Had to do it. LFG! Agreed. He's earned it, and I say that as a former Goff skeptic! Lions absolutely need to be in WIN NOW mode and do everything necessary to keep the nucleus intact. This extension definitely aligns with such a strategy. They were one half of football away from "The Big Game". You...

What, no TORK REPORT?

We'll have to put the analytics boys on this one, comparing the exit velocity, launch rate, humidity, temperature, stadium noise level, concession sales, and fan wi-fi usage at the time of his two home runs compared to all of his other at-bats.

What, no TORK REPORT?

If it's held outside and it's anything like the annual Polish Festival, you could probably hear it from my house. I'll charge only $35 and BYOB.

https://www.toledoblade.com/sports/tigers/2024/05/05/briggs-what-are-tigers-waiting-torkelson-belongs-toledo/stories/20240505145 Great article. I'd love to see the Tigers send Torkelson, Meadows, and Keith down to Toledo at the same time, so that none of them feels like a scapegoat for the poor tea...

Well, well, well. Yet another reason emerges to "cut the cord". I'm going to hang on to "the cord" till my agreement expires, and then...?

In the nightcap, our boys just blew a 4-0 lead. I think I'll watch Star Trek instead.

The Tigers lost 2-1.

Gawd! I hate wasting a great pitching effort!

I know it's early, but Jack Flaherty is dealing to his old team the Cardinals; he has struck out the first six batters he's faced! :shock: (Edit) Make that first SEVEN batters he's faced.: (Edit #2) He's struck out TWELVE through five innings! (Edit #3) Flaherty's day ends with a career high FOURTEE...

My wife and I went to the game last night. Christmas gift from the kids. At least 3 maybe 4 times a Jared Goff chant engulfed the stadium. Started in the 2nd inning I think when the Tigers were down by 3 and had committed 3 errors at that point. It was going on loudly as the game was over and fans ...

They actually committed FOUR errors yesterday! This after committing only three in the first ten games. Baez at SS is an adventure. But have you ever seen a low trajectory line drive slice through the wind and leave the ballpark as fast as Vierling's ultimate game-winning three-run blast? :shock: Zo...

The S/RB out of Utah sounds like a special teamer at best. Maybe with the new kickoff rules that was the whole idea. Yeah, the position of kick returner is suddenly a relevant position this year. I'm still trying to wrap my brain around the new kickoff rules and exactly how that will look. I wasn't...

The pick of H*** O-lineman Giovanni Manu out of British Columbia is reminiscent of last year's third rounder DT Brodric Martin, only this one's on offense. They may be rough in a lot of areas, but ya can't coach size. The S/RB out of Utah sounds like a special teamer at best. Maybe with the new kick...

The Lions apparently got word the Packers were interested in Arnold at #25, or so goes the rumor. Giving up a high third-rounder was a semi-panic move.

Instead of commenting on the various fashion statements, I'll just say the Lions must be truly concerned about the state of their cornerback room having taken both Arnold and Rakestraw in the first two rounds, and then not having another pick till the fifth round, barring trades of course. Division ...
