So, Keith at 3B is out in your scenario?

I don't mind losing out on the trade to someone else—I always assume guys are working multiple channels on trades—I just hate when I make an offer, or a request for them to look my system over for possibilities, and they just ignore me. At least tell me, sorry, you don't have the kinds of players I need. That, I would totally understand, and appreciate. No need treat the other guy like an asshole during the process.

It's true that people who have been paying attention and as a result don't like Trump will probably be voting on democracy. Red Hats are being told that democracy is at stake and Joe Biden will destroy it if he's re-elected, so in that sense, they too are voting on "democracy".

The Amboy Dukes also did a pretty good rocked-up version of “Maybelline”, excepting that self-indulgent feedback solo in the middle.

As we all know, it has everything to do with the words they say and nothing to do with the things they do. For proof of that, just remember that during the pre-insurrection rally Trump used the word “peacefully” as a punchline, and that’s the word all the red hats are leaning into to “prove” it was a peaceful gathering on their part.

Is there a reason for this? I just lightly googled and didn't come up with anything.

This song would work well over the closing credits of an 80s light comedy.

You guys who are in OOTP leagues have probably seen plenty of this: one of the other owners will announce that they need to move one of their big league regulars for prospects, you make an opening offer, they say “nope”, and then they ghost you, even after you ask them whether they want to make a counter. Some guys treat trades as a one-shot best-offer-only deal rather than a negotiation, and some even act indignant with you after indicating your offer doesn’t measure up for them. Then they wonder why nobody wants to trade with them.

That’s the way it looks on January 30, anyway, although if there’s one thing that Harris is teaching us, it’s that the Tigers are now capable of zagging after years of predictably zigging. The third base picture might look very different come March. Or not. BTW, I don’t think JHM in left field is entirely out of the question, regardless of the Akil Baddoo signing.

Bold prediction: I don’t think the Tigers will get off to a terrible start.

I think the fans will start coming back this year, and the Lions good season might even help a little.

Yeah, he's super hot.

I think our media is suppressing that.

No wonder this kid rakes at the plate. There’s nothing wrong with his eyes.

I do expect us to address that clear need tho

As you said: the ride up is the most special. It's morning in Detroit.

"Born and raised not in Detro-iiiiit ..."

Losing the way we "lost" to Dallas.

Even if they fail to get the two corners they need? I mean, I don't expect them to sit on their hands this spring, but if they go into next season in the bottom quintile in secondary again, would you still expect that?

I agree Ichiro is not an inner-circle Hall of Famer based on his numbers, but he is an inner-circle Hall of Famer based on his level of fame. I'd be surprised to see him get a lower percentage of the vote than Adrian Beltre. He might even get 99%. That's looking just at his MLB numbers, of course. Technically, voters are not allowed to take his NPB numbers into consideration. But they will. Plus, he was so much fun to watch, and he was a great interview.

If Max Clark does what he is expected to do, he will probably have to get one of these eventually, too.

Holy Toledo! We’ve never done a deal like this before.

Given that New York was on the winning side of the War About Slaves, I’d say they have every right to remove a statue on their territory of a slaveholder whose philosophy about the sanctity of states’ rights likely helped foment the war in the first place.

I don’t see how you got that out of what I wrote. All I’m saying bottom line is that I don’t see nearly the same level of 10/7 truther that I see of 1/6 truther. Maybe we just travel in different circles.
