    I never even heard of Cabby saying anything but let me get this straight. You're upset that Cabby said something during batting practice when Cabrera has always been a light hearted guy who jokes around at all times but you're cool with Cruz taunting our pitcher in the middle of an LCS? You're sure you're a Tigers fan?

    Official Detroit Lions thread

    Team didn't look good today in pretty much all aspects except for a few exceptions. Even Hanson missed a FG. Although it was over 50 yards... I'm not really that upset about it though. The Niners are a good team this year and 5-1 is a hell of a start for a team that hasn't made the playoffs in over ten years.

    Yea, a great season despite the disappointing end. If you told me at the beginining of the season we would have made it to game 6 in the ALCS I would have been super happy with that. That means we did a lot of good things to get there and we did. Illitch has said he is looking to add another big bat during the off season. I have no idea who that could be but my guess is maybe a 2nd or 3rd baseman. That's about the only hole we need to fill once Boesch comes back and now that we have Young. We'll see though, it was a good season none the less. Now time for the Lions and Wings to give this city something to cheer about.

    I am so pumped for this game. I'm also pretty nervous but I will still enjoy this game win or lose like I have all year. It's been a great season. I'm not ready to stop watching baseball just yet so hopefully the Tigers cam pull a win out here somehow and force a game 7. Scherzer has got to keep the ball down or else the Rangers are going to smack him all over that park. If he does that, our hitters will put up their share of runs. Let's do this.

    10/15 GDT: Red Wings 3 at Wild 2 (OT)

    I was maybe going to go to this game as well. I live in Michigan but my brother moved to Minneapolis half a year ago. I went to a Twins vs Tigers game out there in August when Verlander got his 20th win. It was great. Alas, I didn't make it out there this weekend but I may come out for the game on the 25th I believe it is?

    10/15 GDT: Red Wings 3 at Wild 2 (OT)

    Same here, could be another big night for Detroit sports. I may have to bring another TV into the living room for this one. I have faith the Wings will light up Harding tonight. 5-2. Pavel, Bert x2, Mule, White.

    Alexander Sizov

    I wish there was a little bit more to it. Maybe like a mini interview or something but I'm sure it's still much too soon for that. It's still very interesting to read what was going through his mind just a few moments before the crash. It's such a shame that it appears to be human error that caused the crash. Something that is easily avoidable...

    10/13 GDT: Canucks 0 at Red Wings 2

    This is different from the OP lines. (Eaves in for Homer) but if these are correct, I find it odd that Eaves isn't playing on a regular basis. Even if they have had two pretty good games as a team. I'm also anxious to see when Brunnstrom gets his first regular season start as well. I hope it's on Saturday.

    10/8 GDT: Red Wings 3 at Avalanche 0

    Yea that's definitely the reason. It's not every year these two teams play at the same time in October.

    10/7 GDT:Senators 3 at Red Wings 5

    Anderson should have got that one but we'll take it. Lidstrom made enough of a move to fool him just the slightest. Good start for the Wings!

    What a game these past two have been! We should be able to light up A.J. tomorrow but you never know in the post season.

    I can't wait to see Fisters playoff debut tonight. AL pitcher of the month for September with a .53 era is unheard of. Hopefully the rain holds off and we can get this one going. Let's go Tigers!

    That's awesome. Love seeing them getting honored all across the NHL.

    9/23 Exhibition GDT: Philadelphia Flyers 3 at Red Wings 1

    +1 just because I think your name and avatar are hilarious. I have been watching the Tigers so I haven't watched any of this game. Who scored for the Wings?

    9/21 Exhibition GDT: Red Wings 2 at Penguins 3

    This is probably the least anxious to start a season I have been in a while. One simple reason for that. Los Tigres. But as always, I can't wait to get hockey going again. 16 days til the meaningful stuff starts.

    So close... yet so far away.

    First 9 game win streak since may of '84. This team is on fire right now and at the perfect time. The playoffs can't start soon enough. With Verlander pitching twice in a 5 game series, the Tigers have a chance to beat anyone.

    Nabokov plans to report to NYI's training camp

    YEA ME TOO. MAYBE HE WILL PLAY AND HOPE TO GET TRADED AS THE SEASON GOES ON. I HOPE HE DOES WELL THOUGH.

    Bettman is a ******.

    Has Bobby Orr talked about Lidstrom?

    Nice quotes. Wonder what he will say when Nick passes him in Norris trophies.

    God, I can't wait to see Pulkkinen put the winged wheel on. The kid could be the next Pav if all goes well.

    Trade Speculation Talk...

    Yea, let's just trade off one of our best playoff performers when healthy. Sounds good.

    Epic Boooing of Bettman

    If you feel sorry for this guy you are way too soft. He has done very little that the fans or players agree with and we have every right by paying for games and merchandise to boo as we please. What's going to get the message across more. A bunch of letters that he can easily throw away one at a time or mass public booing/embarrassment? When he threatens cities like Edmonton and Winnipeg who doesn't even have a team yet, I lost the small shred of respect I had left for him. He is a giant ******.

    WCSF Game 7 GDT: Red Wings 2 at Sharks 3

    I listened to about 60 predictions of this game on 97.1 today at work. But I refuse to make one. I made predictions for games 1,2 and 3 and none after that. I am so pumped for this game though. Someone is going to go down as a legend tonight.
