I don’t think so. But maybe I downplay it. I’m more bothered by how baseball handled it. These acts were so bad that management had to be suspended but in order to find out we had to give immunity to those who actually came up with it and did it. The ultimate in cover ups and having it both ways.

Several of those players may make the HOF.

Not all orgs are setup the same way in terms of power structure. There’s formal and informal.

I know someone who rags on him for wearing a sweatshirt over his jersey.

And I have think a lot of the media are butt hurt over access issues. Like they feel entitled becaise, you know, they are The NY Times and the world revolves around them. So they take out revenge.

I came across a tweet years ago that made a case for Lemon for the HOF. He didn't explicitly say he should get in but pointed out when you compare his offensive numbers to his peers at the time and all of that, he compares favorably with HOFers. His defense did a lot for him.

Did I miss something because twitter is acting like he's going to drop out.

When is the Stephanopolous interview? That along with some town halls can do a lot to stop this.

and it's further proof to their irrelevancy and why their only value is not one of advice and guidance, meaning someone you should listen to, but rather "do what they want or they will try to hurt you". They have no moral compass.

afternoon games during the week could cut into Leave it to Beaver at 2:30.

A friend of mine in the industry said he heard rumors that the Ilitchs will move the wings and tigers to channel 20. The Florida panthers made the move to the same company that owns channel 20 today. Comcast isn’t budging in his words. Have no idea if that means now or after the season.

Yes it was Walt. He posted here in 2021 for the last time, best I could tell.

A written cognitive test is entirely reasonable. Give them 3 hours, SAT style. speech and physical limitations being roadblocks to the job is actually discriminatory and ageism.

Like Miggy and his diet. He’d look ok coming out of camp but by August you could see the effect of post game munchies.

My masseuse who also teaches a bunch of yoga classes says that over stretching is a problem too. Of course the Tigers have probably a dozen staffers highly qualified to discuss these things so I’m not suggesting anything.

It might be more common than you think. My reason for saying that is during either COVID or a work stoppage it was mentioned that Ken Daniels, play by play guy for the red wings was an independent contractor. I could see it being easier for all involved. “Here, you get $2500 a day when working for us. You figure out the taxes. Payable to CM LLC”. Especially in a situation like sports where you have multiple jurisdictions and counties involved. I don’t think his on air performance had anything to do with their decision. Once you see those allegations surface you cut bait as fast as you can. And that’s one reason you to the independent route. Far less employment rules.

Honestly.... if Biden is too old and they have to invoke the 25th or he dies..... so what? We have Kamala as President, same advisors, etc. Nothing changes except now we have an incumbent running in 2028. The ony question to be answered is whether Biden can beat Trump. The question on whether he would be a better president or the country would be better off is not a question in any sense of the word. The people I see calling for him to drop out were ready to back people like Cruz or Rubio or Dem dinosaurs from the 90's or media pundits from washed up organizations.

innocent until proven guilty, blah blah blah.... but.... come on. He's a ****ing male Kennedy. They are hard wired. Always thought it was funny that Arnold got kicked out of the family for acting like a Kennedy.

They would have replaced our top trio of Norris, Boyd, and Fullmer.

I saw the tweet from the Detroit News Reporter back to her asking for her to reach out... he was a former member of this community. The article says she's not done that. This is why earlier on I wondered whether this person has anybody advising her on how to proceed with this. It seems odd that if it's being investigated, as the news article says it is, then why did she come out again over the weekend?

Was it ever believed that Presidents didn't have immunity for official acts? That's where I keep getting hung up... like you can't prosecute W because of the Iraq War, you can't prosecute Obama for Drone Strikes. You can't prosecute Clinton for hitting the wrong targets when going after Bin Laden.
