The Raiders will back up the Brinks truck for John Harbaugh.
-
I mean, come on, man. This should be illegal. You want to Frankenstein new ****, go ahead, there's so little actual talent out there they have to now, but what the hell are you doing with classic stuff? I guess label execs Frankensteined Marvin Gaye's "What's Going On" and it got yanked. Why - because Marvin was missing notes? No, he just wasn't absolutely perfect. Because that is incredibly rare with the human voice. I don't like the Eagles (Me and the Dude), but it has more to do with Don Henley being an insufferable prick, than their music. Randy Meisner knocked it out of the park, but it wasn't good enough? STOP DOING THIS !
-
No, it's not new. I just never knew about it because I like actual music. It was put into the new music portal because it was a different mix than the standard one, which is probably also terrible.

that just sucks. no treatment for that advanced stage. I hope he can get well enough to at least do a few more things he enjoys while he still can enjoy them.

That was one goddamned impressive win yesterday. They beat the Knicks will out of them. And without Jalen Duren. Still room for improvement. Room for a good outside shooter. They should be the favorite for the Finals now (if they stay healthy). And they are deep as hell too, meaning they can take some of the mileage off their stars in the stretch. What an incredible turnaround from two years ago. With many of the same pieces. Shows you how a good coach can really turn things around.

****ing Kickers, man.

Well, there's the whole avoiding a shutout thing too.

If they were to land Bichette or Bregman, then there's a pretty decent chance that some of those guys you mentioned get traded to get another SP. Some sort of package deal. They don't think they are WS contenders. They think they are AL Central contenders. So they aren't going for it all. Now, should they look really, really good during the season, maybe they take a wild swing before Skubal goes away, but they had that season in 2025 and they didn't. They'd better get a King's ransom for Skubal.
-
Yeah. Baseball and Basketball maybe guys are willing to lose just to end the season. But football and hockey with the beating those guys take it's an insult. They want to win and if you have guys in those two sports that are okay with losing, then maybe you have the wrong guys. The Bears might not have the same edge, but you know Ben wants to atone for earlier this season (although that beating may have been the thing that galvanized the Bears).

that's creepy man, just creepy ♫ So Let the sun shine in, face it with a grin ♫ Great, now that's stuck in my head

Keep the division illusion alive by having the home/home vs the same teams every year. Every year Bears, Packers, Vikings twice. Everyone else is on a rotation. 18 games (because we all know that's coming) 6 vs. those Regional Rivalries with a home & home (then based on a rotation........) 6 vs. others in your conference 6 vs. the other conference. With these games, you make sure that every year you play a certain number of games West Of The Rockies, so everyone has to do the dreaded West-Coast road trip at least once or twice a year.

Wilma suffered from the whole thing that made people hate Skyler White. She tried to provide common sense and put a stop to Fred's stupidity. The Wet Blanket. But in the end, she was usually right.

I heard an interview that Jim Harbaugh did on 97.1 and as the interview was ending Harbaugh threw out there "that Barney Rubble, what an actor" and nobody got the reference. He probably had Connor Stallions tape the movie while a neighbor was watching it. "Name of the deceased, Something Polish?" comes just after this clip ends. Due to changing morals - some people might find a movie about prostitutes played for comedy in poor taste, but it's actually a pretty PG movie. Ron Howard's second film as a director (the first was Grand Theft Auto, if you can believe it). This was great for Henry Winkler too - because he couldn't get parts because people would only see him as the Fonz and he needed a friend to pull him out of that. So glad he got an Emmy for Barry, he was great in that.

Just rank them by conference. Still have divisions, but the playoff rankings are by conference. Make a rule. Even if you win a division, you don't make the playoffs with a losing record, You go 9-8 and you're in, you go 8-9 and sorry, that's on you, see you next year. Or use the Lions idea. Congratulations Panthers/Buccs, you are the 7th seed, good luck in Seattle.
-
An 8-9 team going to the playoffs and HOSTING a game. Pure garbage.
-
That Barney Rubble, what an actor ! (bonus points if you can pull that reference)
-
absolutely idiotic. it was a bad year. that went right last year went wrong this year. and that is often the case in NFL. The Niners didn't fire Shanahan and I think they may get back to the Super Bowl this coming season and they were 6-11 last year. Campbell can't magically make injuries better and i think Ragnow blindsided them with his timing a bit. His mistake was the OC hire. I know the D was bad at the end, but we were putting 5th string guys out in the backfield and our D-Line was very disappointing. These are all quickly-fixable things.

Red Wings January 2026 Game Threads

This game is going to cost them big time. Big time. -
Will Tigers Pony up for Skubal
Motor City Sonics replied to AlaskanTigersFan's topic in Detroit Tigers
The moves (or lack thereof) this offseason makes me believe that the Tigers do not think they are legit contenders - that they might be able to win the Central, but nothing more. If they thought they were legit, they'd go get a couple of big pieces and go for it NOW. But no, they're biding their time and seeing what they can get for Skubal and then aiming for 2028 and beyond. If they trade well, could be much better than they are now. Can't do worse than Avila with the big piece. In the Verlander and Martinez trades combined we got Jake Rogers. Can't do that again. I swear that J.D. Martinez trade was the worst in Tiger history. Jose King, Dawel Lugo and Segrio Alcantara. All the same position, none of them were ever good enough to start an MLB game. Lugo and Sergio only made the team when they were the worst in baseball because they needed actual live bodies. -
Will Tigers Pony up for Skubal
Motor City Sonics replied to AlaskanTigersFan's topic in Detroit Tigers
It's not HIS decision. The Tigers need to see what they have for the long haul now. They need to see if Jung, Lee, Anderson or McGonigle are viable options. The Tigers don't, and shouldn't care one bit about his offers from other teams in future years. That is not their concern. Maybe fewer games at 2b last year prevents the injury that wrecked the end of his season. They are going to look at what they have. If they don't it's incompetence. (Plus they maybe need to showcase a guy or two for possible trades). That's why they are not signing Bichette or Bergman, no matter what rumors are flying around this week. They have to know what they've got. What these guys do at Toledo or Erie doesn't matter anymore. -
Will Tigers Pony up for Skubal
Motor City Sonics replied to AlaskanTigersFan's topic in Detroit Tigers
I feel like he's going to start 33% of his games at DH. At least. -
Raymond is playing for Sweden I am guessing Seider for Germany.
-
So Dylan Larkin is playing for Team USA. You know what that means, right? Here comes the injury, that doesn't end his season, but has him return at less than 100% and here comes the March Dive again. I can feel it. It's all just a little bit of history repeating. That stupid Four Nations thing killed the Wings last year. Just killed them. Our guys did not come back the same after that.
