Marcus Freeman is an impressive guy. He’d probably be a highly successful leader in almost any industry. Football is its own thing and the jury is still very much out on him. He’s got a QB and a roster that can do special things for him. He had the same last year and it didn’t work to plan. He’s got a friendly schedule and I expect the Irish to be playing for a spot in the playoff when they roll into Los Angeles for the last game of the season.

The Lions are probably two years away from having to deal with similar problems every offseason.

Rod Wood made a comment this week that Allen Park will remain the Lions home for a long time. Sounds like the idea of exploring a new facility is dead. A likely casualty of the pending Sunday Ticket penalty that all the teams are going to have to pay in the near future.

I blame the poor Ohio air quality for this loss.

It’s ok to not feel bad if it’s an Indian or White Sock.

The Indian community in Detroit is growing rapidly. Drive around Novi, Farmington Hills, and West Bloomfield on Sunday and take a look at the community baseball fields. Cricket matches all day long.

I’m not sure anyone has come up with a more apt description of UCLA football and their long history of greatness.

I probably should qualify that I’ve been watching the Hard Knocks: NY Giants that focuses solely on front office activities. Their GM is very much a little bitch when it comes to these negotiating conversations. That’s definitely in the back of my head. Harris strikes me as a guy more in tune with the scouting and development areas much more than the negotiations and bargaining side of the business. That’s the part that my gut thinks he sucks at. I’m not talking about the entire job as Pres/GM (at least not yet..).

That’s rude and not conducive to intelligent conversation.

My gut is that Skubal doesn’t get traded but if he does it’s not for the Godfather deal we are all expecting. Harris makes an underwhelming deal that most Tiger fans think is way too light. Something along the lines of what @Greg Pappas was suggesting a few weeks earlier that we all balked at. 1 of a Basallo or Mayo and much lesser prospect. Not both of them and definitely no Holliday in the deal at all. I just have a bad feeling that Harris is a little bitch at this stuff and just kind of sucks in general.

Interesting thread title. My comments are the same as always **** The Packers **** The Bears **** The Vikings

There was that one guy that had a really bad debate.

At least she didn’t say Nikolai Volkoff

A pitch seen count is the next big thing Ryan Garko’s approach to amazing hitting.

There really is nothing that Uncle Phil won’t pay for his beloved Ducks.

Can’t say that I had that on my F1 bingo card. He’s probably a really good guy to get it off the ground. May not be a bad move as long as they replace him right around the time they are trying to win actual races.

Get clicks and make money. That’s all Colin Rugg cares about. He’s got no inside sources. He’s a 24 year old kid from San Diego.

Jonah Hill cut it out meme

Team USA has won its final two Olympic warmups against South Sudan and Germany by a total of 5 points. Maybe its them effing around and they’ll turn it on in Paris but I wouldn’t be totally shocked to if they didn’t come home with Gold.

I can only imagine what mtgaholic1 will post here afterwards.

This waste of a post citing someone like MTG or her ilk isn’t worth me taking the 3 seconds to look up the link to the picture so just imagine there’s a photo of Jean Luc Picard holding his face in the palm of his hand.

Any info on why Manu ended up on the NFI list? That seemed to be a bit of a surprise.
