  1. Gibson is a smarter broadcaster than I expected him to be and he used to be very good. Unfortunately, his health is slowing him down a lot.
  2. Maybin's delivery is strained, but his content is good. I think I can get used to him. Some guys like Monroe and Morris just get even worse over time because their content is bad.
  3. 4.9% inflation is still very high. There's a long way to go.
  4. Trump probably made him do that. He didn't want to be associated with a bald person.
  5. Pig Snuggler is a troll, but I don't think Archie came here to be a troll.
  6. It's also no coincidence that Johnny Barbato was the last Tiger to pull this off:
  7. But writing is for geeks and nerds. Not a real job.
  8. He may be good at bullpen management. That is one area where I think a manager can have an impact and the Tigers bullpen has been consistently good during his tenure. The offense, on the other hand...
  9. I have no problem with Hinch as the manager. I just don't get why every time the Tigers go on a winning streak, he is built up to be a genius. The team does well when the the players do well.
  10. Yes, IngeFanClub was hilarious. I remember one post where he said his truck brakes were failing badly and he wanted to know if it was OK to drive it to the station and how fast he should go.
  11. Many studies have shown that members of households with guns are much more likely to be killed by a gun than those from households without guns. Here's one: https://med.stanford.edu/news/all-news/2022/04/handguns-homicide-risk.html
  12. Dan BingBong with the classic MAGA argument:
  13. Hinch was the manager the first four weeks too. So, if you are going give him credit for the last two weeks, then you need to blame him for the first four. It's 2021 all over again.
  14. If Greene and Torkelson don't hit, their offense will be terrible overall. If they live up to their potential, it will be interesting. I don't think the rest of the team has the talent to sustain anything long term.
  15. Tigers have one of the worst offenses in baseball this year. They are doing better because pitching (specifically Rodriguez) and defense. If Hinch has anything to do with that than great. He didn't seem to have any effect on Rodriguez or the defense the last two years. The bullpen has been consistently good under Hinch, but I think it probably has more to do with Fetter rather than chess moves.
  16. They don't care. Trump is worth big bucks to them. They want him to win in 2024.
  17. They are using him too. Their relationship is mutually profitable. CNN and all the other networks are going to keep covering everything he does through the 2024 election because the audience wants to see it.
  18. I understand the concern for local residents. I would be concerned if there was a large influx influx of new people into my home town just because of logistics (something I mentioned in my post). However, it's not a bunch of disease infested criminals invading America like many of the MAGA are saying. There will be bad people among every group anywhere, but they are not committing crimes at a higher rate than native born Americans.
  19. I don't believe people crossing the border are more dangerous than anyone else. Studies have shown that immigrants commit crimes at lower rates than native born Americans and that undocumented immigrants have an even lower rate (don't want to be caught and deported!). Logistically, we still need to limit the number of new immigrants each year, but crime isn't the reason. Neither is disease, since immigrants tend to be healthier than Amercians.
