It's really a great song. Several of those artists on this version are no longer with us...

Give me a shortstop or give me death... Seriously, I see the Tigers biggest needs as a quality SP or 2 and a quality SS. I've seen enough of Javy's wild swing and misses. He's our best defender but his bat isn't even AA quality.

Donald Trump is too old to run for or be president. The media should laser focus on that for the next few weeks. Put him on the defensive!

I liked her other commercial about how 9-11 shaped her career choices and how she worked under presidents of both parties. She's someone who may run for POTUS someday.

The optics aren't what democrat people may like but in the grand scheme of things.....there are about 1200 total players on teams 40 man rosters. Even if all 1200 votes GOP, it wouldn't make much difference. It's a bigger deal if they influence who the fans vote for. I remember when Tom Brady went MAGA, I stopped caring about him.

It's ALL about money. Many of these guys pay more in taxes in a year than most people make per year. Greed over country...and don't forget, these jocks are mostly not the most highly educated people...

When they say #1 prospect, do they mean in the Yankees organization or all of baseball?

A debate between a former prosecutor and a current felon would be Must See TV. I hope there's enough popcorn! 🤣

Harris would eat him up with real facts. The way I was hoping Biden would have.

The 2024 presidential race. Brought to you by CNN.

I was watching Hall of Fame speeches but saw Kelly's <almost> him run. Was there other robberies?

Another Grand Slam...yee-haw!

Only an idiot would put a runner on base.

Bean him! Lol

Nope, it's already been determined that Harris is blameless. Talk about ignorant.

With his injury history, he's probably on an innings limit this season. Probably be shut down by September. In other news, he was part of a combined no-hitter in his last start.

Lol....no worries. One of them is on my ignore list now. I don't tolerate personal attacks. I can have a rational discussion with anyone who wants to express an opinion. Even if I don't agree with it. 😄

Yeah, he sounds like a cancer. And I did mention that Avila was the one who gave him that contract. But wasn't he going to be a FA whether we traded him or not? If so, he would have gotten more money pitching for LA (a playoff team) if he did well. I do remember talk of not buying out his no trade clause. My only point I've been trying to make is that Harris knew about his contract for months. When talking multimillion dollar deals, terms need to be in writing. If ERod agreed to be traded, get his signature and leave no doubt about it. To say the whole mess is ERods fault says Harris is faultless. And, like I've been trying to say, the buck stops at the top.

I heard that at the time but I never heard it mentioned by people in the know. Only on a sports message board. My only point is it should have been agreed to in advance, in writing, to protect both parties. And I would also like to think Harris learned an important lesson from it. I really dislike those multi-million dollar contracts with no trade clauses. As much as I would love to say it's all ERods fault, the big boss should take responsibility. Like we said, the player is/was an airhead who really couldn't be trusted to keep his word.

Dude, relax. OK, you're right. Harris is totally blameless. It's all ERod's fault. Harris got him to agree to the trade and ERod screwed him over. The buck no longer stops at the top. I would say the original blame goes to the guy who gave him a no trade clause to begin with but I worry that would set you off again. Feel better?

I saw an interview with him and Sean Casey. Casey said when he first got here, Leyland went over a sign with him. Told him the sign to steal a base...lol. Pure Leyland, making a joke to put a player at ease. I remember he told a rookie pitcher, who was making his first start, that if he had family coming to watch him to get there early because he may nor be in there for long...lol

I'm starting to think you don't know the meaning of gaslighting. Look it up. I think you'll be surprised. 😆

Everyone knows? Wow, a page out of a politicians book. Everyone...lol
