The comeback player of the year for one of the best walk off comebacks of the year!

It’s great and I just listened to it but unfortunately can’t upload it at moment as I am out

So what's the early betting line on voters inducting Rose at the first opportunity? Or the over-under on how many votes he'll get? Was getting hard for MLB to resist re-instatement now that they've gone full hog into sports betting.

I thought sure taking the Oilers to Game 7 of the SCF would have been riding off into the sunset moment. How much desire can the guy still have for a new challenge at the age of 69.

A woman, who happens to be an alum of my daughter's former high school, made a documentary Finding Big Country to see what Reeves is up to these days. Sounds like a pretty good guy, even if he was dismal as the franchise's first ever pick. He's retired to a farm somewhere in Oklahoma I believe. The real subject of Vancouver fans' ire to this day is Steve Francis who slagged the city and refused to play here when drafted #2 overall, and Michael Heisley who moved them to Memphis. Vancouver wasn't really meant to have an NBA team though anyways, it seemed to have happened by accident in the first place. https://findingbigcountry.com/ https://findingbigcountry.com/we-the-west/

Has this been posted already? Lions won’t be in the opener vs Philly.

In other sports news today. Florida Panthers 2 Toronto Maple Leafs 0.

Going into the weekend, I was becoming resigned to the fact the Leafs would win the Cup. I was going to savour the last few weeks of the Leafs being lifetime losers before everything changed. Kind of how I felt last summer knowing our daughter would be leaving for college in the fall. Now? Game on.

Teams don't get shut out on Mother's Day unless they hate their moms.

That's exactly what Benedetti called him just now.

I got a kick in a nerdy way how yesterday Leo spoke about the importance and challenges of Artificial Intelligence. And how part of the reason he chose the name Leo was because Leo XIII had written an encyclical about the Industrial Revolution and that we may be on the verge of an AI revolution. My capstone paper which I finished just 3 weeks ago was on “The Ethics of Artificial Intelligence in Banking & Accounting from a Catholic Social Teaching Perspective” and it included several pages on Leo XIII’s Rerum Novarum about human dignity and the meaning of work. I should send my paper to him, perhaps there is room for a Tigers fan on the fringes of the Vatican.

Skinner was a clown on this but losing but some of the worst team defense you will ever see. Bringing it into the zone 1 on 4 with 7 seconds to go shouldn’t be dangerous for you.

Brutal reviews for the new album, Pink Elephant. This is a band that could do no wrong between 2004 (Funeral) and 2013 (Reflektor).

Guardians and Royals both win. They’re getting on my nerves.

The 1993 team that finished 85-77 had the best record in the American League in June 15. Two NL teams were ahead of them though.

Is the 3.0 game division lead the Tigers now have over the Guardians and the Royals the largest the Tigers have had this season? Update: I’ve checked Baseball Reference. It is. They had got it up to 2.5 games a few times

For sure. It's a problem that's not getting better. I drifted from the Church for a good 15 years because Mass wasn't doing anything for me (well that plus a family friend, a Vatican-based monsignor, was convicted of heinous child sex abuse). Of course I know the heart of the Catholic Mass is the Eucharist. But really, the only three things to look forward to when I was a kid and still as an adult were: a) music; b) homily; and c) food/social afterwards. For the homily, many priests put a lot of time into every week but lack public speaking skills. Simple Toastmaster things like telling the congregation at the beginning the 4 points he's going to make and how long it's going to take, so we can pace ourselves, rather than have him just drone on and on. Maybe a bullet point outline could be put in the bulletin or up on the screens that are sometimes used now. This has become an even more pressing issue as accents of foreign priests may be hard to understand and they tend to have longer sermons. 7-10 minutes should be plenty. Foreign priests often were trained in regions where "clericalism" still is too strong and the priest calls the shots with little input from the people in the pews. I know many long-time Catholics who get more out of online podcasts by "popular" priests like Bishop Robert Barron or Father Mike Schmitz than they do from anything they've heard in their own church. Incidentally, I've been married to a non-religious wife for 33 years and I didn't come back to Catholicism until my father's funeral 12 years ago. It was the rituals that first drew me back - the faith would eventually follow and then later my interest in theology.

Strikeout on the next batter and Dan D still hasn't let me know whether there are runners on 1st and 2nd or runners on 1st and 3rd after the play at the plate.

Look up, look waaaaaay up.

The 2025 Tigers and 2006 Tigers were both 25-13 after 38 games. The 1968 Tigers were 24-14. The 1984 Tigers were 33-5. The 2003 Tigers were 9-29.
