Re: Iconic CBC Sportscaster Bob Cole Dies at 90

Cole definitely was much better than Doc Emrick's carnival barking style of play-by-play.

Re: It's time to move on from Juwan Howard

The Nets are a dysfunctional shit sandwich right now; he'll fit in well there!

With regard to Troy Weaver, I sure wish Tom Gores would exhibit the same testicular fortitude Warde Manuel displayed relative to Juwan Howard.

Re: Apologies for the load time slowness earlier today

I am hopeful the prior "gremlins" have been worked out. The slowness was not due to hacking attempts or from malicious code injection nor does it appear to be due to Sucuri.

There were some server software maintenance needs that were addressed this evening as a result of my call to customer support.

I'm on the phone with InMotion Hosting customer support as I'm typing. Am optimistic this will be resolved soon!

He never stood much of a chance:

Re: Apologies for the load time slowness earlier today

Load time still sucks for me today. My hosting provider has yet to respond to my ticket, which is very unusual. They are either stumped or overwhelmed with server issues.

I will play around with Sucuri this evening.

Re: Apologies for the load time slowness earlier today

I've opened a support ticket. Keeping fingers crossed things will be back to normal by Friday.

I am beginning to think it is an issue with Sucuri.

Re: Iconic CBC Sportscaster Bob Cole Dies at 90

DE-TROY-UT! :)

He was one of the hockey broadcasting greats. I appreciate hockey play-by-play men who don't scream every time a goal is scored.

Some aspects of his on-air demeanor remind me of another legendary sports broadcaster - Keith Jackson.

Apologies for the load time slowness on April 25 & 26

Those of you trying to load pages from the Buzzboard late this morning or this afternoon (April 25) may have noticed lethargic server response. This was caused by the hosting company's server. A reboot of the server appears to have resolved the issue. Thanks for your continued patronage of the Buzzb...

Re: Detroit Tigers 2024

The fact the Tigers are mediocre at home and great on the road suggests to me the dimensions of Comerica Park remain an issue.

Interestingly, the Red Sox have a similar situation in terms of win percentage season to date.

Re: Shep in AB out

Bellino's morning show the couple times I tried listening a couple years ago bored me to tears. I don't care to hear long, boring interviews with past or present division II or division III coaches. I found the show unlistenable. I want to hear talk about Detroit's pro teams, Big Ten football and ba...

Re: Channel 7 (WXYZ) rebranding next Monday?

Ah, did not realize they had to pay licensing fees for that brand name.

If that is indeed the case, I agree completely that's the reason it was tossed aside.
