  1. Best - Paul McCartney, Comerica Park, 2011 - How many times do you get to see any of the Beatles. But it wasn't just the historic thing, he was absolutely terrific. Never left a concert in a better mood and I've seen Prince about 20 times and he always blew me away. 69 years old at the time, over 3 hour show and the energy kept building. Worst - Evan Dando (Lemonheads), Blind Pig Ann Arbor, 1995 or 96 -- Evan was a very very nice guy. I am sure he still is. But Evan was deep into drugs and he nodded off in mid song several times. Its not that I was disappointed, but I was actually worried about him. Never have seen an artist crash and burn like that live. I've seen clips of Gene Ween destroying his rep on stage - drugs again. Supposed to do the drugs AFTER the show.
  2. Those who are questioning Anthony Richardson's commitment after coming out of the game from being tired need to read about J.R. Richard and then maybe back off a bit. Be careful. You don't know what could be happening.
  3. They just can't bring Baez back. If they do, season ticket holders should sue.
  4. And Byron Donalds is okay with them playing "Dixie". Wow. Sold your soul to the devil.
  5. Because I don't think they are going 17-1 this season, I think they lose this one. Unless they can grab an elite pass rusher somehow before this game. Of course TP will want EVERYONE fired and radio callers will bitch about Goff saying he's terrible, but all will be fine. I think the only team that even comes close to the Lions in the NFC is Green Bay. The rest of the conference is not close to those two teams. The Lions only have 3 more Sunday 1pm games left.
  6. Decker is a concern. Not looking good in pass protection the last few games. All kidding aside, Glenn runs an extremely aggressive defense that will get burned - often, but they also make huge plays and that physicality - that might a reason that teams always lose after facing the Lions. The defense will give up a lot of yards and it seems as if the other team will have one receiver that has a huge day, but doesn't get in the end zone that much. The defense must be better against the rush than they were yesterday, but Pollard is a lot like Montgomery - he is very hard to bring down. I think some of the issues with the rushing defense might have to do with having to use some of those guys to create some sort of pass rush. I hope Jos Paschal is okay. Hearing he missed time due to the cancer he had 6 years ago is really scary. But they absolutely need to find someone. Seems like that position is a bit cursed this year. A lack of pass rush breaks the whole defense down.
  7. The Tampa Bay game was the result of not having your offensive players play at all in the preseason. They were just out of sync that day. I understand why they don't play them, you want them being healthy and not risking a major injury, but there is a price to pay. I think the difference was that Baker & Co actually had played a bit. But there's another reason they lost that game -- because Aaron Glenn and Ben Johnson shouldn't have jobs. They should have been fired a long time ago. Do you realize that yesterday they had 5 series when they didn't score? Do you realize that Aaron Glenn just let Tennessee score at will? These are 6-11 coaches who are just lucky.
  8. New #1 on the Coach Hot Seat Rankings 1. Dennis Allen, New Orleans - 2nd degree burns at the moment 2. Antonio Pierce, Las Vegas - blisters will soon form. A constant mess. Bring back Rich. 3. Matt Eberflus, Chicago - Horrible coaching at the end of that game and bad excuses too. 4. Doug Pederson, Jacksonville - still very itchy with some red marks on his rear end. 5. Kevin Stefanski, Cleveland - it's cooled off a bit. The departure of #4 might save him, 6. Mike McCartly, Dallas. He should be #2, but I doubt Jerry does it mid season unless they lose 3 or 4 more in a row. Next year I don't think Belichick would take this job (lack of control), but I think Pete Carroll would. If the Giants fire Daboll, I think Jerry could hire hire him.
  9. I don't believe polls at all. First of all, they don't really have a feel for young voters AT ALL. Remember they all predicted a Red Wave in 2022. All of them. Nate Silver's gut tells him Trump will win. Well, he missed wildly in 2022. He has PTSD from 2016. Plus, I think he might be scared of retaliation (I don't think Bezos is scared of retaliation, I think he made a backroom deal for billions). I honestly don't know how Silver even remains in the game at this point. He hems and haws like a weatherman saying 30% chance of rain (that means they don't know and 30% covers their ass both ways). All those polls in the news are designed for one thing - to generate clicks. They're designed to scare one side or the other. The youth vote will be much stronger this time around than in 2020. Plus I really don't see a lot of people who voted for Biden flipping to Trump, but I get a sense it's a far different story for Trump voters flipping to Harris. Let them have their little Klan rallies. That's got Corey Lewindowski's fingerprints all over it. Let the comedian (nobody has heard of) say that stuff so Trump doesn't have to. They probably loved it on Staten Island, but look at Staten Island's record on race relations. Oh wait, there is none. Staten Island voted for Curtis Sliwa for crying out loud, they would vote for disgraced Rudy if he could run for Mayor again. They'd vote for David Duke.
  10. I guess God is a Commanders fan..........
  11. Wow, I guess their strategy in these last 10 days is amp up the racism. I just saw one of the most racist political ads I have ever seen from John James. If people treated Blacks the way he treats Mexicans would he even care?
  12. Who is that speaking? I know it's not Rob Schneider, but he's trying to be.
  13. I think one day, maybe around 2033 or 2034 we're going to see a really sad story about a 35 or 36 year old Tua not being able to function in any reasonable way. It's sad to see a young guy in that situation but he should walk away.
  14. and Aaron Rodgers loses AGAIN !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOL !!!!!!!!!!
  15. Yeah..............**** CHRIS CHRISTIE !
  16. Defense is not great but making big big plays
  17. Decker's gonna get Goff hurt. Pull him *for now* focus on running the ball more.
  18. I apologize, they might get 50 after all. Might give up 35, but still 50 is 50
  19. Wow is their Special Teams bad (or ours is incredibly good)
  20. Great stop by the D. Just dive on the 2 yard line and go in up by 3
  21. What a throw by Rudoph on that.............I thought he was in bounds on the catch.
