Retired from health care, now indulging my creative side (woodworking, guitar, singing/songwriting, artistic painting) with a little golf sprinkled in. Lifelong Michigan resident. Trying to stay sane and have fun!
The Dodgers, Yankees, Braves, and other handful of rich teams are surely pleased with the performances of these young stars who they’ll be signing in a couple of years once the Tigers finish fully developing them at the major league level.

Major league hitters are striking out around 42,000 times per season as compared to 31,000 twenty years ago. That’s a 33% increase. There are less than a dozen 300 hitters in the game now. It used to be three times as many. It’s no wonder I’m bored if and when I do watch a game.
I’ve now watched two installments of Eisen’s “This was Sportscenter” and have concluded that they should have just called it “Look How Great We Were.” Though he and his interviewees attempt to be self-effacing, they miss the mark.
Happy Kyne and the Mirth Makers have cancelled their performance at Freedom 250.
The only assassination attempt I’m interested in hearing about is one that succeeds.

If I’m hired at the auto plant to bolt bumpers onto the cars, but every day I require my boss to tell me to bolt the bumpers onto the cars or else it won’t get done, I won’t last long in my job. Why must we contact our reps every day to get them to act?
Just remember, if your team loses a football game it means Jesus loved the other team more.
This album is 67 years old and still my all time favorite at this time of year. What’s your favorite?
www.rawchili.com/nfl/595308/ I send out a heartfelt congratulations to this young man. He started his career with the Lions with some suspensions for obvious poor choices but through it all I kept hearing good things about his humanitarian instincts. I’m glad he is getting positive media attention!

This tells us all we need to know about the depravity of this sorry excuse for a human being. He is truly the reincarnation of Nazi Germany’s leaders.
I’m soooooo tired of watching the OTHER team eating turducken on Thanksgiving!
Lions have no sacks and no turnovers, ergo, no chance to beat a team like the Packers.
Lions play calling, especially on first down, is stale. Let’s face it. Campbell is only marginally better than Morton.
Glad we won of course but right now I’m feeling like this team is spending more time choreographing and rehearsing their touchdown and turnover celebrations than executing their game plans. C’mon fellas, get your heads right!
Are Sherrone Moore and the Michigan Wolverines out of magic dust for next week’s tilt against Ohio State? Sad to say it but I think so. Of course I said that last year.
Admittedly I’m ignorant here, so I have to ask. How did voters elect this guy as a democrat? Was it sympathy because of his health problems? Were there no clues during his campaign that he’d be such a train wreck of a representative?
Besides avenging last year’s playoff loss to the Commanders, I’m choosing to consider yesterdays beat-down by my Lions as a big fuck-you to Trump, whose approval ratings are about equal to how many points the Commander’s scored.
Lately I’ve been paying closer attention when I watch sports on Fox and the promos they run for their other programming, which is a bunch of crap. And now they’re running Trump’s anti-fentanyl ads while he starves and incarcerates children. Could their propaganda be any more obvious or disgusting?
Ever since the Jerry Sandusky scandal, there’s no team who I hope will lose more than Penn State. No one coaching or playing for this team now had anything to do with Paterno or Sandusky, but I can’t help it. I hope this team eternally loses until they discontinue football. Sorry PSU fans.
I don’t know about you, but it seems to me that the Gov’t shutdown is a trial balloon. Trump’s vision is for there to only be government employees to serve his interests and desires and provide nothing to citizens. Collect taxes, quash political opposition, enforce racist policy. That’s it.
Has a team ever come closer to winning a world championship without doing so than the Blue Jays did last night? I doubt it, and I feel bad for all Toronto fans.
Last night my Lions benefit from micro-officiating. Were these make-up calls? The review and re-review of calls, including at the league office, is unproductive since so much of officiating is subjective. Dissecting a close play doesn’t reduce controversy and further inhibits the flow of the game.
I think a really interesting treatment during these troubling times would be a sequel to The Big Chill. I think the only cast member who has passed away is William Hurt, which could be written into a new script, and writers could also figure out a way to weave Kevin Costner into the screenplay.
