  1. So...what part of history do you prefer? Scott Harris made outstanding trades that turned us into a playoff team? Or he made screwd free agents signing that got us over the top? Whatever, he didn't do enough, obviously.
  2. I saw an article in Wired magazine a few years ago that gave reasons why officials give home teams calls, not unfairly but subconsciously. It feels good to them having people cheering for them. Just...human nature.
  3. That's on St Brown. It was very catchable.
  4. Reality....this Lions team is really, really good. No matter the outcome of any given game.
  5. I agree but it was a chance to help KC. We can put that dog to bed.
  6. Hutch is a freakin' beast. Strip sack machine
  7. OK...officials didn't call Harper for PI. Prolly could have.
  8. True. But then we need to look at what he did last off-season with a playoff team. Other than Torres falling into our lap, in a position that wasn't a glaring need, he did very little. Got played by Boras in the Bregman deal, using our offer to shop him around. Not a good sign if he wants to sign future Boras agents.
  9. All kinds of people want to defend Scott Harris. And I say the Tigers could have gone deeper in the playoffs, last year and this year, with a few tweaks at the trade deadline. Forget the 15 million dollars he wasted on Cobb, but also look at the major players on this team. With the exception of McKinstry and Torres,who did Scott acquire? Most of these guys are Avila's guys. He hung onto many prospects that he promised "would help this season." It was more his inability to get any deals done, other than for guys who helped us lose several games.
  10. They said it wasn't reviewed. Officials just had a meeting.
  11. Wasn't reviewed. Officials got together...
  12. The KC speed has me a bit worried. And I don't understand why they struggle in the red zone.
  13. I don't think Scott Harris is a smart GM. Either his hands are tied on increasing payroll or he's terrified of giving up young players for proven and established players. He did a really good job rebuilding our farm system but trades and free agency are also part of his job. And in those 2 parts, he's failed. But yeah, playing other GM's against each other won't work. Especially against a more experienced guy like DD.
  14. This is beyond what Scott Harris is capable of. At least, in the past. He doesn't make blockbuster trades. And if (when) he trades Skubal, it will probably be for young, cost controlled prospects. I'm not sure he would be allowed to double our payroll. A smart GM would let it be known that an NL team is interested, use a bidding war to get some team to overpay. It wouldn't surprise me if the Tigers keep Skubal next season and just take a comp pick.
  15. The Tampa home game and LA road game will be, could be, tough. But every time I underestimate the Lions, they surprise me. Just...go ahead and win them all. Impress me...😅😅
  16. Watching the TV game offerings today; Denver-Jets...Dallas-Carolina....Pittsburgh-Cleveland...proves one thing for sure. There are many really bad football teams out there. I'm glad our team is elite. 😅
  17. Give me ownership of the Tigers and a billion dollars and I would spend so much, it would make your head spin. No salary cap? Fine, I would go all in. It's only...money.
  18. More gold logic from that clown;
  19. My post just....disappeared. Now it shows up....huh.
  20. Denver beat Philly but today they looked like a lottery team. Yes, good defense but their offense looked horrible. That's good for the Lions chances at Philadelphia. Denver played very, very conservative. Pretty boring football.
  21. I also read a comment that called for hats and shirts to say *** The Game Recap....lmao
