Hollywood from a movie perspective is totally played out. I never watch any 'new' movies. Supes vs. Batman? That's fucking stupid. TV is where it's at. I agree. Breaking Bad, Sopranos, etc... You cannot do those types of things in a two hour movie. You need a season or seasons to tell those in depth stories.

Wonder Woman is getting her own movie. So is aquaman and the Flash, I think.

I don't get mtdmans point in this thread. He only keeps saying the same thing about V&F for like like last 5 years because other people do? There's a reason 105.1 is defunct. There's no market for that. 97.1 would be in the same boat, if they didn't have the major sports broadcast rights....particularly the Tigers. I don't think the Wings and Pistons do much to help. 97.1 doesn't bring anything different to the table, other than the Tigers. All the hosts are basically the same.

I liked it. And i went into it expecting to hate it. What did you like about it? I hated Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luthor. I thought he sucked, over acted and was too squirrley. I was pleasantly surprised by Affleck as Batman. I went in thinking I would hate it, but he does a solid job. I have some issues with Zack Snyder and the way he portrays Superman. He tries to make him dark and brooding like Batman.

Reviews are not good... I'll still see it, but it's frustrating that they fucked this up It's a cluster Fuck. Some of the plot points are so stupid. Like how they get them to fight. Stupid dream sequences and flash forward /backwards that had nothing to do with the story.

Maybe Detroit is over saturated with Sports Talk Radio. We have two FM stations, plus a couple AM floaters out there.

I saw a report that stated Quinn likes incentive laden contracts. It's possible that could be a deal breaker for a lot of potential targets. I think every GM in the league prefers incentive laden contracts. Yeah, but this is the first time a Lions GM is using this strategy. The other GMs used the grab your ankles and bear down strategy.

Henson was the first dick on Detroit sports radio He was. But at that time, it was fresh in this area. Now it is tired old schtick. Gregg was a dick, but he was also funny. Valenti copies a lot of that shtick, but without the funny part.

I don't see a single person saying CJ owes the lions or the fans anything.

Why do people think he has to have some kind of loyalty to the Lions? He got paid to play here. He played here. He got beat up and his body is in bad shape now because of that. Why does he somehow owe it to the Lions or the fans to play more for them? And why would he have to be loyal to the Lions if he decided to come back to play again? In this day and age, players don't have to be loyal to any team, and neither do the teams. If he wants to come back next year and get a ring with a different team, good for him. The Lions aren't going to be in the position to get one any time soon. I don't think Calvin owes anything to the Lions. The only thing I'd like to see if he wants to go elsewhere, is for him just to be open and honest about it and tell the front office that's his desire.

Thanks Nate Burleson!
"Congratulations on your retirement, man. Now, take this year off ... then find a way to land with the Patriots and get a championship ring," Burleson wrote recently for NFL.com. "You deserve it."

So they think Trey Burke 2.0 is coming in?
Future Wolverine Xavier Simpson named 2016 Ohio Mr. Basketball
"He's very much like No. 3, in that he's driven to be the best point guard he can possibly be," Beilein said of Burke's old number at Michigan. "He's got a little bit of a chip on his shoulder and that's really healthy."
In now sharing the Mr. Basketball crown with Burke, Simpson told the Associated Press that he knows the comparisons to the former U-M star and current Utah Jazz guard are inevitable.
"Oh definitely," Simpson told the AP. "With me going to Michigan and seeing the success they had with him. What I'm hearing, from out of high school no one ever thought he would go to the NBA. And Michigan put the ball in his hand and helped him make the right decisions and get better as a player. That prepared him for the next level, so hopefully they can do that for me."

Michigan got two commits last night, one for 2017 and one for 2018:
4* In-state linebacker Joshua Ross announced this morning on the radio that he had committed to Michigan for 2017. The 6-0, 219 pounder is the younger brother of recently graduated James Ross III.
Springfield (OH) ILB Antwuan Johnson, the #80 overall prospect on 247's early class of 2018 rankings, announced his commitment to Michigan this evening after visiting campus last weekend with a couple fellow Ohio players, including five-star DE and Springfield teammate Leonard Taylor.
Johnson is the program's first 2018 commit.

NO, it's not! You guys are fools. Appalachian State was a FCS school!!!! Name another FCS school that has beaten a top 5 FBS school on the road then we can discuss comparisons…. UM wasn't top 5 when they lost. This is worse. Wow, I did not realize that MSU was ranked #2 in the nation. This makes this loss even worse, knowing that. espn.go.com/mens-college-basketball/rankings

I find it funny that some MSU fans are trying to claim that this wasnt a big upset. Just accept it and move on Who would say that? Caputo.

Lovely.
Lakeland, Fla. — Manager Brad Ausmus, coaching the split-squad team playing the Braves in Disney, told reporters designated hitter Victor Martinez might begin swinging the bat again Monday.
He also said it was possible Martinez won't be ready to start on Opening Day.

Boca Raton, Fla. — The Lions’ signing of defensive tackle Stefan Charles was strikingly similar to last year’s deal with Tyrunn Walker, and Charles' former boss said Sunday the Lions are getting a player with significant upside.
Like Walker with the Saints, Charles was a restricted free agent with the Bills, and after Buffalo chose not to tender him, the Lions signed him to a one-year deal.
“He’s got tremendous upside, but he’s a hard worker, very diligent about his craft,” Whaley said. “And he’s big and massive, and if you’re looking for a guy that can play against the run and has got potential as a pass rusher, that’s him.”

Not to name drop or anything but I am at the den with the mayor of the ville and the guy who made the switch at 101 to get rid of drew and mark for Dave and chuck and switch at 105 to sport Did he give you the scoop on Dery and Sharp?
