Can we seriously start just using one thread. The amount of clicks for this site is way too many for the traffic. There is no need for opening more than one thread. Everyone's thoughts in one meta thread would be perfect. Make the corner great for once. Here my opinion. Truly all we need is 5 tabs: baseball, football, hockey, basketball, & miscellaneous. Because some other sports aren't of interest. Even though I like soccer, not to many on here do anymore. Love playing tennis & golf, but those aren't big conversation topics. So you can have your top 4 sports tab and a misc tab that covers everything else. Just something to consider if you want to streamline the page.

Liked the way Verlander pitched. His fastball was jumping & he had command of his pitches. Hopefully he will have a great season again. Even though it was against the anticipated lowly Chi-Sox, the Tigers looked good.

Not a surprise on Lowe or Pelfrey being cut loose. Neither one has been any good since signing. I was hoping Moya could turn it around. But when you can't play defense or hit the off-speed pitch his days were numbered.

Nevermind... googled it. That blows Hopefully they don't start a negative streak now, of not making the playoffs. This roster is horrible, it is full of broken down overpaid veterans. They have a handful of quality younger players & 2 goaltenders that are streaky. A front office that is looking lost & maybe the new ownership (the son) might not be as committed to a winner as the old. Not a recipe for success.

Saw a few more pics of her... she's actually pretty damn hot. Crazy ones are the fun ones... Hmm, where were the freak teachers when I was in HS? None of them were good looking at all.

Pollux when you were a senior or junior in HS, you would have been all over that. But I agree she does look a little creepy.

Hoff, kits can be good. Depending if you are willing to wait for the final product. Letting a beer ferment is the key to any process. Most of the guys I know that home brew started with the kits and then moved on to their own home brew system. If you have the patience you can make any style beer.

I enjoyed that game. They were "run-in & gun-in", it reminded me of the old UNLV days. Now UofM is not as good as those teams, but it was an very entertaining game.

Dating someone in the months leading up to signing a contract that's going to give you a huge payday is nuts. Exactly. If you need a woman that bad, buy a pro. She will take care of your needs and once she's paid, she leaves.

Forgot to post this. The best Christmas Ale I drank this past season has to St. Bernardus from Belgium.

It has been slow because the Red Wings & Pistons haven't gotten anybody enthused with their product. Pistons might crawl into the playoffs and the Wings look more like the dead things then their championship teams. It will pick-up, I just hope the Tigers show some life.

I wonder how long it will take people to realize their taxes are going up under Trump's plan. With the way things are going I'm gonna say just long enough for the republicans to find a way to blame it on the dems. Nice of trump to throw his group of best generals in decades under the bus for the Yemen raid. Yemen is a disaster, they never should have been there in the first place. How many presidents does it take to figure out the U.S. doesn't belong in the middle-east?

Well you are in Mexico North so.. watch out. Trump might build the wall around you too like he will New Mexico. No Mexicos allowed. I dumped all my Apple stock and put the money in concrete futures. So far so good. Hoff will be alright. They will build the wall around California before Texas.

Freddie- in my experience anytime we have changed cable companies we have had to re-wire. It seems they all have different wiring, probably another con they putting on the consumer.

I am starting to wonder if there is a lot more people involved in these sick crimes, not just the Sandusky's.

Pollux, Had Dish before U-verse, it wasn't bad. But like you we are tired of fighting with these cable companies. One minute your bill is fine, then they jack your rates. So your on the phone bitching at them, this has gone on for over 5 years. They told my wife last week they can't do anymore for us. I don't mine paying for quality, but that isn't what is happening here. So I compared Sling-TV, Direct Now (AT&T), & Vue. Vue offer the best packages, gives us the channels we want to watch and has DVR capabilities. So I am going to give this a try for a while and like I said we also have Amazon Prime to. If we have to add an app here & there we will still be cheaper then what we are paying now.

If only Mr. I owned the Detroit Lions 😩 Then I probably wouldn't be Lions free right now. Pollux you could be right. We will see how long they hold on to the Tigers.

My cable is out of f'n control and I don't watch 3/4 of the damn channels they charge me for. So with that I am going to try PlayStation Vue. I already have Amazon Prime, so with them to gather we should be alright. Does anyone here have Vue? Tell me what you think about it.

Hmm, she kind of looks like that chubby English singer. Can't think of her name, I don't like either one's music.

Maybe binge watching (the only way to watch GOT) is the way to go with this season. You guys are right, the story lines with Rick's group is played out. This might be my last season, unless major changes start happening.

Since we started on recruiting. I don't know much on it, but I watched this high school all-star game yesterday. They had a Michigan recruit playing QB, that young man was so skinny he is at least 2 years from competing. Then they got an OT recruit that was a monster. Which they need desperately

Freddie, I don't see PSU beating USC. Could be very wrong, but I see USC beating them soundly. Which will leave the Little 10 with a very poor bowl record of 3-7. Rose Bowl about to kickoff. We will see what happens
