Much better effort by the Wings

Yes, I'm impatient. When 50% of the teams in a league make the playoffs, all you have to be is average to stumble into the playoffs. The Wings have been below average for too many years. I guess I didn't see a 7 or 8 year rebuild happening.

True, the Stafford trade jump started an impressive rebuild. Brad may have drafted us into a good team without the trade, who knows? But I don't think Stafford will stick around for a Rams rebuild, he'll probably be traded. Or retire....

It's been 8 years...

Maybe this has already been posted, if not, here's a funny Caleb Williams pass;

Wow. I could see 2 or 3 years without a playoff appearance but this is never ending. And the year we were close, Stevie sold instead of bought because he didn't consider us serious contenders. I love Yzerman but he wouldn't be the first great player that didn't deliver a winner for the Wings.

Fans have had patience with Yzerman. But pretty soon, enough is enough. Not making the playoffs in the NHL for this long is ridiculous. How long has it been, 7 years?

This makes me smile;

I saw in the Free Press this morning that the Rams may be headed for a rebuild. Ha-ha Matthew, you could have stayed in Detroit but you didn't wanna go thru a rebuild. It sure sucks being you, but at least you got a ring. Enjoy a few seasons of double digits losses.

This. AA++. Holmes built a core of this team that will be around for several years. We need an edge rusher more than we need future draft picks. Find out what we could offer the Raiders that they wouldn't turn down. 2 first round picks and a 2nd rounder? We'll survive and it may put us over the top. Or....hang onto the picks and draft more depth for our offensive line. It's just about the only part of the team that needs attention in the next couple of seasons. Free agents would fill that need, make the move and get Crosby in here, would he probably need a couple of weeks to learn our defense?

This is what he thinks of Detroit;

Yeah, just like I thought, it was both leg bones. Looking at a closeup of the play, you could kinda tell. Gross.

I read he endorsed Kennedy Jr. instead of Trump.

It means the consumer will pay the price. A new national tax. He will put us in a huge recession.

The man is a menace. Just a horrible liar who will lie about anything. He says he defeated ISIS in weeks....just a rambling liar who is so full of hate....

Warning; The media is now on a trade bandwagon. Saying the Lions OWE it to their long suffering fans. SMH...like a dog with a bone...

This makes the most sense. Trading draft picks isn't something Holmes has done, other than during the draft. But this team has talent all over the field that is under contract for a few years and is going to be here for the forseeable future. Holmes has already built a Super Bowl contender, now use draft stock to get us over the top. Personally, I don't see him doing it, it's just a pipe dream but I wouldn't be against it. I wanna win and I wanna win this season...

Also, no more pitching chaos; "- Obviously going to add pitching - Goal is to have a 5 man rotation, glad to know the "bulk inning" strategy is something they can go to if needed, but won't start next year with that strategy."

I agree, I doubt Brad would trade picks. We'll see...

I would be amazed it it wasn't the tibia and the fibula after seeing the way his leg bent. A compound fracture means it broke the skin, right? So very gross...

I want the Lions to go for it this season. Three 1sts and two 2nds? An overpay, I would say, but sure to get your guy.

Yeah, it's why I didn't link it here. Just way too disturbing. I did some strange body contortions when I saw it.

Well, the Lions are probably set for the next few years so we can afford the draft capital. I'm not sure if Holmes would give up multiple firsts though.

Do you think the Raiders would go for that? Our firsts we be late 1st rounders.

It looks like both bones. I saw the closeup of the play. His leg swung around and hit another Lion player. It's really gross.
