Most guys don’t get to choose. There are only 32 jobs, only around 5 are open any given cycle, and usually those five coincide with bad owners who have a rotating cast at the head coach position. If you’re Ben Johnson though, you can afford to be picky. If I were him, I wouldn’t take a job from most of those owners you listed. Certainly not Tepper, Johnson, Jones, Davis, or Haslem. Mike Brown might be an exception because he’s got Joe Burrow. I could see him going to Philly if the Eagles can Sirianni.

Not a chance. Beyond the QB, it’s ownership ineptitude. Ben Johnson can choose his own boss, and no one is choosing Woody Johnson.

If they were going to fire him for a 2-3 start with a 40yo QB who hasn’t completed a pass in two years, they should have fired him at the end of last season. The Jets are Jetting. It’s idiotic if they think Jeff Ulbrich is going to win any more games than Saleh would have.

NFL Coaches Hired in 2021, along with grade given by Sports Illustrated: 1. Robert Saleh (A): fired 2. Brandon Staley (A-): fired 3. Arthur Smith (B+): fired 4. Urban Meyer (B): fired 5. Nick Sirianni (B-): hot seat 6. Dan Campbell (C+): Mayor-Elect of the City of Detroit 7. David Culley (D+): fired Maybe this is why SI fired all their staff this year.

Whatever it was called live is what was going to stand. I think it’s atrocious for an umpire to say that a ball that the naked eye can clearly see bounce bounced off of a small strip of fast moving leather as opposed to the ground though. He’s just blindly guessing at that point.

This is not finalized yet, it takes about a day to cross all the t's and dot all the i's, but if it stands it will indeed be the worst performance in the 2024 postseason to date, and one of the worst postseason performances in MLB history. Skubal recorded four strikes on two of his eight strikeouts, and five strikes on one of them.

I was hoping for a GOOOOOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL, but I wasn’t disappointed.

Trying to explain to my non-sports girlfriend why I needed to listen to this was a challenge. ”The Tigers - well all sports teams - have their own guy who calls all the games on the radio, and when there is a big play I like to hear how they call it…….. I know it makes no sense but I PROMISE if you ask any sports person they’ll get it.”

Skubal had a strikeout with five recorded strikes on the K Zone earlier, all five pitches were above the last pitch of the game.

Now for a second off day in three days to travel 2 1/2 hours northwest

Yee of little faith. I never doubted the Gritty Tigs. 😅😅😅

Win one in Detroit and trust in Skubal.

I double posted this but it was true to the bitter end.

THREE GAME SERIES

If the TBS K zone is remotely close to being accurate, De Jesus may have the worst strike zone in postseason history:

One more.

Two more.

Let Vest finish it, unless he gets in trouble? Off day tomorrow, he’d probably be able to come back on Wednesday if he can get three outs without much trouble.

I just got one of those spam texts “Are you ok?” I am now!!

LETS GOOOOOO

Steal home Jake!

Plate umpire has been BAD tonight.

There’s just no way an umpire can see a ball BOUNCE and accurately judge it hit the flattened leather of the glove. He guessed, and whatever he guessed wasn’t getting overturned.

I cannot BELIEVE that was called a catch live. Absolutely awful.
