romad1 Posted February 12 Posted February 12 The person they quoted about the offer was saying that Comerica Park is not where he'd want to hit...because its Comerica Park. That's like saying no pitcher wants to pitch at Fenway Park. Quote

Any Tiger player that spits on his likeness will be sent to the minors - Must always be the highest-paid third baseman in MLB, by at least $1 million dollars per year - Will have chef-prepared meals prepared in front his locker and only he can eat that food, fed to him by rookies. Other Tigers who attempt to smell the food will be sent to the minors - Will only play when he feels like it. I guess the hold up all this time was the parking garages. The Illitches will tear down other buildings and make more. Expand Don't forget the right to refer to the offspring of Mike Ilitch as "Ilitch's Kids." Quote

Most of the people I follow are over there, but they don't use it much. They are still on Twitter, probably because they have built a strong following there. Baseball is what I'm looking for in social media, so I still use Twitter more. Quote

Edman85 Posted February 12 Posted February 12 (edited) bsky vs. twitter. I wish more people would make the move. Enough Tigers beat guys have that I can get what I need in the special group of them I've created. Still waiting on the Evans. Bluesky is 100% chronological and user chosen. No algorithm pushing stuff. I'm keeping my Twitter for the stragglers, but if you see, almost every tweet I have posted since 1/20 has included a jab at its piece of **** owner. I suspect the blue checkmarks don't want to move and lose that paycheck. My golf follows, understandably, are slow to move. Edited February 12 by Edman85 3 2 Quote
