LOL, You're the one who brought up Biden taking a tumble!  He must be living rent free inside your head.  

Biden is still the POTUS and its news worthy that he did something that could impact his health or show more proof he has other health issues.  Liberals prefer to sweep it under a rug to take the spotlight off his declining health and damage he has done to the USA.  Donald Trump is a private citizen and if he falls down it doesn't matter.  He has no power to do anything and is totally irrelevant. 

Max took the pole in a wet qualifying session.  Alonso starting next to him on the front row.  Racing in the rain is a benefit to the best drivers.   Since Charlie was starting last because of penalties he only ran a couple laps.  

I think the last time the Tigers played like this was Miggy's 3000th hit game.  After that it was another losing streak.  Hopefully this isn't the start of another long streak of futility.

Trump can't even get on a fucking bike.

Try again.

You really should try to evict Trump from living rent free from your brain.  Do you blame everything that happen to you on Trump?  I don't post much anymore in the politic section because of the stupidity of some of the comments like yours.

Don't forget this one.  I heard he fell up the stairs again again on the way to the Kimmel show a couple weeks ago.

That is a complete mess of a batting order.

I does look like a mess but then again does it really matter. If nobody is going to hit it makes do difference when they take their turn?

Oh no, Joe took a tumble.  His bike riding days are probably over since its too dangerous for someone in his condition.

I hate to even suggest this, because its totally against my nature to want to do something rash, but the way that Schoop has been dogging it everywhere, I honestly think I would DFA him just to make a point.

I would DFA Grossman before Schoop.  I think Grossman is signed through this year but Schoop has another year left on his deal.  Plus there are a lot of OF in the system that could take his place and never miss him.  Real OF too not just someone sent to the OF like Willi.  Doesn't mean they can't bench Schoop and play Clemens or bring up Kreidler.

 Lasorda's comment about couldn't hit water fits good wirh the 2022 Tigers too.

How long before we get harold or clemens on the mound?  Hinch doesn't want to wear out the pen.

You guys are so negative.  Look at the positive side that we don't have to wait until the top of the 9th for the Tigers to lose the game.

A.J. Hinch is an authoritarian who is powerful enough that he can limit how much General Manager Avila and Owner Ilitch can speak to the press during the season.

Hinch is also a weakling in the clubhouse who was passive in Houston while the team cheated in front of him and he doesn’t seem to be much different now. 

Yup, a guy like that is definitely terrible, all right.

I don't look at what Hinch did in Houston is anything that really matters now.  What's important is how he is managing the team now and the decisions he is making.  A lot of the team is not playing to their ability especially at the plate.  This has gone on long enough with too many players that a coaching change should've been made a while ago.  That is on Hinch and Avila.  Letting Sosa go too long last night is on Hinch. We had to endure three position player pitching two games ago to preserve the pen but then last night Hinch was afraid to use them.  I don't know if Hinch has failed bad enough to fire him yet but if he hasn't then in my opinion he should be on very thin ice and the end is near.  

A lot of people will blame Soto but those three runs are 100% on mismanagement and Hinch.  Once the bases were loaded Hinch should of had Vest or Chaffin ready to come in and Soto sat down.  Did Hinch really think Soto was going to find his form after 25 pitches.  He didn't look good from the first batter.

This is not correct.

The "base" of the Democrats is NOT the extreme left. There are a large proportion of centrists, Independents, and "traditional" Democrats. The HARD left Democrats do not make up the bulk of the Democratic Party, and to Tater's point, even those people are trying to help other people with positive policies that in their mind, are good for the US.

The BASE of the Republican Party is NOW primarily (the primaries PROVE that) right wing extremists who want to shit all over our Democracy and the Constitution of the United States. They want to establish a Fascist Dictatorship.

The makeup of these two parties is NOT equivalent. 

So quit trying.

You would have to be born after 2000 to think this.  Todays democrats are nothing like democrats of the past generations.  Current dems are the most anti-American fascists ever.  Yes, there are some far right crazies in the Republican party but a lot more far left wack jobs in the democrat party.  Up until around 1990 Dems and Republicans had the same goals and that was to better the USA.  They just had different ways of obtaining it.  Today's democrats are more about what they can do for people in other countries, how they can support criminals and crazies and tear down the USA.  Biden and his comrades have not done one single thing to help the American people.  He goes down as the biggest failure as POTUS ever!

Nothing against the guy because he truly is a genius and knows his shit, but when Tom House is the highlight of your broadcast, the product just sucks.

I was thinking the same thing.  Maybe in tomorrow's game they can get a retired librarian to come in and explain the dewey decimal system in great detail.  While I'm complaining, I'm getting really sick of hearing Matt Shepard say "crooked number."   At this point I'm ready to fire the whole team including the announcers.  Can't the Tigers bring up a TV guy from the minors and give him or her a chance?  Shepard is the absolute worst.

Roger Clemens had 0 home runs and a .261 OBP in his first 26 PA.  His son, Kody Clemens, has 0 home runs and a .160 OBP in his first 25 PA.  

It probably took him 20 years to get 26 PA since he pitched in the AL the first 20 years of his career.

You might want to sit down.  You are going to be waiting a while.

This isn't really Tiger news but KC released Jacoby Jones.  He was striking out at over 40% of his ABs.  Every time Javy Baez comes to bat it reminds me of Jones and how lost both of them look at the plate.  There is very little hope of them getting on base let alone driving a run in.

WTF... Willi in CF over Reyes who's in RF.  This has to be a joke.  I'm hoping for a managerial change in the offseason at the latest.

Jacob Barnes dfa, Derek Hill optioned to Toledo.

Hutchison and Alexander called up. Hutch will start tomorrow.

I agree with the Barnes move but sending down the one guy on the team that can actually play CF defense is not smart.  There has to be other options than Hutchinson too.  It makes me think they've decided to lose the game before it even started.  More and more I think the best move that could be made is a managerial change.  Maybe package a deal to trade both Hinch and Avila to another team for a part time hot dog vendor.  It would be better deal than a lot of the moves we've seen the last few years.

Alexander could pitch Tuesday or he could get a few more outings in Toledo…no decision yet.

Tigers are doing fine without Cisnero so him being delayed is not that big of a deal.  If Alexander is going to be in the pen that's not much help right now either.  They need starters.

To finish first you must first finish!  It will be interesting later in th year when or if the bulls and red cars have to start taking penalties for extra power units.

Even if Charlie didn't blow up I think Max had the speed to overtake him but we'll never know.

This sham of a committee is an democrat election ploy trying to take the spotlight off the failed Biden administration and their policies that are hurting the American people and the country so badly.  The democrats have even hired TV production to make the hearing better TV.   Anyone with half a brain can see it for what it is and the gullible latch on to their party's every word thinking "We have something here!"  Sorry but its just another democrat goat f*@%.  Don't even think for a minute its bipartisan.  Those two RINO clowns are not even close to being conservatives.  The democrats are leading them around like dogs and they're too dumb to realize it.

Eaton is just another low IQ liberal playing to his base.  Here is an article explaining who this clown is.

I realize you post this to slant the info but if you want to be accurate you would need to break your graph down farther.  How many of these gun deaths come from big cities?  Big cities are where you find your gangs, unlawful gun owners and most of your gun related deaths.
