  1. Quite an offensive performance. I don't think that Kerry Carpenter is above getting a demotion if he keeps flailing and guys at Toledo keep hitting. I think Perez got off to a hot start. I think KC will work it out, but maybe he should work it out on the Tony Packo's diet. I don't see them graduating Max Clark just yet, even though he seems to be adjuting very quickly. His OBP is .488. Ignore BA. BA is almost pointless. Jace Jung who had a great spring is only hitting .217 but is OBP is quite good at .357. I don't know who you'd demote to make room for hm, but looking at some of the Tigers ABs in this 4-game losing streak have been downright deflating. Stop trying to hit the ball 500 feet with every swing. We need guys that get on base. I don't care how they do it. Maybe coming to Comerica, which isn't a home run park will temper that a bit and they'll stop swinging like that. It really bothers me that McGonigle's at bats are so much more advanced than our veteran players. I am glad that Colt Keith is starting the season well. He was so bad in April his first two years. Take April out of it for his career and he's .278/.356/.791. That's a very solid bat there.
  2. I believe the Pistons magic number is down to 1 to clinch the East, is it not?
  3. Gee, I remember another pulled hamstring from a Laker. If you were around then, I'm sure you do too.
  4. HAPPY NEW YEAR Might be the best Opening Day weather in a long time
  5. The amount of money Kirk Cousins and gotten from the Sheild is absolutely incredible. I admire him for pulling it off.
  6. Aren't you basically vacuuming up your shyte? That's about the only way that could work, right?
  7. Yep, with all the ABS overturns and calls like this.............We all thought Angel Hernandez was the worst ump, but I had heard and read plenty of people saying Bucknor is worse. Is he sick? To me it looks like he's lost weight, he does not look well. Maybe he had bulkier padding in the past. I think Umpires should have to justify their jobs by their performance. Stop treating them like Supreme Court Justices.
  8. 3 competent hitters out of the whole team (and a decent Base On Balls guy). And the fact that a 21-year old rookie, who never played above AA ball is BY FAR your best hitter is disturbing. Yeah, I know it's early, blah blah blah, but this is just a continuation of last September. Greene is a ****ing windmill. Congraulations on repeating as the K-King. I have no doubt that's coming. Torkelson isn't anywhere close to being a 1-1, Carpenter looks foolish and Javy has revered back to his 2023/2024 self. They'd be 0-6 if it wasn't for K-Mac and Keith and a Padres Opening Day starter that pitched like he had Vertigo. It's too early in the season to be this angry. And it's cold outside today. Freaking 38 degrees when it was 70 yesterday. Today sucks. Hey Tigers, are you getting intensity tips from the Red Wings?
  9. Pistons are getting NO respect. They keep winning without Cade and they took OKC to OT on the road without Cade and Duren. I hope this motivates them
  10. It was the 8th inning. They were up 5-1. I went to bed. WHAT THE **** HAPPENED?
  11. Blow it up. Just blow it all up. Start over. Again.
  12. Oh for the love of all that's Holy. JV was terrible. Paul Skenes was worse. Anyone giving up on Skenesy? No JV is 43. He's going to look it at times. He might need a longer ramp. The team's fortune are not riding on starer #4 or 5. The fortunes are riding on the hope that the rookie isn't your best hitter (by a mile) 14 Ks yesterday. Inexcusable. To call JV a flop based on one start is beyond ridiculous. I'm hungry, let's get a taco.
  13. Each Day We Work In Silence. Each Day We Work in Darkness But the Silence is too loud The Darkness is too bright. What do you go home to?
  14. found Jesus and then ignored everything Jesus taught about loving your fellow man - even if they "sin", See you at C-Pac, Ivey.
  15. Older favorites for me are St. Elsewhere - first hospital show where they didn't save the patient every week, in fact if you were a patient in season one, you're in real trouble. I liked Hill Street Blues back in the day because the cops weren't always the good guys. Homicide: Life On The Street was a step above Hill Street Blues. Then, of course, there was The Wire, which tried to show the point of view of some bad people who had no other real opportunities in life. I liked Lost until it lost itself and got stupid. I think a smart way of doing TV now is to set a boundry and stay with it. We're doing five seasons - even if we're super huge, just five seasons and that's going to be the story arc. Lost would have been amazing as a 3-season show, but it went on for 6 and they were throwing WAY too many things into the show to fill that 6 seasons. Twin Peaks would have been maybe the best show of all time if it ended with 1 season. We were never supposed to know who killed Laura Palmer. But the network forced Lynch into revealing it. He regretted it immediately and I think he intentionally made the show so weird that only diehards would stay with it. Can you imagine how much more legendary that show would have been if they never revealed the killer? I think it was supposed to end with Agent Cooper leaving town to investigate the death of another girl in another small town.
  16. Yep, he's gonna be compared to K-Mac.............who might come down to earth at some point, by the way. But yeah, why can't you be like Kevin. Max Clark is now Jan Brady................"KEVIN, KEVIN, KEVIN !" Give him some time..... I'm more concerned that he reminds me of Todd from Breaking Bad - the most disturbing character in that universe.
  17. It's gotta be some team rule - don't use this in certain times. It's got to be.
  18. That is two Non-strikes. WTF, Tigers. USE THE F-ING ABS !!!!!!!!!
  19. Okay, Good Jack or Bad Jack ?
  20. Have the players been told to never use ABS early in the game - Because I saw that was not a strike in real time and if my blind arse can see it...........
  21. Torres is slower than I thought
  22. Come on Tork, get on base so K-Mac can have RISP and be clutch again
