What if SMU beats Penn State at Happy Valley. Would James Franklin's job be at stake? What if SMU blows out Penn State? Is he going full James Franklin today?

A team with that kind of talent on offense should be a lot better. Is cousins done? Seems like someone could use a veteran QB somewhere. I don't know that there is a player that took more financial advantage of their average talent than he did.

Kirk Cousins out in Atlanta Seemed odd that they spent so much to get him and then drafted a QB in the first round.

Navigato is certainly someone to keep an eye on. He had a very solid season in the minors last year. Might not translate to the majors but it seems more and more that minor league stats aren't always a harbinger of things to come. Aaron Judge's minor league stats would not indicate the kind of career he's having. Not saying that for Navigato, but the fact that they don't seem to be pursing options outside of Baez/Sweeney might mean that the Navigato option is there. It would be absolutely shocking if he's healthy this season that he doesn't get a call up at some point. I mean, I just don't believe in Ryan Kreidler anymore. I'd rather see them take a look at someone new. Andy had 21 HR and an OBP of .363 with an ops of .863 at Toledo. That's a very solid season.

My guess is that Bregman is over estimating his value by a lot and nobody is going near him.

Chargers just showed you, Lions fans, what the NFL is. Last week they got absolutely destroyed by Tampa Bay 40-17. This week they come right back and win a crucial game. I believe in Craig Reynolds. Last year's play of the year was by Craig Reynolds, if you remember.

To me, it's the last show I watched where I REALLY had to pay attention.

Guess....................It was a few listeners, not the hosts.

The reference is that the Emmys are out of touch if that series went something like 0 for 53 in Emmy wins and the Grammys are out of touch for nominating Khruangbin for Best NEW Artist when they've been around for 9 years and just released their FIFTH album in 2024. It's more of an insult to the band, like saying their first 8 years didn't count.

The attention to detail that Peter Gould and Vince Gilligan put in to this show just floors me. The editing for this and Breaking Bad was better than anything I've ever seen - tv or film. No Emmy wins. Zero. Emmys have almost less credibility than the Grammys now. Don't even get me started on that. And by the way, good luck to Khruangbin on their Best New Artist nomination -- 9 years after their first album came out.

Well, I was listening to sports radio on Monday and it's obvious. Jared Goff sucks and the Hendon Hooker era should start this coming Sunday. I mean, the Lions defense could not stop Buffalo, so obviously Goff sucks. And Brad Holmes is worse than Matt Millen because he didn't sign better backups.

I think it's delusional to think Sasaki is signing anywhere BUT L.A. -- and that means the Dodgers 90% and the Angels 8% and about 2% left over for the Giants or Mariners.

I used to love going to games and I live in Dearborn, the stadium is 15 minutes away from me. But I understand. It's so darn expensive now. My workplace has tickets and they will offer them up sometimes in an email. I can't go to weekday games (day or night) because of my work schedule. If there's a chance weekend tickets are offered, I'll jump, but that's rare. The games look great on my TV and if it's a stinker I can go get stuff done around the house, but realizing that going to a game is a hassle makes me feel like an old man. I turn 60 a week from today, so I guess I am.

They also need to weigh whether they will have to pay anything for Mize after this year. It's trending towards no, but I wouldn't give up on him just yet. But this is the make or break year for Mize's career. He had his TJ buffer year, now he has to show. If they cough up 25 mil a year for Jack, who else will they be paying in 2029/2030? That's a big part of this decision.

Baddoo has such an odd story. Hits .260 with dramatic moments in the year where he was assured that he wouldn't be sent down, but as soon as the threat of the minors came around, he kind of fell off a cliff. There's still potential there, but we can't afford to wait for it now.

Oh, you mean the anniversary of the last "Moon Landing" shot on a Hollywood sound stage?

I'd be okay with Verlander as long as he was willing to take a deal that was fairly low with tons of incentives

How many Lions fans see this season

That's what I am saying. This loss might actually be a GOOD thing. A thing that galvanizes them.

You just come around here and **** on everything about the team. Fire Ben Johnson if every drive isn't a touchdown. Fire Aaron Glenn if he can't make a 2nd sting defense stop Josh Allen. You're a joke. You're just a troll. If the Lions stumble you'll go around banging a drum about being right because they didn't win every single game. You have the most ridiculous standard of anyone. If they aren't 17-0 then the coordinators suck and should be fired. You're just a troll.

It will be the happiest day of your life. Troll.

It's so annoyingly quiet.

Lots of people jumping off the bandwagon at 12-2. Pathetic. The injuries are horrible, but I do think losing this game could be a blessing in disguise. Forces them to take a long look at themselves. Anyone who gives up on this team at this point is a fool. Anyone who blames Aaron Glenn for anything is an idiot. It's a loss. This is the NFL. It's not easy. The two worries I had going into this season was we wouldn't avoid the injury bug again. We didn't. My other worry is that for the first time in my life the Lions are the hunted and that means other teams measure themselves at how they play against them and are more ready to bring their best game. But I refuse to bail on this team. Not with this coaching staff. This team is as resilient as any sports team I've ever seen. And also -- this is the start of our run not the middle or end. This team is going to be very good for several years. There's a lot of work yet to be done and they're going to have to MacGuyver this ****........and I think they certainly can.

Is a Rat gonna walk across your railing like at the end of The Departed ?

Don't you lose hope now. This team has fought from behind all season. Every time you think they're out, they pull it back in !
