have you seen our baseball team?

come on! we come on this site for less thoughtful, more reactionary and negative responses! 🙂

his son is also the guy who hired millen in the first place, and sheila gave quinn and patricia an extra year when she first got there. i'm hopeful sheila will be different but lets see hownit works. she does have ford blood in her veins so you never know...

a titanic battle tonight!

livers is hurt again? he missed the end of his michigan career, most of his rookie season, and now he's hurt again. having hip issues is not a good sign.

1-16 might put him on a performance plan.

they wish they could because he's wasting an asset in that franchise. they botched the name change. the stadium is garbage. they cant move to a new stadium because no one will touch them if snyder is involved. he's costing the league a ton of money. otoh, what do they get him for? a bad environment in the organization? hell, half the teams in the league have issues like that! looking at you, dallas. do they want to open that door to litigation and all that comes with it?

that play is going to be on every red wings promotional intro at little caesars for a long time.

notre dame drew 10 million when they played ohio state. they have less than 3 million for every other game on the schedule. in contrast, michigan has drawn over 4 million in every big ten game, and almost drew 4 million for colorado state. ohio state is the same. even sparty does better rating than notre dame in a lot of weeks. put notre dame in the big ten and you'll get over 10 million when they play ohio state and michigan, over 6 or 7 when the play penn state or michigan state or even wisconsin, and probably 3 million in every other game.

dear nbc, you see the difference between the big ten and notre dame? that nd game was in prime time and didnt even get as many viewers as michigan state!

can johnson suddenly discover he's black like macdonald did? that way we could get a draft pick out of it.

i think it was belichick remembering who jared goff is, and the lions had no counter because all their playmakers were injured (and jared goff is a below average nfl qb). that said, did the pats expose the lions oline a bit? they looked bad in pass pro. matt judon took turns making sewell and decker look pedestrian.

i think they took a chance on a guy with great measurables who had a rap as having motivation issues. and it didnt pan out. even when he was supposedly healthy, he wasnt good. it happens. we know the lions' misses in the draft because were lions fans, but every team misses in the draft. holmes needs to hit on a qb soon, that will make or break his gm career in detroit.

i agree. that said, its been 6 games. there is A LOT of season left to play. these situations can turn around in a hurry.

zadina could still be a "perron type". but youre right, that's what we thought he would be and he has not been that yet. on the whole, i thought zadina played well last night.

its too early to call barnes and melifonwu misses. its not trending well, but they still have time. especially melifonwu because of...wait for it...injuries.

i dont see why brad holmes is above criticism. he deserves it for whiffing on levi. he also deserves praise for doing things like picking up cominsky and finding a lot of dbs who played well last year. not his fault half the team gets hurt every year. hopefully paschal can be what levi was not. lets just all agree we should really trade out of the second round next year.

getting cominsky back would be a real help. he was their best pass rusher and freed up hutch on a lot of those stunts.

seriously. will swift, st brown, and chark actually play?

tough break, but they got a point. the kings dominated them last year, so playing them even is a sign of progress.

its hard to measure that stuff in college football when you play very different schedules and there is such a difference in talent from team to team. iirc, penn state supposedly had a great run defense...until they ran into a good running team. michigan's defense will look good too until they run into an offense like a motivated ohio state in columbus. last year's michigan defense was good, but ohio state still moved the ball against them. and georgia eviscerated them. i think the same will be true this year. michigan's linebackers are still bad and they dont have hutch and ojabo on the outside. now, i think theyre better in the middle and better overall at db, but a good offense will kill their linebackers. otoh, i think michigan's offense is better than last year. jj gives them the ability to do so much more. that's your hope for ohio state: that one offseason is not enough for the buckeyes to adjust to michigan's power running game that's even harder to defend now that they have a qb who can move. they've got a shot, for sure. but i still think a motivated osu will beat them.

the concerns were about how motovated he is. very talented, but it didnt show up consistently on tape. took a lot of plays off. nothing about back concerns.

levi had back surgery. out for the season. i think we can write levi off. he will probably never play again for detroit. not that he ever played well anyway. c'est la vie.

amd valenti is just saying that so he can go on at the end of the season and say harbaugh underachieved and is a bad coach.

i think michigan will struggle against ohio state and any sec offense. their linebackers are bad and will get abused by sec speed from running backs. i think it would be similar to last year's against georgia, but probably a little closer. and i still think ohio state beats them this year.
