  1. Billy Martin was hired by Texas after Detroit fired him, in season. And in 1975, when Texas fired him, he took over the Yankees. Lol Jeez...reading about Billy. So interesting. One of the times he got fired from the Yankees, he was replaced by Bob Lemon, who had just been fired by the WSox. They don't make them like Billy Martin anymore...
  2. Im not how accurate that Free Press article was anyway. Looking into it, several teams have recently acquired players that helped them win a championship. https://www.nba.com/news/6-recent-trades-that-helped-fuel-nba-championships
  3. Im sure there has to be managers who got fired during a season and got hired somewhere else. My guess would be Billy Martin?
  4. But that's hindsight. We could have traded for a player or two and have them bombed out. I wish they would have tried and traded draft picks for some accurate 3 point shooters but who would I want traded from our roster? Harris? And future picks? If somebody wanted Stew, I would hang up. But we really can't say a player got traded and has done really good. You just never know. .
  5. I don't think any of us know if there's an opt out in his contract or not. I'm absolutely positive he's staying here but sometimes there are opt outs written in contracts. Aren't there?
  6. Didn't Sparky?
  7. I remember when the Yankees tried that with Catfish Hunter. MLB didn't allow it
  8. It's AhMizing pitching. Extend the man!!
  9. A typical AA kid would need more seasoning. TBH, I also thought he probably would too. But I never saw him play or scouted him. I basically didn't know anything about him. So, I'm pleasantly surprised.
  10. Maybe the day off cooled Tork off? My bet is he hits one today!
  11. The KC HR celebration is...different. They kiss.
  12. First turnover and the fans will be letting the Pistons have it. At least, I hope so. Being so casual with the ball, making lazy passes and missing free throws cost them all 3 games in this series. And possibly the whole series. Totally unacceptable.
  13. Fans who are screaming about the Pistons not making a move makes them feel better but I also read an article about teams making a big trade deadline move hadn't won them a championship in 8 years. Could we have been the next team? We'll never know. I see their point though, at least we could have tried. The heck with the future, I wanna win now
  14. I wonder if there's betting going on whether Tork makes it 6 games in a row? Probably.
  15. Games going down to the wire only magnify the turnovers and missed free throws. Just get a basket on half of the turnovers...even a third...and it's a win.
  16. IDK, he's still only 22 years old. I wouldn't give it to him but the Pistons might.
  17. Stew...lmao. He found a way to get open. A 2 handed shove clears out the defender. Better be careful, the Lions will draft you. 😆😆
  18. The Pistons MVP sure isn't much of a factor in big playoff games. Maybe find some scoring help this offseason?
  19. The turnovers and missed free throws and killing us. We could be up by 10, easily.
  20. We stayed close enough to win it in the 4th. The question is, can we play good enough to win?
  21. I keep hearing that Orlando is better than a typical 8 seed. Maybe Detroit isn't as good as a typical 1 seed?
  22. Cade's turnovers are killing this team. A hard pass right at a teammates feet isnt very smart. Sit him...
  23. I hate that pass he always tries to make. A blind pass that creates a turnover.
