lol I was building a chair. I knew someone was going to post something like that though.

I got two blisters on my hand from working today. one is on my middle finger, so that might hinder my ability to give my opinion on the ref job for the wings game tonight.

NO QUIT! Are you kidding me? Oh man is this team gunna be interesting this year lol.

5-1 for the first week! I will take that. What a group of guys we got, there isn't an ounce of quit in them!

its just the rolls of material they put down under the ice to make the lines and white surface. most rinks paint the white and the lines under the ice, but I am assuming that they just put down rolls of vinyl with the lines and markings on them instead of paint.

Divisions are there for regional travel and to encourage inter-division rivalries. So having divisions is kind of a playoffs in itself so the top team in each division is rewarded for winning. The playoffs are there for teams to see how they stack up against the entire league, but divisions are there basically for the travel, keeping the majority of the games within a reasonable distance instead of jetting all over the country every game.

Is there anything better than Opening Day with the Tigers? Its just not the same with the Wings, not much of a production at the Joe. This is basically a holiday.

well, I guess the tigers just bide their time and shuffle past the starter and then tear a new ******* in the relief? 3 games and 3 blown saves by the royals...

very interested to see what Scherzer can do for the Tigers tonight.

I think if Pronger, Perry, Tootoo, and Crosby all went to the Avs, the Wings and their fans would gladly bring that rivalry back. But yeah, I think it is really dead since the lock-out because a lot of players from both teams are retired or were not able to stay with the teams because of the cap. It was a good run, but all good things must come to an end.

Well everybody, the season officially starts tonight with Yankees/Red Sox, and the Tigers kick off tomorrow in KC! It's April everybody, baseball is back!

Well, bye bye "Gum Time" Tigers trade away Nate "Gum Time" Robertson to the Marlins for a minor leaguer and cash considerations. Nate is contracted to receive $10 million this year, so that is a huge weight out of Ilitch's pocket. That leaves Bonderman and Willis to take the last 2 starting spots. 1. Verlander 2. Scherzer 3. Porcello 4. Willis 5. Bonderman http://freep.com/article/20100330/SPORTS02/100330049/1319/Tigers-trade-Nate-Robertson-to-Marlins

It could be closer than you think in the Central. With Nathan out of the picture for an extended period of time this year, the central is definitely up for grabs now.

nice to see Austin Jackson hit a homer. One of the things he isnt really known for, so thats a plus!

Well baseball fans, the offseason is here, and moves are being made. Polanco is leaving the Tigers and has signed with the Phillies. http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=4709838

90% Tigers, but feel free to add anything MLB related as well.

ok......... why did we traxe granderson if we got someone older and more expensive instead? Sources at ESPN have stated that Damon is now a Tiger pending a physical. http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=4931560

uhm, wrong thread there buddy...
