  1. I am not seeing anything exciting about either Hicks or Owens.
  2. Good for you. Too bad you have wasted 40 years following the Tigers since even their good years brought you no satisfaction.
  3. You can not win the what about game when you support Trump. Never.
  4. They have been in the playoffs 9 times since 2006 which is pretty remarkable for a team which has one of the lowest payrolls in the game every year. The Tigers have only been in the playoffs five times including the Dombrowski era when they usually had very high payrolls. That tells us something about the Tampa Bay management skills which is what we are talking about when we praise them. Would I want the Tigers to model themselvs after the Rays? No, because the Rays are the only team that has been successful with that approach. I am hoping they do some things similarly, but I am also hoping they eventually spend more money.
  5. He means both. If he says "all vaccines" then he'll alienate some of his more moderate supporters. If he says, "Covid vaccines", he'll be seen as weak by his anti-vax supporters. So, he just says "vaccines". I am pretty sure, he doesn't care one way or the other about vaccine mandates.
  6. Yes, he is. He loves to agitate and divide people which is one of my favorite presidential qualities.
  7. Yes, he did. That is the main goal. Having the best farm system is not the goal. It might help a team reach its goal, but every year you spend building for the future instead of winning is a year in which you have not reached your goal.
  8. One thing I have noticed in polls is that Harris seems to do slightly better than Biden in polls that include Kennedy. It seems like undecideds were choosing Kennedy over Biden more than they choose Kennedy over Harris.
  9. When did the Republicans ever have a good family policy?
  10. This time of year is really frustrating with all the teasing.
  11. They are paid to get anythig that is a remote possibility out there and most of it is not going to happen. They pobably have had discussions with the Astros about Flaherty, but that doesn't mean a trade will be made. This is true of every single reporter.
  12. No, He is incapable of thinking beyond himself.
  13. I thought it happened when someone attempted to shoot Trump.
  14. I was just about to post something similar. Some people seem to think it's funny to treat human beings like **** if they illegally enter the country in which they were lucky to be born.
  15. "We are not going to have a socialist president...especially a female."
  16. A.J. Puk just got traded to the Diamondbacks. This will give us an idea of what the mediocre reliever market looks like.
  17. He won't last. Trump wnts to be the one saying dumb **** every day. He won't like Vance getting all the attention. He'll be fired.
  18. You can't go my what Trump says. Sleepy Joe Little Marco But yes, Republicans tend to be very disrespectful of women
  19. That was one of the best statements I've seen in the last 8 years. I know she didn't write it, but that was good.
  20. I doubt they would win it all if they made it because only 1 of 12 teams wins it all. so that's an 8% chance all being equal. It might be slightly less for them (perhaps 5% or 6%) because are an inferior team. The best team might have a 12% chance, but I think people overate the difference in chances between the best and worst playoff teams. At the very least, there is a strong possibility that a wildcard team could win a round or two, which is is not the ultimate goal but pretty exciting. I highly doubt the Tigers will make the playoffs. I just don't want to justify trading talent because they couldn't win the playoffs even if they made it. They should trade veterans if the don't think they can get to the playoffs.
  21. I don't agree. If they DID make the playoffs it would probably mean that they they were healthy and strong going into the post season.
