  1. The bacon-wrapped dates and charcuterie board were standouts.
  2. that's your fault for watching those idiotic local "news" shows. I just hope the damage done to your IQ is not irreparable.
  3. Seems insane to me that this can’t get worked out, based on the potential damage to a game whose interest is waning amongst a younger demographic. Seems a bit shortsighted, but the owners can weather any financial storm and will likely dig in.
  4. Really hope Bobby Hebert will be the QB again. As for other options, would/could the Tigers schedule a few Mud Hens games at Comerica? Also wonder if Bally Sports would televise any of the Hens games? With the excitement around Greene and Tork, I suspect they could get some viewers.
  5. Seems like an odd time to discover that, unless he played winter ball. He could be ready by next spring with some luck. I think he’s repped by Bauer’s agent, Rachel Luba, who hasn’t been very lucky with clients (also reps Puig).
  6. Thanks—I’m missing a Torkelson. They are a bit overpriced still, so waiting to see if they come down a bit.
  7. Anyone concerned that we only have 5 hitters? Intrasquad’s will be interesting.
  8. This group has a theme to it—any guesses?
  9. Which university is Javy Baez playing at?
  10. I like Sorensen a lot—thought he was very insightful. Was sorry he had his challenges with alcohol that derailed his broadcasting career.
  11. Poor Frank. Only got 2.5 posts in his own eulogy thread.
  12. Probably true. I suspect it will become more evident if this drags long enough that the start of the season is impacted.
  13. I think the biggest risk is for fans who don’t miss it—once baseball becomes irrelevant, that’s when it is in danger. Not a risk for a collection of nerds who spend time in an online forum like us, but could be for younger fans who might be indifferent to begin with. Certainly happened to the NHL, though not an apples to apples comparison since hockey is more regional in nature and has never had the other major sport’s popularity.
  14. Nice cards!
  15. Yes, Cabrera was going to be top 10 in many offensive categories until Avisail Garcia had an affair with Prince Fielder’s wife. Unfortunate.
  16. 2006 AL Champs player sighting at the Troy Sports Card show today.
  17. Mercifully.
  18. Agree. They didn’t have to go the nuclear route. I say, No Tanks
  19. I associate Mr, Beckman with U of M, which were games I never listened to. I vaguely remember his work with the Tigers. Still, he’s a broadcasting legend in Michigan and I’m sorry to hear this.
