Sadly, I'm one of the suckers paying for the Bally's app right now. As much as I despise paying $20 a month (minus my Xfinity credit) for their crappy app that crashes (often), I enjoy watching the Tigers in the summer and was not willing to go without. That said, once the baseball season ends that will be it for me. I also enjoy watching the Pistons, but not enough (right now) to pay to additional for it. They should be paying me...

I'm sorry, but I'm not the programmer behind this software. If Threads is so great, I'm sure Invision Community will consider it for inclusion in a future software update.

Sorry about the HUGE banner ad running at the top of the forum today. This is apparently an experiment that Google decided to run... I believe I have stopped this experiment, so hopefully it will stop showing soon. Ads are a necessary evil to help pay the bills, but there has to be a happy medium. This new ad is a bit much with everything else that is already running. Sorry...

Are we not allowed to have nice things anymore?

Their RSS Feeds are not working anymore. Not sure if this is a temporary issue, or if they have eliminated them.

We tried a donation type system years ago and it was a bit of nightmare on my end... I know the ads can be somewhat intrusive at times, but they do help cover the costs of running this site, especially with these new vignette ads. Unfortunately running a website like this isn't free (damn!). Yes, it is a minor inconvenience and I do believe that most of the users here understand that. Personally I'd love to have no ads running on here, but it is much less stress on me knowing that when software and server bills come due, that I have revenue to fall back on to help cover the expense.

They are called Vignette ads. Its a new ad format that is becoming more common on websites. Sorry, but they help pay for the expense of running this website. From Google Adsense: Vignette ads are full-screen ads that appear between page loads. Vignettes are displayed when the user leaves a page, rather than when they arrive on one, so the user doesn’t have to wait for them to load. We (Google) limit the number of vignettes per user to maintain a good user experience.

Good game. I watched most of the second half….how many of these guys are returnees from last years team? Seem like at least a few names were familiar.

I'll be in Arizona next week for their opening day on Thursday. Many people dislike that stadium, but I don't have any issues with it. I've been there a few times now and have enjoyed my visits, with the ballpark roof open and closed.

I was there for opening day in 2015 against the Orioles. 31,042 in attendance. I hate that ballpark... Complete dump.

Welcome Jimbo!

You need to calm the F down....

Hmmm... Stats are similar to DJ Chark over the past 5 years. Chark has more upside, but more injury risk.
