All that money A&M spent. ND fans are probably screaming for Marcus Freeman's firing.

Wisconsin lose to Washington State Michigan, be afraid, be very afraid.

Marshall knocks of Notre Dame App St beats Texas A&M. Wow. Welcome to the Top 10, Sparty (Coach Poll anyway).

I thought the players picked the hat, but the Hall Of Fame does. The player can object if they want.

BREAKING NEWS: Local Mail Carrier stalked by giant street insect. I, for one, welcome our new insect overlords, I'd like to remind them that as a trusted media personality I can be helpful in rounding up others to toil in their underground sugar caves. 3Amy Probst, Ben Holden and 1 other 3 comments Like Comment Share

Well the bad knees is part of getting old. Trust me, he is not walking away from the money. Not with those child support payments - he's going to take every dime he can (and frankly he SHOULD, not his fault the Tigers offered such a dumb contract). The Tigers need to just pay him and make him some kind of goodwill ambassador for a year. The Rocking Chair Tour would just be awful. Chris doesn't know enough about the game or respect the game enough to do the right thing. No more real milestones to sell tickets. We all knew the end would be bad, but not this bad.

Watching Albert Pujols going out in a blaze of glory with a first place team is really depressing. I wish Miggy could have had something like that, but the fact that they are talking about him returning is just silly. This guy's beyond done. He got his milestones and I'm happy for that, but it's just pathetic. It's obvious he just can't do it anymore. No reason for him to come back this season and they should pay him his salary for next year, retire his jersey and throw him a big party on or near their April 18th game next year (his 40th Birthday). It almost feels cruel at this point.

Depends on Prince George's first child. The whole Gender thing is over now. Its First-Born, no matter what.

If This and the abortion issue makes me much more confident that Democrats will retain or even gain.

Probably Rudy York's rookie year

If 2 Tiger Rookies hit back to back home runs in the 9th inning to take a 1-run lead and there is nobody there to hear it does it make a sound?

I think there is a better chance of President DeSantis having Merrick Garland arrested than Trump ever being arrested.

Oh look, more shenanigans from the GOP - in Georgia. https://www.huffpost.com/entry/video-election-deniers-georgia_n_63173eb7e4b0eac9f4d034df

Whenever I hear Ernie Harwell I think of 2 things........My red bike with the purple banana seat. And the time that all the family came out to our house to a gathering. My dad had 9 brothers and sisters and 6 of them lived closed by. Dozes of Cousins..............we had a pool. My dad's father was still alive at the time. He was Serbian and he was a very soft spoken and unassuming man (10 kids'll do that to you). We couldn't find Pa. Nobody knew where he was. He wasn't senile or anything like that. Finally, we found him sitting in a car down the street listening to Ernie. It was a hot day too. He didn't want to bother anyone by asking to put it on in the house "the kids want to hear their music". We had a radio and he wound up sitting in the garage listening. He never went to a game and almost never watched them on TV, he just loved listening to Ernie.

This story in Saskatchewan is horrifying. 10 people stabbed to death, several others injured. One of the brothers found dead (probably killed by the other). What the hell happens that TWO people totally go insane like this? They were probably on Meth. I know rural Sask is just like rural America with Meth all over the place. Meth can make people psychotic..........but 2 at the same time? I am only saying that because they were both in a drug program and a couple of the victims may have been counselling them.

LOL. We had that in Sterling Heights. House was built in 1969ish. It was a one-level house and it's not like it was huge, anyone's voice could easily carry through it. But my sister and I would annoy the hell out of my dad. Every time he'd use it (and it was never anything serious), while he was talking we'd always hit the mic button wherever we were and it would be nothing but feedback and you'd hear my dad yell out "ALRIGHT, THAT'S ENOUGH" Had a radio built in and on the weekends if my mom was out my dad would put Ernie Harwell on throughout the house.

In 1968 Ray Oyler played all the way until September 22nd.......................his last hit came July 13th. He went 0 for 36 the rest of the season with an OBP of .053, the same as his OPS. He was the 5th player the Seattle Pilots drafted in the expansion draft.

I fixed a bunch of stuff around the house that had been annoying me for a very long time. My bathroom and media room now have fully-functioning doorknobs that don't come out. (Older house, modern doorknobs did not work). Kind of embarrassing, but I basically live alone with a dog, so it wasn't a super big deal. Fixed my fence gate (for now), so I don't have to lift it to latch it. Fixed the front closet door (hinges were coming out of the doorjamb which is old. Used toothpicks. Replaced a broken medicine cabinet door. I am not good at fixing things. This weekend was a big deal for me.

There IS cause for alarm, Chris Illitch still owns this team.

Seriously, who is going to be Tiger Of The Year? Tarik Skubal, I guess (missed 40% of the season). Don't sell me Gregory Soto. Of the hitters the candidates would be Harold Castro or............or........Riley Greene? Javier Baez, having the absolute worst year of his career, leads our team in WAR. He has 21 errors with 3 weeks to go and it could be 25 if Torkelson hadn't bailed him out so many times. So infuriating.

LOL. He won't get it right. He'll go cheap. The only get it right scenario is firing absolutely everybody on the baseball operation side. I mean everyone. Why is A.J. in on hiring the next GM. That's very Lionesque right there. A.J. should be gone too. How people aren't lumping him in with this disaster is shocking to me. Several veteran players all having their worst year and a #1 draft pick that was mishandled from day one...........that's on him as much as anyone else. I'll stick by my assessment that if they don't fire every single scout and every single coach/trainer/evaluator, then they aren't serious about making things better. This has been going on for decades and the only time this team has been respectable since the late 80s was when they had an owner who was willing to spend stupid money to get guys here. Well we don't have that anymore and unless they sell the team, we won't ever have that again. They've hit on some pitchers in the draft, but not enough and well.........the last position player to make more than one All-Star team is Curtis Granderson (2009 & 2012). Either they can't recognize talent or they can't develop it - or in the Tigers case - I think it's both. I won't say Torkelson is a bust yet, but unless we get some different people working with him, he will be. I had a soft spot for Chris Fetter and the job he's done with the pitching staff, but with the unfathomable amount of pitching injuries on this team, I think you have to wonder if he has played a part in that. They aren't just unlucky, they're pathetic and the owner couldn't give a fuck. Well, I haven't watched a game since the day my dog died (July 6th) and I haven't missed it. Look at the post count on Game Threads in this universe of ours. Look at how low it is. I know we don't mean much of anything in the grand scheme, but we're the fucking die-hards and if we've turned away, it's a worse-case scenario because the passive fans will follow. No more cards left to play, the big prospects are here now, all they have left is Miguel Appreciation Day (which should be the last home game this season). What are you gonna sell us next year? Harold Castro is literally our best hitter.

I don't know how nobody at Maryland knew what was going on and they had medical personnel there and I wonder if they were prevented from helping the kid out. I can't understand how medically trained people on a hot day would not have spotted a heatstroke immediately. I remember watching Real Sports and a high school coach in Texas had a kid collapse and he did not hesitate, he had the kids teammates pick him up and run him right into the showers where they got cool water on him as fast as possible......saved the kid's life. How do all coaches not know this? How are they not looking for it on these hot days? The days of Frank Kush and Woody Hayes are over, man, thank goodness. Yeah, Brian Kelly should have been fired. At any point did Kelly himself tell that kid to get up there? I think that was the question and Kelly is like Michael Corleone, he had a lot of buffers. The fact that the kid texted "Gust of wind up to 60 mph will be fun at work, I guess I've lived long enough." and "Holy fuck this is terrifying" says all you need to know about how obvious it was that he shouldn't have been up there. And you know what, the guy in charge has to take the ultimate responsibility, but not when the football team is good, right?

If it was the Detroit Lions they would have run 10 seconds off................because reasons.

No it's not. Look at how many scumbags there are in LEADERSHIP positions. Including our own school Bo knew a predator was around and not only did nothing, but used the leverage to get him to do whatever he wanted.

Brian Kelly killed a kid. Urban Meyer allowed a future murderer to hone his craft in college with no punishment. Great guys.
