  1. If your car breaks down on Rotunda or the Southfield service drive next to the practice facility, Lions security will be out there checking on you to make sure you're not spying for the Vikings or Packers. They'll get there a lot faster than a tow truck or police will. It reminds me of Dominos Farms. The Men In Black suits would materialize out of thin air to ask your business. It was so freaking weird. "I'm here for Monahan......."
  2. Bobby, no, Don't do that to yourself. You go from Woody to Shad? No. You deserve better.
  3. He knew when to hit 44 home runs.
  4. Robert Saleh for DC ?
  5. Some of the dumbest PEOPLE ON EVERYTHING on earth post about EVERYTHING on Twitter. Fixed it for ya. Some of them went to Antarctica - saw the 24 hour Sun with their own eyes and still think the earth is flat. People like that are growing in number. Twitter/Facebook/YouTube is why there are so many Sovereign Citizens now - and those numbers are growing. I declare that I have a religion that prohibits me from paying taxes or utilities. If DTE cuts my power off they are violating my rights.
  6. It's because it was a playoff game and Teddy had experience.
  7. There will never be a salary cap in baseball. The players union will shut the sport down forever before ever caving on that. They had no shame in getting a World Series cancelled, in fact they were proud of it.
  8. Ndamukong Suh of the Lions drove a nice car that he hit some guy with (Exit ramp from Southfield to Rotunda) and then fled to the Lions practice facility where Lions security intervened and called the cops who then threatened to arrest the victim of the hit and run. Of course, nothing ever happened to Suh.
  9. I started my current job on May 9, 2023 and I have not taken 2 consecutive days off since then. I do some work from home during the weekend. We're pretty short staffed so I really can't. But I have not taken a week off at all. Even when I had Covid in Oc........sorry, ROCKtober 2023, I did not take a day off, I worked from home for 3 weeks. Really only felt terrible for one day, the rest was like a bad cold. I probably shouldn't do this. I could just hit a wall. But the thought of not having goals to reach or distractions to fill my attention is downright scary to me. Scarier than the prospect of having my Social Security taken away. I am a pretty depressed person and I need things to focus on. I could happily live pretty frugally. I don't care about having the biggest and best things. My car is 10 years old now. It runs fine, as cool as an electric microbus would be, I don't really need it. It's the unfilled time that's so scary. That's it - retire and then LIVE in a VW microbus and travel around, do the Major and Minor League stadium tour. Get a sticker from every major and minor league team and put them all over the microbus. The Baseball Bus !
  10. Congrats. I love my job, so right now I can't imagine retiring. I'm 60, so I guess I will have to start thinking about it, but I don't know that I could stand it. What would I do with myself? I would be totally lost. I'm very work-driven now. My hobby and my job are basically the same. My dad couldn't stand it. He went and got part time jobs moving cars around for Enterprise. I don't even think he cared about getting paid - he just needed a goal. How will you fill the hours?
  11. Best trade in sports history? Both teams got what they wanted. Lions got a fresh start and man has Brad Holmes taken advantage of it. I'm not giving up on Goff. Look at how great Lamar is and he can't get to the Super Bowl either. I do think it'll happen at some point in the next 2 seasons for the Lions. They may not got 15-2 again, but just get into the playoffs...........I think the Lions are better suited as a bit of an underdog anyway -- fits their personality. Please develop a good pass rush beyond just 1 guy.
  12. That was a stupid play, but if it had worked we'd be marveling at the genius of it. That was how they got to 15-2, doing crazy stuff like that. Why change? It just didn't work this time.
  13. Team loss. A lot went wrong. Ben was just part of it. It was the defense more than anything. When you score 31 points in a playoff game, even with 5 turnovers, you should win the game. The defense had been teetering on disaster for several weeks and the team was able to overcome it because they played inept QBs. But when they played QBs who were cool under pressure, they folded. They could only hold so long with half the defense being backups. Now, that's not really an excuse. The failure, at it's core, is that their pass rush was a one-man endeavor and that guy went down in the Dallas game. Smith was not nearly the factor we'd hoped he'd be. They have to solve that. That's their offseason. If they can solve that and hopefully get health with the D-Line, the Secondary would look a lot better. No secondary is going to hold for over 5/6 seconds a play.
  14. I feel like they are just better when people doubt them. Kind of like Dantonio's Michigan State teams.
