In the last the seasons Clark played one mostly full season, last year, playing 15 games. He blew out his ACL and didn't play in 2023. He injured his ankle in 2024 and finished the season on IR playing only 11 games that year. I don't know that I'd call him injury prone, but playing one full season in the past three given that he is 30 years old concerns me at least a tiny bit.

Incredible and sad to see. It's sad that both Tiger and JD's lives have been out of control at times. If Daly had Tiger's discipline when he was a younger man he could have been the best golfer on tour. Daly has all the natural talent in the world. It appears though that over the past decade, Tigers has little more discipline than Daly at this point.

It's a very bad look when you're the only ones doing it. If this were standard practice in the NFL it would be a nothingburger. But it appears we are the only ones doing this in the NFL. We already had to overcome the stigma of being owned by the worst ownership group in sports history. Shelia has worked hard to overcome that. But now to add the cheap moniker onto this organization, it's simply a bad look.

Until we get some answers either post draft or post June 1st cuts, there are a few things that worry me. This being one of them. The Derrick Barnes is probably the worst one Brad has given out. I too worry about his abilities to be a coverage-style LB and keeping up with guys in space who are faster than him. I also worry that they look at Larry Borom as their starting RT and will pass on drafting one in the first round in favor of another position.

The only way I'm trading Raymond is if I'm bringing in a new GM and starting the rebuild all over. I'm trading Raymond if I have a new regime, tanking for a top pick in the draft.

Deuce Bigalow, Male Jiggalow can sign up to fight any time he likes. So can his kids.

I would think Faulk is their top DE prospect for sure. An athletic monster who sets the edge, is stout against the run, and doesn't really focus on getting at the QB as much as he does stopping the run. That seems like a tailormade Lions DE. If they draft a DE, as disappointed as I may personally be, I think Faulk will be their guy if he's there.

Your honor, I'd like to enter into the record of "If Barack Obama did that" exhibit number 1,535,467. This exhibit is of the President dancing with a sword to the YMCA song by The Village People and waving a sword around in front of our military members. Can you imagine if Barack Obama was blasting Return of the Mack and doing some **** as dumb as this?

I got paid to be at both. George Soros had a BOGO special going on.

Someone get Brad on the phone. A defensive lineman who is a veteran, may be willing to sign a 1 year deal at a team-friendly value, and failed a physical due to injury. That's a Brad Holmes guy for sure.

I was out at two No Kings protests yesterday in Wayne and Romulus. The Wayne protest had maybe 80 people there. The Romulus one had probably around 200. Neither were massively attended but nonetheless good to see that people give a **** in Western-Wayne County. The Canton protest had an estimated 2,600 people according to a friend of mine.

I agree with his effort and love of the game. There is also the argument I've read that some have him projected as a guard at the NFL level and not a tackle.

In hindsight, would you feel better and do you think the Wings would be in a better position if they had continued tanking for a top pick in the 22 or 23 seasons to get someone like a Bedard, Carlsson, Fantilli, Wright etc.?

I really, really hope for Terrion's sake and the Lions sake his attorney is right here and there is nothing serious to be concerned over. This message from Terrion's attorney seems to imply there is nothing to worry about and he has done no wrong doing.

They picked Gibbs when they had just signed Montgomery and Jaymo when they had St. Brown, those shocked everyone. That said, I'd be genuinely shocked if they drafted Love, but wouldn't 100% rule it out given it's Brad and he's unpredictable. I would imagine Brad has a board of prospects he likes, with all his players ranked. He'll draft his BPA on his board as long as he feels that player could be a benefit to this team. Again, on picking an offensive tackle, he could draft one in the first round. I certainly hope he does draft one. I'm just not as strident as some around here that he will. If Brad is sitting there at #17 and there is a S, DE, DT, LB, CB that he likes better and has ranked as the best player available, above any of the remaining tackle prospects, I think he's going BPA, even if tackle were deemed to be a bigger need. He's not reaching for a player that he believes has less overall talent just because the need may be a little bigger at that position.

Some of these young men simply come from bad, broken environments that were high crime, high poverty areas with poor education systems. Some of them have had as many or more bad influences in their lives as they have had positive ones. You combine all of that with sudden stardom, fame, and a lot of money and it is a bad combination. I don't know if this is the case for Arnold or not, but it is for too many young men.

Does anyone in their lifetime as a Tigers fan remember a better debut than what McGonigle had today?

On the surface, she looks great, but a woman's got to have more real estate woman than just her looks. That said, I'd park on her lot for $50 if you get what I mean. She's definitely in my district as far as looks go.

Great at bat for the kid it sounds like. I am listening, not watching it, at work today.

Has Kevin McGonigle gotten a single out yet in his entire major league career? Can anyone name another MLB player who doesn't have a single out yet in their entire career? In all seriousness, right from the first at bat, this kid looks like he gets it and belongs in the Show.

Even better! He's going to be soooooo good that he makes Ohtani look like Geronimo Berroa.

Kevin McGonigle is batting 1.000 with a 1.000 OPS. He's also on pace for 320 RBIs if you figure he plays every game and averages 2 RBIs per game. Anyone who criticized him coming up doesn't know baseball. LOL! Great start kid.

It is Yzerman's job to know when this team is ready to start competing and when it is not. He got criticized by a lot of fans for not being more aggressive in the 2024 offseason. Myself included in that at times. I think one argument that some fans have made is that Yzerman, while dealt an all time bad hand by Kenny Holland, could have tanked for longer and drawn out this rebuild to attempt to get more high end talent. Specifically, I think you could make the argument that the Wings shouldn't have wasted money adding Copp, Compher, and Chiarot in the 22 and 23 offseasons. That would then both save on cap space and allow them tank for another year or two to get more high end prospects in the pipeline. Either to get a Shane Wright or Logan Cooley in 2022 or Connor Bedard, Leo Carlsson, or Adam Fantilli in 2023. As painfully slow as this rebuild has been, you could have slowed it down earlier in the process, to accelerate it later. Think about where this team would be now with Anyone of Bedard, Carlsson, Cooley, Fantilli, or Wright as a center on this team as opposed to Copp on line two. Now, where is no guarantee we'd be top 3 in the lottery given our wretched lottery luck. But the attempt was never even made to get us there. For me personally, I did want Yzerman to be more aggressive. Once it was clear in 2022 that he wasn't going to tank for another season, I wanted more moves to be made. I liked the Copp signing at the time and I wanted Yzerman to take a swing at a big trade like a Matthew Tkachuk or the late Johnny Gaudreau. Not trying to revise history when I say this, but I would have rather they tanked and given themselves a shot at a Wright, Cooley, Bedard, etc. versus trying to make improvements when they did.
