Now THAT was a magic catch!

Were the throw a half a foot shorter, St Brown would have gone to the house.

There Is some value in going to a chunk play third and short, keeps defenses honest. Relatively harmless in the first quarter.

That was a statement drive right there.

Here is my view for the Lions game tonight. And I found a bunch of Lions fans to watch it with!

LFGL!

Welcome to Planet Earth. 😉😁

The headline was the important part, at least until I saw the Passan article.

If Sasaki does not choose the Padres, he will have revealed his agent and himself as being completely full of **** about wanting to avoid humongous markets.

Whoops, completely missed this last night.

lol college students and demonrat lawbreakers in congress are the real antisemites

Yes, this is true, and I was assuming broadcast networks. The recent show closest to the All in the Family aesthetic I can think of I think of is the Carmichael Show, which ran on NBC for a couple years in the mid-2010s. Fantastic show that I believe should have gotten more attention at the time. Perhaps had they waited a few years until Trump, it would have. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Carmichael_Show

The only potential problem with that is that it implies that Biden acknowledges the committee engaged in criminal behavior, and RWM will run wild with that.

Given who chooses the "wrong people" to run the state in the first place, it looks like their explicit intent is to punish the ordinary citizens of California.

I'm guessing this effectively ends our pursuit of Sasaki.

Agree, although I would add I care less about “how did they get him for that little?” than “how did they get him for that few?”

I agree—Jim Leyland and Dusty Baker would never share any negative impressions of Justin Verlander with us. I would have been OK with signing him for 1/15, and I said so prior to his going to the Giants. If Harris thought he was a good fit and Verlander thought this the Tigers were a good fit, he probably would have, and i would have liked that. But he didn’t sign with us, for whatever reason, and I don’t rue that even a little. Now he’s signed with a team with a GM whom he faced on the field, which based on his press conference, seems important to him. Mazel tov, Justin, best of everything to you.

Yes, and not only this—they have not extended Vlad. Can you imagine being a big-time free agent committing to years in Toronto and watching Vlad sign with the Yankees or Red Sox next winter?

Hey, man, they have to keep listeners engaged satisfy advertisers. 😏

We actually won a playoff series last year not only without making any acquisitions, but by selling off a reliable pitcher in the middle of a great year. Was that super lucky and we could never do it that way again? Maybe. But I’m encouraged that we have numerous players still on the upswing and should improve this year, some perhaps dramatically, instead of over-the-hill veterans having one last hurrah. I’m OK if Harris doesn’t sign Bregman or Santander or Alonso. I don’t think he needs to spend this offseason as though the money is burning a hole in his pocket. Although I could be talked into a couple years of Nick Pivetta.

Agree, I’m sure you would agree that doesn’t mean the team should make roster decisions based on fan nostalgia. You’re perfectly right as a fan to be disappointed that JV won’t end his career here in a Tigers uniform. I liked him when he was here, too. But I also like that Harris is leading us from that era, which is long, long over, into a new one led by today’s and tomorrow’s stars, not yesterday’s stars. If I had to guess what one big consideration would be, based on everything I’ve read about JV over the years, it’s that Harris would not want a player like him coming into and acting like a huge ****ing prima donna in our carefully-constructed young clubhouse—especially a guy who’s old, hurt, and not pitching even halfway decently.

We get the Commanders on six days rest. That’s a bit of a break.

I think “All in the Family” might not get on TV today because it was on 50+ years ago. Its influence on our culture helped spur the decades-long backlash against the artistic freedoms it pioneered.

Maybe Shell should sponsor Semiquincentnennial Minutes on CBS.

Did she hear it from MAGA media? It sounds like the kind of thing that might have started there.
