Ned has that Dom Hasek acrobatic as hell thing going on right now...fun to watch.

Casey is the basketball version of Ron Gardenhire.

For me...This is the most frustrating season in recent memory. 0-9-1 when they could easily...as in EASILY be 4-6. First year out of the gate after the Patricia era..4-6 would look good.

Rasmussen's line was pretty good the other night. He took a nice feed from Erne and hit the post..Namestikov took a really nice pass from him and banged it off the post. I think that line has looked pretty good at times. Ras still needs to pick up his skating a bit.

Is there a good way to be Jerry Jones?

Soderblom is the leading goal scorer on the top team in what is...arguably...the third best league in the world. Can't wait to see him play in NA.

Earl Weaver preached pitching, defense and three-run HR's as the keys to winning. It seemed like everyone but Mark Belanger was a threat to go yard on those teams

Rynearson stadium would be great because it's the closest to my house

"They" say a lot of things...."call before you dig"..."look both ways before you cross"..."don't put your finger in a light socket."..Frankly...I've had it with the nanny state

The "Guardians"...how much did the popularity of the Guardians of the Galaxy and the MCU play into the choice of that name? They would join the Anaheim Ducks (ne Mighty Ducks of Anaheim) and the Toronto Raptors (Jurassic Park) as teams with names influenced by popular cinema. The next expansion team should be called the Baseball Furies..but MLB may not be good with all the make up

ESPN+ has tons of college sports and some KHL games too...It has become a favorite of mine

If we sign Correa, will we Return to Forever?

Prince Fielder's exit from Detroit was sad...from the way he belly flopped towards third like an Orca trapped on a beach to his post game comments that conveyed a definitive IDGAF message. Maybe the saddest exit a prominent athlete has made in Detroit...at least that I can recall

If I had Stafford's injury hx, I wouldn't be lowering my shoulder to take hits running the ball. I hope he does well...he deserved better than he got here.

The Lions haven't had a truly dynamic DE since Ziggy..drafting Thibodeaux would certainly compliment the interior DL selections they made last year. He definitely fills a tough need to fill. I just look at our secondary...it's such a disaster that getting a top end safety back there would make a huge difference. Do they have a better chance of finding that guy later in rd 1 than they do an edge? Maybe yes...maybe no. I think Thibodeaux is the likely pick....I just like looking at our options

Yeah...it's tough to argue with what you're saying. I really like Hamilton and Thibodeaux...we drafted Bennie Blades at 3 in 1988 and he anchored the secondary for close to a decade. I think Hamilton could do that and give us some flexibility in our defensive packages. I don't think we can go wrong with either.

I could live with Thibodeaux and Dax Hill in the first and Sam Howell or another QB at the top of the 2nd. I could also live with Kyle Hamilton at 1-1 and Ojabo at the 2nd 1st and then trade back from the top of round 2.

For some reason...I thought the Av's was a third....now I'm questioning my entire worldview

Every aspect of Zadina's game has improved immensely...except his scoring. Not sure how much value he has as the perception builds that he's at best a second or third line player. Veleno has the same issue. Does a lot of things well out there, but hasn't forced the issue in GR by generating enough offense. Looks like he'll get another shot up here with the Stephens injury...but can he do that from the 4th line? Re the draft...we have multiple 2nd and 3rd picks this year...if we play our way down to that 12-15 range, there's ammo to trade up a bit if there's a player they really love

I can walk into Little Caesar's knowing I will soon be leaving with a hot pizza that will cost me $5. Is it a great pizza...no. It's not horrible either and I will have enough left over for lunch the next day. I have no complaints...

Rasmussen has improved his skating...he needs to finish around the net better. He's had opportunities to bury a few and missed. That was supposed to be his calling card. He's made some nice passes, he's winning face offs at a higher than 50% rate and he has been decent defensively. He blocks a lot of shots and his reach has served him well on the PK

One thing I've noticed this year...if you put Larkin in between a couple of wings that have skill, vigor and pep...he looks like a true #1 center

There were some questions about Raymond's top end speed during his draft year...looked pretty fast to me on that rush in OT
