  1. The way a bum like Chris Paddack looked the Tigers are on watch to get no-hit today. This guy's name might be Junk, but he's better than Paddack.
  2. Don't need HRs from him. Need getting on base consistently. My theory is Rookie Ball is a one story house A ball is two story bungalow AA ball is a 5-story walk up AAA ball is a 5-story walk up with a raised basement, only slighty up from AA because a lot of guys who have been to the show are in AAA The Majors is a 30-story skyscraper. It's by far the biggest jump in quality, so thinking he's going to repeat this at the MLB level is a bit silly, but they need a spark of some kind. I am sure there are a few very specific things they look at with each player and we don't know what those things are and the stats don't always tell that story. But Clark is challenging the Tigers right now. And the Tigers are like junk food. Empty calories. Yeah, they may rank well in offensive categories, but they are meaningless because they can't score runs. I mean, 2 runs off of Chris ****ing Paddock? That's disgraceful. Don't care how many hits they had last night - they didn't string many together and they won the game on a "how the hell did he pull that pitch?" home run. The win was nice, but not very encouraging. Like they accidentally ran into one.
  3. Everytime you watch Breaking Bad and Walter says JESSE angrily, you're cat is going to wonder what the TV's problem is.
  4. Okay, Tigers. It's time to start acting like you actually want to play baseball. Stop this nonsense. Wake up. You are embarassing the city, the team and yourselves. Unless what we saw in September last year is the REAL Tigers.
  5. Worst in baseball history (outside of the Tigers) has got to be Anthony Rendon. Not just because he barely plays, but because he openly admitted he didn't want to play.
  6. The Tigers are probably the worst team in the majors right now.
  7. ♫ Whoa Whoa Whoa Whoa They Blow You don't have to take it from me Whoa Whoa Whoa Whoa They Blow And most posters here would agree ♫
  8. .421 BA / .500 OBP only 3 Ks in 28 ABs. Wow. I think some outfielders on the Tigers should start paying attention to this. Honestly, they could trade Greene right now and it wouldn't upset me one bit.
  9. Put a couple guys on the Tony Packo's diet. See if that snaps them out of this coma.
  10. I like the Tigers 2026 slogan "The 2026 Detroit Tigers............Wait, what? We've got a game today?. Okay, sure".
  11. It is the curse of Chris Illitch. Teams he owns have players that become zombiefied and exist in a state that is no longer alive, but not dead.
  12. They might be the worst team in the majors right now.
  13. This team's slogan so far this season should be "Oh, wait, you mean we have to play today? Oh, okay, sure".
  14. 19 years - almost. Hard to believe. It's all so sick and senseless.
  15. This team sucks. They really do. They need some sort of change. They are picking up right where they left off last September. Last year's red hot start was led by a couple guys (McKinstry and Baez - and Torkelson a bit too) who were playing way above their normal. They all kind of faded by September and that is the version we're getting now. This team is lethargic. They must be taking their cues from the Red Wings. They look disengaged and disinterested. There needs to be a change somewhere on this roster. A shakeup. Something that makes them say "Oh, ****....:, Torkelson to Toledo or traded? I don't know. Can't play the no-name Cardinals every night. To think this team - the way they are playing now - could be anywhere near .500 is laughable. Without Keith and the rookie where would they be?
  16. I kind of hope our teams stop putting former star players in charge. It screws up their legacy. Dumars ended so badly. Tramell as Tiger manager ended badly. Yzerman's going badly. It's hard for these teams to be objective when it's someone who was a fan favorite as a player. It's a case while we have missed the playoffs for a decade (and they're missing this year, lets be serious), other teams have gone from being really good to bad to good again and we just sit there in that #9/#10 spot - forever. It's very frustrating. I feel like we're gonna watch the Rangers, Panthers and Leafs pass us by next year.
  17. Wow.........This team is trying to kill their fans.
  18. I liked Rod & Mario. I don't care that they weren't buddies. I don't care that one guy shoved a chair at the other and then shoved him. That happens. I've been in media for 40 years and there are times when you work with people that you don't click with, but the work is still good. I knew one guy who literally body slammed another (after he gave his real cell phone number out on the air). They both got suspended a week. When they came back to work they were fine with each other. They had their blow up and it was over.
  19. HBO needs to bring this back. When this came on, you felt like you were about to watch something special. I even loved watching the making of this thing, whatever it's really called.
  20. I guess I’ve grown up because I resisted the urge to say “yabba dabba do”. I was once at the Meijer in Allen Park (on The Hill) and I was in the produce section and some lady yelled out for her son "MARCO !" so I answered "POLLO" and several people laughed, but the woman looked at me like I tried to kill her dog or something. I don't think it was too inapprioate. It was funny.
  21. I was never a Kiss fan, I was more into R&B growing up, and I didn't know much about Ace until after he died. But then I saw clips of interviews with him and he had the best laugh. It seemed like he was having a lot of fun with it all and I get the impression that he left because Gene and Paul were taking everything way too seriously. That Tom Snyder interview is an absolute riot. How can you not like a guy when he's having such a good time like that?
  22. And by the way. Why Talbot? He's brutal. He's been brutal all season. What does Cossa have to do? He was pathetic yesterday. Yeah, I know the defense wasn't great, but at least 2 of those goals should never have happened.
  23. Well, I just save $20 a month. Goodbye FanDuel Sports !
  24. We finally make a trade dealine deal and the guy sucks.
