Worst Story Ever!!!!!!!!!: My ex-girl freind went to the Whitecaps game Friday night, and met KENNY ROGERS! She got 2 pictures with him, and autographed Tigers hat! What do I get? She got me nothing!!! No getting back together now......
-
Worst part about the finals is the Pistons would have made it at least a 6 game series...maybe even would have took down the Spurs. I still won't admit the Cavs beat us. Bottom line: The Pistons beat themselves.

For people who don't like Rodney you may like this...it's from the Reds board sources are Baseball Weekly, Detroit Free Press, Jayson Stark and Buster Olney. Detroit Tigers are very close to acquiring Adam Dunn and David Weathers for Fernando Rodney and a couple of minor league pitching prospects. Notably Dallas Trahern a 22 year old Double AA Pitcher who has a 8-2 record and Eulogio De La Cruz another Double AA prospect who is 21 years old and has a excellent change-up. Other names mentioned is Virgil Vasquez who pitches for the Toledo Mud Hens and has a 7-2 record. Trahern is the prize prospect in the Detroit system and they do not want to give him up. Reds fans hoping for everyday starters at the MLB level in exchange for Dunn may be disappointed. Most likely Krivsky will look more at minor leaguers who may be ready in a few years, rather then High priced starters. This move doesn't make sense to me...the only way it does is if Monroe is on the block. Maybe we are setting up a future deal for Gange???

2007 College Football Season Talk
mannysBETTER3434 replied to SouthernWingsFan's topic in Other Sports
While Saban coached MSU I told all my MSU freinds that Saban was a dirty and shady guy. I was literally killed because they thought he was the best thing on earth. I think everyone agrees with me now except Tide fans..... -
2007 College Football Season Talk
mannysBETTER3434 replied to SouthernWingsFan's topic in Other Sports
I think the picks are fair above. I think OSU losing so much is kind of overated. OSU is well coached, and like other powerhouse football schools they just keep reloading. OSU reminds me alot of their 2002 team. U-M's DB's scare the crap out of me. No one has proven anything. Trent needs to step up, and Donavan Warren, a 5 star prep from Cali will probably start by week 2 or 3. I am on of the few people who love Lloyd Carr, and everthing he has done/represents. Sadly I believe this is his final year on the sidelines...sorry HTRW (: -
Heres another guy that has intrest in the Pistons maybe...they say he's the best international player thats not playing in the NBA...he 29 years old, and has some pretty impressive career accomplishments http://thepaintedarea.blogspot.com/2007/06...papaloukas.html

I was getting so scared because my buddy and I were watching Schillings No-No get busted after 8-2/3 innings just a few days ago. I couldn't stop getting flashbacks from that.
-
Best Tigers game I've watched ever (even last years playoffs). I had chills on my body. What a great game Verlander!!
-
I actually think the Suns would be intrested in Sheed. Teams finally saw what Sheed can do when you keep him under control. Larry Brown was perfect for him. He sparks a team in a way no other player can (both good and bad). The Suns keep flopping in the playoffs, and may think they need that unpredictable spark that Sheed brings.
-
I heard that too. I like the idea. I love Sheed, but the Pistons need to do something. How old is Marion anyway?
-
I was worried about Billups going to the Bucks too, but now not that much because I think the Bucks will draft Mike Connoly from Ohio State. I think the only other teams that have enough for Billups is Memphis, Orlando, and LA Clippers. I really want Acie Law though....I think we end up with some kind of big guy though unless they know of a diamond in the rough they can get with their other first rounder, or 2nd round pick. Joe D just said he doesn't expect any major changes to this team, but who knows what he is really thinking.
-
I really like the Randolf idea too. I would love to get him or KG. I don't think the KG idea is that far fetched. I think Minny knows they have to trade him because they won't win a title with him. KG is just to loyal to say anything. Here is the guy most think we will draft with the 15th pick. http://www.draftexpress.com/viewprofile.php?p=25 I wish Hibbert would have stayed in the draft from G-Town. I think that would be a good pick with the 15th...we need a good center.
-
How about both our first rounders, Nazr, and Amir Johnson for Kevin Garnett?
-
Flip is to blame for this though. He trusts them in the season, and they do fairly well, but once playoffs come around he does nothing. In round 2 Maxiel had a huge game, and the very next game hardly played.
-
First of all great post....my thoughts on the Pistons. -Flip needs to go, but won't. If we really wanted to change the attitude of this team (which we do) Joe D should take a risk on BILL LAMBIER!! We would be one dirty team, and focus more on DEFENSE, which Flip doesn't like to do.... -Almost positive Billups will stay with Detroit. He has even went out to say if another team offered the same as Detroit he will stay. -Bench is a joke. Hope Maxiel improves more, and Johnson is a nice suprise, which he could be. Delfino is so up and down...I guess he needs more time. I say keep Flip, and get GRANT HILL - Love the Acie Law idea...was thinking the same thing, but sadly I think Law will go to high for our 15th pick. Most mock drafts have us taking Tiago Splitter, a 7 footer. -Bring back Webber only if the price is right...he is better then Nazr
-
Haha!!! Wrote in the wrong forum!!! Since were mixing it up how about putting Lindsay Hunter in at DB? It couldn't be any worse!!

Ratings for Stanley Cup finals down 20 percent
mannysBETTER3434 replied to RedwingFan29's topic in General
Very sad...I wish Sidney Crosby would get promoted like LeBron James. Canadian teams also hurt the ratings. An ideal matchup next season in the finals would be New York vs Detroit. -
Well my first Tiger experience was good/bad. Good because I loved the stadium, and atmosphere (sold out!), but bad because they couldn't EVEN SCORE A RUN!!!!! Oh well it was a fun time......
-
Thanks! I can't wait! We got garbage seats, but I'm hoping to move to a better spot if it is not that crowded.
-
I agree! As a current Ferris student I hope he brings the cup to Big Rapids!!!!
-
Great pick by the Tigers! By the way...it will be my first trip to Comerica Park tommorow! I'm pretty pumped!!
-
Read something interesting in the paper. Said the Pistons may have a new starting PF, and C next season if they trade Nazr, and if Weber leaves or plays a bench role. They brought the name up of former sparty Zach Randolf. I would love this move! This is assuming Sheed is gone, which many think will happen (tear)
-
That was the best meltdown I have seen hands down! The hand gernade is classic!
-
Then don't come in here...is it that hard?
-
The thing to also remember about C-Webb is he is way better then Mohumand (sp). The more I think about it I hope we keep Webber.
