick of the suck in this town with ALL of our teams. All four major pro teams are at the bottom of their sports. I see hope for the other 3 teams. The Wings had a surprising first half last year and totally crumbled in the second half. New coach. More young talent coming. Some decent free agents that should strengthen the depth. The Yzer-plan. Three straight great drafts for the Pistons now. They have a very good young nucleus now. This is the only way a non-glam city is going to have a chance in the star-oriented NBA where everyone wants to play in the pretty cities. They also look like a group of team-oriented guys, which is the only way it's worked for us in the past in the NBA. The Lions should be entertaining. No lack of energy on that team. The coach is a goofball, but an entertaining one and his guys play for him. What's wrong with trick plays. What's wrong with Tecmo Bowl playcalling. If you're going to suck, at least be fun. The Tigers? All the current cards in the deck have now been played. No young star coming anymore. They've all been here now and most of them have been very disappointing. Probably not their fault, they were dropped into the middle of a disaster of a lineup. Can't hide 'em. We thoughy Green & Tork would be Lou & Alan and it's felt more like Kapler & Fick. Hell, give me Granderson and Higgy and I'd be alright with it. I know these 2 are better, but there is little support in the lineup. The Castros aren't supposed to play every day but they're doing more than much of the rest of the lineup, and that ain't much. Team just feels cursed. The draft is now, the trade deadline in a couple of weeks. I don't care about Chafin, he was a guy signed to be a chip, but Fulmer and Soto, I am very afraid at how badly Avila will screw these deals up. Don't have to trade them Al. If you don't get anything you want, just keep them. I am hoping that after the trade deadline has passed, that Al will be let go. If not then, then after the season ends. If that doesn't happen my levels of anger and hopelessness will be as high as they were in the early 2000s. Not excited for the return of Jake Rogers & Spencer Turnbull. Ryan Kreidler has come back to earth this year and Kerry Carpenter will probably do the same thing next year. It's bad folks.........Really bad.

Jackson Jobe Jace Jung Jumpin' Jesus........................

Just wait'll the SECOND half !!!!!

No. I have no beef with the Castros. They've done what they are supposed to do. Neither one of them are actual starters, but they are both MLB-level utility players and they do that part well. I actually like the Castros. They are just in far too many starting lineups with this team - not their fault.

Dear Candelario, Grossman Barnhart and Schoop.................enjoy your week off...........in fact, you don't need to come back, they'll still pay you. Buh-Bye. Good luck.

I would love to say this is Al's last draft, but I don't believe it. You remind me of that kid in Animal House...................THANK YOU GOD !

Oh yeah, everything is fine. Al's good. Rebuild is over. Yay !!!!!!!!!

By the way, was today the 13th shutout?

But they have TWO Castros. What a mess. What a God Damned Mess.

OH YEAH

So what date do the Tigers take a high school pitching that can't help them until 2026, provided they don't mess him up?

Hey everybody, got a magic trick for you. We're gonna make the goodwill from the 6 game winning streak disappear...........POOF ! And it's gone.

That top of the 1st encapsulated the Tigers season just perfectly

Things could not go MORE wrong this season, could they? I mean, it's been, gulp, Lionesque. The really need some sort of exorcism. I used to joke that the Wings/Tigers were being punished by a curse because the Ilitch family lied about District Detroit. Starting to believe that now.

Only 258 feet....................weak, man, weak - he needs at least 8 more weeks at Toledo.

If you have Hulu, there is a series about the Sex Pistols called "Pistol". About 20% of it is true, but it's still very entertaining. They had more hits than the Tigers and they only had one album.

A whole bunch of players having career-terrible numbers at the same time. Coincidence? I think not. Something's not right with the coaching. They don't seem to be fixing anyone and I feel like they tried tweaking a bunch of guys' swings and messed them up. I don't know, Can't just blame the deader ball, which they might have swapped out again because Manfred does not know what he's doing. Have they been shutout 12 times this season?

Handsome Kevin got a little off-track Took a year off college and he never went back Now he smokes much-too-much, got a permanent hack Deals dope at a Denny's, keeps a table at the back He always listens to the ground, always listens to the ground.............. .

doesn't mean it's "poop air". I bet each and every one of us testing out own kitchen or bathroom would be mortified, even if you keep it clean. A certain amount of germs is a good thing.

I let my subscription run out. I'm just not watching this garbage anymore.

Wordle Worldle Quordle Octordle Sedecordle Heardle Framed Got 'em all right today. Didn't need a second clue on Heardle.

Columbus? Really?

maybe its for veteran leadership, which they have lacked recently (larkin is still so young).
