    2008 NASCAR Thread

    Kyle Busch is absolutely dominating this year. The question I have is can he keep it up. I think he has a lot of promise but don't think he is quite there yet.

    2008 Detroit Tigers Season Thread

    the closest comparison I can come up with to this whole Inge-Cabrera situation is the summer of 2001 for the Red Wings. They already had a capable goalie in Osgood, however, Dominick Hasek became available and the wings made a move to get him. no one is saying that Inge is not capable of being the tigers 3rd baseman, they just had a chance to grab one of the best 3rd baseman available. Any GM would make that move.

    Should the NHL have a European Division?

    I am fine with an European divison but traveling makes it difficult. I am not opposed to having the European divison only play the North American divison in the finals. Something like MLB did before interleague play.

    2008 NFL Draft Thread

    Heard this rumor on the radio today. I hope the Lions take this offer if it is ligit. Roy Williams to Philadelphia for Lito Sheppard and the Eagle's 1st round pick (19th overall) I would love this move. The Lions then can draft an offensive lineman and then a cornerback or halfback.

    Brett Favre Retires

    watch aaron rodgers get hurt early next year and the pack will then be led by joey ballgame. Sad think is with him at the helm, you can still beat the lions.

    Brett Favre Retires

    I must apologize. I have been busy and haven't had the chance to comment on #4 retiring. Here are my thoughts: WOO HOO!! DING DONG, FAVRE IS GONE!!! I know its not the opinion that everyone in the nation has but I am happy he is gone. I am a Lions fan who repeatedly have had my heart ripped out by #4, even at the Silverdome (the Lions have actually made the playoffs). No matter what we did against #4 he would just get back up and lead his team to victory. You could always count on that. No one in the league I wanted the Lions to beat more than #4 and the Pack. That being said if he was on my team, I would consider him the greatest QB ever. The comparison between Lions fan and #4 is similar to Wings fan and Chelios before he became a red wing. You hated him as a player but once Chelios came to your team, he suddenly became great overnight. You want to show the ultimate respect for a nemesis, hate them. I HATE YOU #4!!!

    College basketball '07-'08

    THOSE ARE MY SPARTANS!!! Huge win over Indiana today. Team plays like that and they can beat nearly anyone in college hoops. Problem is they don't play like that all the time.

    Why isn't Downey playing every night?

    Hudler has a spot on this team in the future. The Red Wings management made it clear to me that he is gonna be here for a while based on not trading him before the trade deadline or trading him in previous seasons. Downey may just be a Red Wing for this season and this season only.
  14. reminds me of Gundy's "I'M A MAN!! I'M 40!!" rant from last year. This is classic from the beginning. I love when coaches lose their cool and just go nucking futs.

    Michigan woman's basketball coach goes nuts

    does it really matter? What I find great is the audience that got to witness this meltdown was only 6 people!!

    I take it if this is a situation where no runner is on base. With runners on, the pitcher obviously has more to be concerned with than just what pitch to throw.

    2008 NFL Draft Thread

    a piece of crap was traded for 2 pieces of crap to be named later. Sounds like a win to me and typical Lions move. Would you rather we make a trade like we did last year with Bly for a running back who gets injured, a tackle who can't block and a 5th round pick (Johnny Baldwin)

    Shuttles to Comerica

    i always park at the ren cen and take the people mover to the copa to see a tigers game. It's fairly cheap and not a whole lot of walking to the park. For your situation, stay around the ren cen and then ride the people mover to grand circus for the game.

    ESPN hits new low

    I turned on ESPNEWS when i got home from work around 3pm and they talked about 2 main stories in depth. Yao's injury and the hockey trade deadline. I didnt think they ignored hockey at all. Within 30 mins, they had Barry Melrose talking hockey.

    anyone else think the Lions should go after OT Ryan Clady from Boise State. We definately need help at the line and he would help immediately.
