  1. What a bizarre half-inning. A near walk-off pick off and then a balk. I don't think Kenley's available tomorrow afternoon (if there's even a game).
  2. Now it's a block away, I know what it is.............because I can see it and I can hear it Dont' know if I should say what it is, but it's closing in
  3. It's a little closer now, but I can't quite make out what it is, but it's just two blocks away
  4. I'm looking down the street. Something looks familiar. I can't quite make it out, but it's more than 3 blocks away
  5. At 61? I don't have expensive tastes, 600K would be brilliant. I could move to Ireland
  6. Heck, if I got an MLB rookie salary for one year I'd be set for life.
  7. Fake. They just want you to be scared. The Weatherati
  8. Too young to remember 1968 The 1987 final two weekends. Four in Toronto and then 3 in Detroit. All 7 games were 1-run games. Tigers lost the first 3 in TO. Bill Madlock got death threats for his slide that broke Tony Fernandez' arm. Going into that week against the Orioles it was over. We were asking the O's right fielder for the Blue Jays v. Brewers score because we could not see the big scoreboard. I went to all 3 games that last weekend. They were all one-run games. Friday night Scott Lusader made a game-saving diving catch. Jim Walewander scored from second in the 12th inning to win the seond game. Waited in line all night outside the stadium for tickets to Sunday's game. And you know how that one went. Man, you talk about tense. My heart couldn't take that now. They were spent for the Minnesota series. The last hurrah for that amazing 80's group. It was wonderful. I am not, nor have I ever been a religious person. Tiger Stadium was the closest thing to a Cathedral for me.
  9. No, his weight fluctuated during Stranger Things. I think he gained for the show, but there may have been some digital manipulation too.
  10. One of the saddest endings ever. It hit me hard, being an overweight middle-aged guy. Feeling invisible. Only difference is that I kind of like it.
  11. From 14 wins to 60 in two seasons - without getting a superstar - that's incredible. J.B. has to get coach of the year this year. Should have had it last year.
  12. Who is #14 between Rodman & Vinnie. I know everyone else.
  13. Just finished DTF St. Louis and even though they telegraphed the ending (or the whodunnit) it was still a very impactful ending.
  14. Alcantra vs. Skubal. Double no-hitter going into the 7th Seriously, we may see 30 Ks today in this game.
  15. So, with this being the last home game, did they do the whole center ice raise their sticks thing? Should have raised golf clubs.
  16. It sucks when you hire a team icon in a position like that because it will tarnish their legacy a little bit. I think Alan Trammell escaped it because his rosters were bad and not his fault. But Dumars - who actually started out great - his legacy was ruined, sadly and the Pistons need to offer an olive branch to him now that they are good again. But, yeah, this spoils Yzerman's legacy. Just don't hire any former Red Wings to run things again. Just hire the best people they can find. Not sure I trust Chris Illitch there. Betweeen this and the Tigers and Lions late season collapses, it's been rough. I hope the Pistons don't let us down in the playoffs. No indication they are slowing down and there's no reason to think they won't rep the East in the FInals. Don't think they have a snowball's chance against OKC or San Antonio, but getting there two seasons after 14 wins would be incredible.
  17. We knew this playoff elimination was coming a while ago, but can't beat Ottawa, no matter how good or bad Ottawa is and then to lose the Rangers, the worst team in the conference. And how many blown leads in the third period just in the last month - about 7 ? This is as bad as it gets, man. A ****ing DECADE with no playoffs in a league where HALF the damn teams make the playoffs. They need to erase that HOCKEYTOWN crap off the ice. That's a bunch of B.S. Only time you can watch decent hockey with the Red Wings is You Tube highlights - when the team had some actual grit and heart. (Calling that arena Hockeytown is like bragging about the term Motor City where nobody can afford car insurance and the roads are an obstacle course. Seriously, Mo Seider is the only guy I even care about keeping. Larkin, Raymond, DeBrincat, Kane - all of them - just go away. And whomever pointed out the Kasper thing. What the hell happened to him? Nothing from the 3rd and 4th lines. Just get rid of everyone. I know that means sinking to the bottom for at least another 3 years, but that's better than getting your heart ripped out EVERY SINGLE MARCH !
  18. Everyone needs to be fired. The entire front office and the entire coaching staff and they need to get rid of as many players as they can. Keep Mo..........don't care about the rest. This is an absolute disgrace.
