  1. That 2013 team had Fister and Porcello at the back of the rotation. Smyly would have been a back end starter on almost any other team. All those started were horses and you didn’t need to go to the bullpen as often. They also had two high end relievers in Smyly and Benoit. They lacked depth.
  2. The 2013 Tigers would smoke this team. They had a rotation that could miss bats except for Fister and they could slug. With more shifting and a staff that doesn't give up a ton of ground balls, they could hide the bad defense a little more. With teams substituting more than before, you could sit Peralta when Fister or Porcello pitched in favor of Iglesias.
  3. Maybe they should defund PBS after all.
  4. My favorite memories of those Tigers teams off the top of my head, most good some bad. - The Rogers and Bonderman games against the Yankees in the 2006 ALDS - Ordonez serious clinching walk off - Multiple Verlander no hitters - Galaraga perfect game - Game 163 against Minnesota - Guillen's 3 AM walk off against the Yankees - Guillen's HR off Jered Weaver - Rajai Davis walk off grand slam against Oakland - Game 5 against the Yankees at Yankee Stadium. Don Kelly hits a HR - Torii Hunter flipping over the fence at Fenway - Porcello taking down Youkilis - JD Martinez pinch hit HR again Chris Sale - Chris Sale binocular rant - Scherzer coming out of the bullpen in the playoffs against Oakland and working out of a bases loaded no out jam - Jhonny Peralta's game 5 HR against Oakland - Cabrera taking Mariano Rivera deep in back to back games - Cabrera walking off the field in Kansas City after clinching the Triple Crown - Don Kelly walk off sac fly against Oakland in the playoffs - Neifi Perez turning an amazing double play in the 8th to preserve the Verlander no hitter - The spring of Chris Shelton - Granderson robbing Grady Sizemore of a walk off HR in a Verlander complete game. Cleveland announcers go "It's gone! No it's not" - Tigers breaking the backs of the White Sox coming back from down 7 with a 9th inning game tying HR from Raburn and a walk off by Cabrera That's just off the top of my head from 10-20 years ago. If you weren't entertaining, you weren't trying.
  5. Since we're ****ting on the 2012 Tigers record, last year's Tigers team wouldn't have made the playoffs in 2012 since MLB expanded the playoffs.
  6. The AJ Hinch Tigers have yet to win as many games as the worst playoff season of those Tigers teams. Two pennants, four division titles, three straight ALCS appearances, and all of this started three years removed from losing 119 games. Are we being serious here?
  7. Trump is a master at manipulating people but is easily manipulated himself.
  8. Is this the kid everyone thought was Cabrera’s?
  9. Thankfully the US is here to defuse the situation. Oh wait...
  10. India is doing a genocide on Pakistan. I demand Trump call for a ceasefire or else I'm not voting. I'm also going to **** in the halls of Wayne State and play in traffic on 696.
  11. Don't count out Herschel Walker just yet.
  12. Glad the Lions have Bates so we don't have to go through the Lions should sign Tucker but they won't because he's not a culture fit.
  13. Ravens released Tucker. They release one sex offender and draft another.
  14. I also want to know how he squares the fact that since 2016, Democrats have over performed every election when it is not head to head with Trump. Democrats won down ballot in five swing states Trump won. It is a cult of Trump. Nobody wants this, they want Trump.
  15. I emailed John James and asked if he would be putting on his uniform and marching in Trump's military parade.
  16. Alcatraz closed in the 60's because it cost three times more to operated than other prisons. What's left of it is over 100 years old. The place would need to be completely rebuilt.
  17. Once again, imagine if Biden said this.
  18. A gay and black man is getting too exotic for the American public.
  19. And yet Democrats won when Trump was on the ticket and have won the special elections.
  20. I mean, Trump didn't win them against Obama's VP, why he win them against Obama?
