Are there things you do purposefully and consistently that aid in your health? Do you have dietary regimens or rules such as not eating after a certain time at night or avoiding certain foods? Do you eat slowly on purpose so you end up eating less? Does anyone do yoga or meditate or engage in various forms of contemplative surrender? Anybody into a certain regimen of vitamins? Or do you forgo vitamins and just try to eat right? Just trying to get the conversation started.

It was suggested by our long time fellow poster @CMRivdogs that we should have a Health Thread and that’s a good idea so here it is. I don’t have anything in particular to post about right now, but I must be doing something right because I’m 74 years old and tons of people in my age group that I grew up with or have known have already died. Anyway, knock yourselves out. Metaphorically speaking…

I drink one or two 12-16 oz. servings of coffee a day. I grind Ethiopian beans and usually brew a rounded 1/4 cup in a French press. And if it allegedly helps me not have dementia I’m all for it.

Differently dimensioned.

So I guess that 230 pounds is muscle mass…

Framber is 5‘11“ and JV is 6‘5“. At 5‘9“ I would look short compared to Framber although I weigh 30 pounds less.

I haven’t been this excited in years. Having JV back is like something out of a storybook. I just never thought there was any chance of him wearing a Tigers uniform again. I just hope our position players remember how to hit the ball this year.

That’s a tough memory…

I’m just amazed that there will be no blackouts on mlb.tv anymore. Of course, the only time I suffered from a blackout was when the Tigers were playing the Mariners but still it’s going to be nice to be able to see all the games.

I’m really verklempt about this. I’m such a sentimental fool.

OMG! I have unhooked from the wicked hive mind of this crumbling civilization all morning, and I discover that JV is coming home. Being superstitious I think perhaps I should withdraw from the hive mind more often…

That is a sobering and not particularly edifying projection.

I just wish the Tigers would release the radio and TV schedules for the year. So far only the Orioles and the Yankees have released broadcast schedules. Oh yeah, and the Twins, but they are always only playing somebody called the Golden Gophers.

This is my situation.

Fumble recovery leads to a touchdown. Wow.

A touchdown!

I’d give it a 94

Looking forward to the Mesikan half-time show….. 😇

On social media platforms and in Internet ads, I am being constantly inundated by pitches to buy Detroit Tigers gear. After 22 years on this site, I guess “the Internet“ has finally figured me out.

Thank you!

Everyone is of course free to do whatever they want. But I have never cared about or followed players that have left this team ever. I just lose interest and when they leave this team, their exploits are meaningless to me. Even JV. When Skubal leaves this team, I will cease to care about him. I don’t even identify myself as a “baseball fan.“ I’m a Tigers fan. Baseball doesn’t exist for me unless it’s the Tigers. I’m not necessarily proud of this, but it is what it is. I’m glad that other people can find joy in baseball in general or sports in general. I just don’t happen to be one of those persons.

Ha. I don’t really blame you.

So I guess Baez tested positive for weed a couple years ago. BFD.

I jumped on board after the fast start in 2004. I was familiar with Mlive, which was generally awful, and when I found this place, I’ve never looked back. Living 2000 miles from Detroit area media it was easy not to care. Thankfully, the aliens from Kepler-22b sent plans for the Internet to the Very Large Array and now I was re-connected.
