  1. No, no they don't.. Terrible team. They really don't belong in the playoffs, but if Larking can will them there they may get there.
  2. Seems the Wings are always on their heels at the ends of periods. I guess most hockey teams see the clock get to one minute and say "there's one minute left, we've got a long rest coming - so turn it up a notch." The Red Wings say, "let's just try to kill the last minute without breaking a sweat."
  3. Exactly. Cade should play with a guard who can play on ball D, which Ivey has a long way to go on, and a big man who can pass and shoot and draws a defender again - pretty much the inverse of Duren.
  4. if he is still there on June 1st it will mean more than it does out of the gate.
  5. the wave was going strong at UM (and other college) stadium at football games well before 1984, and lots of those games were on national TV so I don't know how many people didn't know about it before it hit Tigers Stadium in the 80's. But it was a college football thing. The jump to baseball wasn't necessarily natural because not all baseball stadia are particularly good for the wave, and they often are not full enough. While Tiger Stadium did have the two decks all the way around, you still need to get the place filled up, and that didn't happen much until the team got good.
  6. Biden is the 1st Democrat since Kennedy who actually has some new ideas how to run a middle class capitalist economy. If we actually had useful public interest new programming any more, this would be big topic of discussion in intellectual circles. Instead the right's media is just in adversarial fantasy land and the left's is to busy with it's normal naval gazing self-absorption on issues of that are of peripheral importance in the real world.
  7. take a look at this: https://www.mcafee.com/support/?locale=en-US&articleId=TS102999&page=shell&shell=article-view
  8. Hinch needs to sit him down and tell him to back off and stop trying to hit everything 500ft. He may think he's 'sticking with the process' but his process has gotten distorted.
  9. well, all good things come to an end.
  10. yeah - Faedo throws that to him 10 more times he probably gets his bat on it once.
  11. Pretty gutty by Garrett. He got out of that with pretty much nothing in his tank.
  12. More like if he'd have been 28 instead of 35... 🐢
  13. A little disappointed in Canha there.
  14. Hardest hit ball was prolly the one hopper to Keith at 2nd.
  15. Team ERA must be sitting at about 1.5 about now?
  16. IDK, but if he goes 6 or more no-hit Tigers are going to look pretty silly sending him back to the minors. Not that that will stop them, but it will make for some commentary on 'Baseball Tonight'.
  17. yeah- plenty of runs go in the books as unearned, there is no logical reason runs scored by the ghostrunner don't also.
  18. He didn't make a big hit with TPTB the first time either, so that would be nothing new.
  19. I saw one analysis that I thought was spot on: Emotionally, when prices go up, you process that directly, but when you get a raise, you don't see it as because wages and prices generally go up together as part of the same macro economic effect, it's because YOU, as an individual, earned IT. So even though you are keeping up, you don't process your wage increases as inflation cancellation the way an economist would tell you they really are. I think there a kernel of truth there.
  20. The Arab world has closed its borders to Palestinians since partition. It's part of their foundational political/religious stance. The world shouldn't give them as much a pass on it as it has, but don't expect it to change.
  21. It's getting harder by the day to take the NBA seriously.
  22. WTF is "load management" for a player on a team that isn't within a moon shot of reaching the playoffs?
