You’re right. It seems he’s one guy on his own without a network of cohorts that could help him go into hiding. He went to a lot of trouble and planned things pretty well, but I don’t think he ever really expected to get away so once he was on the lam he had nowhere to go. He’s not as ambitious as DB Cooper when it comes to getting away, since he was more interested in making his point.

Only adjacent to baseball, and I’m only partially watching the Boise State UNLV game and a voice was sort of familiar and of course it turned out to be Jason.

Thanks. I come here exactly for posts like this.

I suppose there are statistics out there justifiably contending Comerica Park isn’t that bad of a hitter‘s ballpark, but I don’t know if hitters themselves feel that way and are tripping over themselves to come here. Nick certainly blossomed when he left here. of course that’s a small sample size. I’m not going all Lynn Henning in on this, but I think this place might be a tough sell for a hitter, even with changes made to the park. You’d really have to be all in on “the idea of the Tigers“ and the future and while that might work for us, I don’t know how that plays to hitters themselves. I could easily be wrong about this because I am clearly a moran.

It’s kind of interesting that two major league teams will be playing in minor league stadiums in 2025.

Congratulations to the 2025 World Series champion Sacramento Athletics.

I’m thinking the inclusion of something reminiscent of “Death Race 2000“ should be included during the seventh inning stretch just for entertainment purposes.

His swing is really a thing of beauty to behold. The way the force rises up from his feet and legs and spins around into that big Buddha belly of his then flows down his arms and concentrates into the barrel of the bat where the ball meets the sweet spot of the bat just perfectly. It’s just breathtaking to witness.

Maybe the golden at bat should be your best hitter, and you give them an aluminum bat or maybe one made out of something SpaceX has created. Whee! ‘Merica!

All that is solid melts into air, all that is holy is profaned,

No other posts in six hours? I guess this means our Black Friday is pretty meager.

That wasn’t pretty. But it counts.

I guess a win is a win is a win but after suffering through so many thanksgivings, an emphatic blowout in terms of scoring and not just offensive yards would be nice. There’s the old saying “God doesn’t give with both hands.” We’ll end up with a win in all likelihood, but it won’t be a dream win.

I never get what I want. Life is unfair.

I would like to see the Bears lose 20 yards in this possession so they would be in the negative for offensive yards not because it means anything but because I like revenge.

I used to really enjoy Fake Jim Leland. It was really a great nod and a wink insider sort of account. Only enthusiasts could ever really get it and appreciate it. I’m still curious as to who it could’ve been.

The Tigers reached deals with McKinstry, Ibáñez? Thank God! I can sleep soundly tonight. Now I know what Steve Martin’s character in The Jerk felt when he looked in the phonebook and realized his name was in print. We’re going places!

So I guess Skubal winning the Cy Young isn’t a big deal to much of anyone. This is a tough audience. So, where do we meet to throw snowballs at children? 😉

Well, this certainly puts a hex on it.

I just got back from a walk with my friend. Is anything good happening?

I looked it up and we don’t know who won the Cy Young until November 20.

The Jersey swap at the end of the game was pretty cool.

It turns out that’s what it was. A man was holding a woman hostage with a knife to her throat the entire time. For something like 90 minutes, I can’t imagine how awful that was for her. Finally, he released her then I guess he bolted from the door with the knife, committing suicide by cop, and they obliged and he died at the hospital. but I’m glad the Lions won. It’s salvages the day.
