  1. Please don’t tell me Skubal is pitching hurt now …
  2. Is the game on Bally Sports locally? I believe it’s available outside Detroit only through Peacock paid, right?
  3. If you showed me two random photos of kids assembled in the auditorium of a high school, one from 2005 and one from 2022, I’m not sure whether I could tell you which is which. But two different years, and I could definitely tell you which is 1976 and which is 1993.
  4. Thank you for getting old. 😉
  5. In the red hat version, slaves were freed by their benevolent masters but they stayed on at their plantations without pay because they loved their masters so.
  6. This was a sitting congressman making a political speech in a church! George Carlin had the perfect thing to say about this exact circumstance: I don’t know how you feel about it but I have just about had it with these fucking church people. All of them. You know what I say we ought to do with these churches? Tax them! Tax these motherfuckers! If they’re so interested in politics and government policy and public policy, let them pay their admission price like everybody else!
  7. It’ll be interesting to see whether his strikeout stuff plays in Detroit. Will have to keep those walks down, but if he can continue keeping the ball in the ballpark, he can be serviceable at least.
  8. If he would have come up learning to elevate his swing plane like they do now, Lou would have had at least 25 homers during those first 531 games.
  9. Oh. My. GOD!!!!!!
  10. Canada Day vs Fourth of July, $100
  11. If he could rise form the grave, locate you, and give you a good talking to, he would.
  12. Oh my god, it’s true.
  13. I was thinking football, specifically. One practical barrier I can think of that’s unique to basketball versus football is that there are multiple games a week, and the amount of travel needed to pull that off for a truly national premier league for college basketball would be fairly impractical.
  14. Even halfway into a season, has there ever been a team whose position player WAR leader has. WRC+ as low as 50? Because not only is that the case for us, he is actually the leader by half a win!
  15. A year from today.
  16. I posted on the old board some years ago that if these people were going to be pro-life, they needed to be pro-life all the way, with no exceptions for rape, incest, or life of the mother, or else their entire basis for belief is full of shit. Thing is, at the time, I threw in life of the mother just to be comically extreme. Literally no one advocated fetus over mother at the time. I thought I was going beyond the pale to demonstrate the ridiculousness of it all. Never underestimate …
  17. I agree, this is practically obvious on its face. But if it ever had a ghost of a chance of working in only one instance, I think college football could be that instance. They wanna make money, sure, but they also don’t have quite the same existential profit imperative that professional sports demand.
  18. First pitch 4-3. Crap.
  19. And now the tying run is on base. Get ‘em in! These are the damn Royals, after all!
  20. Tying run to the plate in the ninth. Gotta like seeing that.
  21. Not many, but then, recruits with a choice generally go to the top schools on their list anyway, so the whole thing probably wouldn’t be much different than it is now.
  22. Not only did I not say this would be easy, I said in so many words that there are probably dozens of barriers preventing this from happening. This was just a fun thing I posted because I spent a couple hours being obsessed by the idea. It sounded neat in the moment, I fleshed it out a little bit, and I posted about it. If MSU were to get relegated to Tier 3, they would deserve not being able to play Michigan.
