Tigers need a home run celebration. I propose a pair of crutches.

I think I suffered an oblique injury cheering just now.

I would like to report Trump as the antichrist.

Hasnt the guy they deported suffered enough?

I made the mistake of getting on one of the many Tigers related Facebook groups today and it makes me even more grateful for this forum given the low level of what passes for “discussion“ often times among the unwashed masses. And the problem is not so much the articles posted but the comment section. For a lot of people the solution to this team is the guillotine for everyone. There’s actually people who hate Verlander because they think he left the Tigers to sign a bigger contract elsewhere and they don’t know that he was traded. And people make these comments with a confident triumphalism that’s bewildering and almost makes me feel unclean. This place is Plato’s Academy compared to Facebook. It’s nice to be able to rub shoulders with all of you, or at least most of you. 😉

The same folks who believe that Drag Queens are contagious, yet diseases like COVID and Measles are not

Tigers are at 9W 5L, tied with Texas for the American League's best record. 1 1/2 game lead over Cleveland in the Central.

Interesting thoughts from Charlie Angus on the anniversary of Dietrich Bonhoeffer's execution

The Dodgers are now 9-4 and tied for 2nd in their division. The Tigers must have worn them down, just like so many teams were losing the week after playing the Lions.

I was hoping for…

I like this starting pitching staff much better than chaos; They have Cobb, Montero, etc as backup options if any injuries or ineffectiveness hit.

Milwaukee is throwing Tyler Alexander tomorrow...Hinch said that Greene is getting the day off to clear his head.

Franyerber has three hits today.

Dan Dickerson's call of the final out. 041225- final out vs twins.mp3

I think I just drank the Kool -Aid as this is beginning to look like a 95 win team to me.

People who think the regime is gonna stop at immigrants are whistling past the graveyard.

Olson has been a little erratic so far this year. But even tonight he would have worked out of most of it but for a goofball ump.

My favorite ML relief pitchers name...Blewett.

If only this mattered anymore.

Somebody once asked me why I don't gamble. "You know sports stats." I said "that's why I don't gamble with sports books."

Good to see him back.

You’re sounding like you think ANYONE in this administration, in particular the orange man, has an actual game plan…. Or is possibly able to win a game of chicken with China. I just don’t think either supposition is true.

James Madison in the Federalist Papers "47"

Good win and also illustrates why it'll be tough to justify paying Duren because Stew is the guy you want out there in the 4th against quality bigs. The Pistons likely don't win this game without Stewart's defense.

Bobby Witt should consider himself lucky to featured on the same graphic as McKinstry.

Yeah, they seem to be more interested in draft picks than service time manipulation. I like that.

Yes putting Vierling in CF. He was the main CF after Meadows was sent down last year. It's the position he's played the most innings at in his career.

I’d rather just call up Clark if we are arguing over Baddoo coming back or not

I'm not clear what Gretchan did wrong.

It clearly was manipulation.

I just wish the script writers weren't from The Office

On the broadcast the other day before Jake was injured, they were joking Javy wants to catch.

I call that an Aurelio Lopez Special.

Hurter with a 3 inning save. Good job!

No D in Keith

Mr McEaudeParfume.

Every team should publish a weekly Mentally Challenged List that lists the bonehead plays any of their players made that week

Margot is not aging gracefully; used to be a good defender and baserunner, but looks a lot older than 30

If Hillary makes a move, I doubt 50 agents could stop her. As I understand it from MAGA, she has the most confirmed kills of any living assassin.

Tanned. Rested. Ready.

Our portion sizes are too large and we're a consumer culture. There's also an element of not being wasteful and "eat everything on your plate" as a thing of honor instead of eating until you are full. "Starving kids in China" etc. My special needs son will eat anything you put in front of him, especially vegetables, but is good at stopping when he's full. But if you tell him to eatmore, he will. Plenty of times we've had to correct my mohter in law for trying to make him "eat all of his fries" No. He's fine. We have too many restaurants and other eateries and they have to compete with each other. Even when I was a kid 40 years ago eating out was a rare thing. I admit it myself, I get lunch on Tuesday from my favorite local deli, a breakfast on Friday morning from our bagel place. We go out as a family most Saturdays, and when I visit my mom on Sunday I get her Taco Bell because she's 95 and needs to eat something hearty and their power bowls are good for her. I walk across the street to KFC and get a chicken sandwich. Mobil apps are awesome. But now we have door dash and uber eats teaching young peole they can get anything they want whenever and it'll cost more but they've normalized that cost. So they're being wasteful and unhealthy for a barely warm meal from Chipotle.

My bottom line is, until someone gives me examples of how other countries are taking advantage of the US that should lead to worldwide tariffs in response, I won’t believe it’s actually happening.
