They also weren't as good. I'm not saying that because they didn't win a WS, but just in terms of record. They never had home field advantage in their playoff years except for the 2006 WS, which they got because of the ASG. They sort of stumbled into the playoffs in 2012, they were tied with Chicago with about a week left and they fell off a cliff. Teams like Oakland and Baltimore had better records during the run. But I did enjoy the recent run more because I was only 10 during the summer of 84 and most of the games were not on TV and I was busy playing with my friends. The atmosphere and reach of the recent era was larger. Nothing beat a weekend night at Comerica Park when they were riding high.... it was a party.

I recall at the time last week that there was a very specific reason they did it at that time but dont remember what it was. Either weather or light related.

No they are not. I think this is an over reaction. I don't see it as much differen than having your birthday party at McDonald's. Kids get attached to brands. You ever work at a fast food place back when they made us wear hats? Ever put a had on a 7 year old kid and see their face light up? "I work at KFC now!!!!" The kids aren't cooking food or taking orders. Representatives for the brand did say, however, that campers are not doing the work of team members as part of this program, adding that Chick-fil-A employees serving as counselors will not engage in their usual tasks during camp and will instead do activities with campers. This is not the first time the chain has hosted a summer camp. A Houston-area Chick-fil-A started its still-running experience six years ago with activities like bingo and trivia.

Maroun's pockets run very deep. It will be interesting how the traffic plays out. The reason he owns his bridge is because he owns his trucking companies so he gets that revenue. The new bridge on the canadian side is linked right up with the 401, that was the point, keep them out of downtown. Will that family send their trucks to the new bridge? Should save about 25-30 minutes I would think. I can't wait to run across it.

It’s fine to question it. But some act like Chris Ilitch doesn’t want to spend money and Scott Harris is timid. I’m not saying you think that but to those who do I offer up Colt Keith.

Until the other team stops swinging at pitches then pour it on.

Especially when in the previous page people wondered why the org signed Colt Keith. So is Chris Ilitch afraid to spend money and “Scotty boy” as some on twitter call him afraid to make bold moves or not? Because I can’t keep up with the narratives that just come out of peoples butts.

I know of several racist MAGA types that were very anti Kwame… so… not sure on that appeal. And I don’t know he has much sway in the black community either.

I see it more as he was a useful idiot to them and now his use is diminished. As said before, he had some valuable people around him, like the Treasury Secretary.

I'm warming up to @Edman85's theory that Trump being tied to his trial in NY helped him as it kept him busy and away from events like this.

Waving our “Scott Harris and AJ Hinch are not the problem” signs.

Tigers are winning so nobody's posting.

judging relievers on ERA?

People here think Harris shoud figure out a way to trade our crap for good players though.... I'm just following along.

but Harris should be able to trade him for a young middle of the order SS with great defense.

They did it to try to put out the fire for the election, knowing more cases are coming their way. This was an easy one for them.

yeah they always call me the day after the bill is due. F them. It takes me a matter of seconds to pay on the app. Outfits that don't give you a reminder are scum.

I was thinking more about you not being alone, I think we're in the same boat. So maybe we're in the minority. I had this team pegged at a "If things go well they could win 85-87 games" Things aren't going well enough to justify that. I'm not surprised by that. I am surprised by some hitting woes but I am also surprised by the starting pitching, even Skubal. That's baseball.

That's a name I haven't heard in 20 years. I read several of his books, including the title here, back in the day.

I will see your banning women pastors and raise you a banning IVF. These people have lost their minds.

I saw video of that. He ran on the field and did a backflip right in front of security. I have no issue with him being tased. You run on the field you put people in danger. Any risk is something he accepted by trespassing. He got what he deserved.

I've yet to see anybody outside of the media, and Trey Gowdy on Fox, question this prosecution.
