Maybe I’m the crazy one but I think all of the guys on the TV talk too much.  I don’t need a deep dive into the nuance of baseball every single game.  I often just like watching them game and don’t need Dan, CMO, or Gibby constantly going on and on about inside baseball minutiae.   It’s nice to hear on occasion but that’s all these guys do.    I’d be interested to hear Jason solo or with someone else that wasn’t an ex-player.  

I want to congratulate Tom Gores, Arn Tellem, Troy Weaver, and the entire Pistons organization on an absolutely fantastic season in the community.  

Great work by all.  I’m excited to see what the future holds in the community.

Yotes have one last home game next Wednesday and it will be emotional - for the 5,200 fans that fill the place.   

 

Now, who would be in line for expansion next in the NHL

 

Houston?

Quebec City?

Kansas City?

Milwaukee? 

San Diego?

Fargo? 

Montpelier? 

Toronto 2/Hamilton should be the top choice.   These great people deserve a real opportunity to see a Stanley Cup someday.

Hey Drunk Uncle Tommy, I'd like to see some improvement in this community:

It’s hard to get drunk when you do as much coke as Uncle Tommy.

This absolutely needs to get rekindled.

Bring back the " Do it to me Red Wings " disco theme from the 70's

I’d prefer they bring back the theme where DeBrincat scores goals.  

Rain means most of the later groups won’t finish today and will have to play as many 27 holes tomorrow.

Not a good thing for all of the players with damaged knees that have some difficulty walking the course who are trying to win their 6th green jacket.

In the book and movie The World According To Garp,  Garp and his wife are looking at a potential new house when a small plane, sputtering in the distance descends and crashes in to the side of the house and into an upstairs bedroom.  The pilot (alone in plane), apparently uninjured steps out of the plane and politely asks "May I use your phone?".     Garp then proclaims "we'll take it!".   His stunned wife reacts and Garp says   "This house has been pre-disastered, we'll be safe here".    

Have we, having gone through all the pitching injuries in 2022 and 2023, been "pre-disastered".    Seeing all these other pitchers fall, I feel like we already went through it.   Doesn't mean we're safe, but feels like we were ahead of the curve on this one. 

This seems more like the end to A Prayer For Owen Meany

ESB is a free agent and will need a good camp somewhere to make a roster into the season.   Wouldn’t shock me at all to see the Lions bring him in for a shot.

Christian Fischer has had the chances to be the star tonight but instead he’s been Christian Fischer.

20 minutes to go.   Time to sack up.   

I hope all the MAGA are true to their beliefs and can see through this liberal science BS.  

You can look directly at the  eclipse for as long as you want.   Your eyes will be fine.  It’s just more made up nerd garbage like global warming and vaccines.

Canha takes a called strike six inches off the plate and Benetti says "That's in Windsor."

The ump disaster has become as much a part of the game as the 7th inning stretch.   Every game there are multiple missed calls and it’s just become accepted by the powers that be at MLB.  

Weaver must be salivating at the dream matchup of traditional bigs in tomorrow nights national championship.   

I don’t think Craig Monroe is very good but he’s not as awful as people are making him out to be.  He’s a little below average and not the worst color guy ever.  

If we want a pile on,  I’m really not liking Bobby Scales on the radio.   It shouldn’t be hard to sit next to the master and let Dan do his thing but I’m not digging him.  

I still think they are going to make it.  

Dave Perron is finally going to catch fire and Debrincat’s puck luck is going to turn around.  
 

The biggest issue for the MLBPA is Tony Clark’s dumb ass Santa beard.  Not sure how anyone can trust a guy to make good decisions who wakes up everyday thinking that’s a proper style.

Coming home 5-1, I can’t imagine the fans booing any of the guys. I think the fans are better than that. 

Best behavior goes out the window when half the fans had their first drink at 9AM.  

Harvey is most definitely catching some boos.   

It’s not really fair but Alex is going to be the 2nd guy getting booed heavily by the home fans during introductions tomorrow.

Jason Benetti has just became my favorite pbp announcer of all time by purposely calling out Manning’s no hitter and flipping the bird to one of the dumber baseball superstitions of all.

It has only been three+ innings, and I HATE to give Angel Hernandez any credit whatsoever, but his strike zone has been very consistent so far.

Don’t feel bad . I was thinking the same thing.
