Here's the list since 1970 Farve Brees Next up is probably Carr or Randall Cunningham. So two in 50 years.

yeah my comment wasn't about wearing general tiger gear hauss. It's about nobody buys merchandise that says "we finished third ut it was a really good year!" Just a way to say nobody cares/remembers any body who finishes second.
-
Is it. Nobody wears Tshirts for finishing 83-79. Let me put it this way, if Michigan lost saturday would anyone have said. It's OK the year was fun and at least they were in the conversation?

LOCKOUT '22: When will we see baseball again?
KL2 replied to Motor City Sonics's topic in Detroit Tigers
Probably not. But, I also understand the major flaws in that article that lacks much critical thinking. To start off it takes the entire point that the lowest guys on the totem pole should get paid more. No industry works like that. Entry level is always the lowest paid. And the union wants it that way. Then you have the issue with the "fan complaint" section, the lack of understanding of top heavy free agency, the lack of individual cap contract in baseball compared to other sports, the lack of context about why a team such as the Guardians has spent 0 dollars, the lack of understand that every sport is getting younger, an inability to understand why a team like pittsburgh doesn't spend on free agency while ignoring the fact they give out deals to homegrown talent -- much like TB but we're not gonna complain about their lack of massive FA deals. The CBA hasn't gone towards the owners favor anymore than it was years ago. The players still have a crap ton of leverage and perks. But, the author here has ignored all of the things above to whine basically about the pay gap that the UNION created.- 1,851 replies

That article makes so many false statements, stupid comments and ignores all context on nearly all of its points.- 1,851 replies

Dan Campbell and Coaching Staff Discussion Thread
KL2 replied to Mr.TaterSalad's topic in Detroit Lions
I don't know why Lynn is suprising. An OC who loses the ability to call plays is basically a dead man walking. -
I get why people make that case, and it would make more sense if michigan right now had zero loses. But, they have 1 and then if they lose again that's 2. Why should Michigan get in over Iowa who would also have 2 loses, the conference championship, and a win over michigan. Does an OSU win trump all that? (or similar for baylor which would have a similar resume to iowa. But the whole scenerio is like 1 percent chance of happening)

I think its a bit much to ask a rookie to a hit third for a team that is hopefully competing for most of the year.

Till he trips over a blade of grass and misses two months
-
That's why I said when you have 0 you might be able to do it. But its hard to run with 7 on a 53 as rookies. Your draft is 25 percent plus the other 7 who were picks this year.
-
The problem becomes with that many pick 25 percent of your roster would be rookies. I mean i guess its OK when you win 0, but your likely in for a rough season with that many guys learnig on the jobl

I'd be stunnded if he doens't opt out. If he's close to current production he'd easily get more than 113 milion on the open market espeically when the top potential FA SS that year is Isiah Kiner-Falefa
-
The 7 is next to the 6. I've made that mistake a bunch and twitter doesn't let you correct. Also bowden is an idiot so he might just not know the difference between a 6 and a 7.

Could also just be a morning typo

That's just revisionist BS. He was bad in 2020, which I admit was a weird year, then got worse last year. That's now two years of data. He had a good rookie year when he sported an OPS above .800 and then every other years its headed the wrong direction. That leads me to believe the rookie year was the outlier. Those players don't usually figure it out after five years. They are what they are. You probably don't want Kreidler starting then next year, and some of what i said was hyperbole. But, I'd rather run with Nico Goodrum/Ryan Kriedler there than to be locked into 2/15 of DeJong when most likely by the end of that second year he will be a replacement level player. Give me the one with at least some upside.
-
He might not. But he costs me 500K and Dejong doesn't. It then begins an ROI question. 6 million for .700 OPS or 500K for let's say a .600 ops and use the other 6.5 million to improve another position to help make up that .100 OPS different or sign a pitcher so you don't need that .100 OPS points nearly as much.
