    Cam Newton has a lot to learn

    People love piling on D bags. Cam is a D bag. People love piling on Cam because he is a D bag. Simple really.

    Bad decision by Elway

    Wow. I know hindsight is 20/20 and all, but how do you pass on that deal?

    Johnny Football ??

    I would definitely take a flier on Gordon if he's cheap and it's low risk. Manziel is a piece of crap. Talent wise he's borderline. I can't believe he will be in the league with any team two years from now.

    My goal was to create what you have with your folks for my kids. Mostly successful, still a work in progress...

    Blast from the past, "Smokes" and others

    I always liked him when he was here. He had to pitch vs. throw, and was pretty good at it.

    Blast from the past, "Smokes" and others

    In '91, Deer had more XBH (41) than singles (39), and nearly had more strikeouts (175) than batting average points (.179). Also, this guy, with velocity in the upper tiers for a windmill softball pitcher:

    Upton to Tigers 6 years, and tried to trade him during 2016 season

    Not to be crass, but when Illitch dies we are so screwed.

    2008 Lions, where are they Now?

    Decent job is stretching it for me. Way better than Millen, but I honestly think you or I could have accomplished that with a little help. The Roy Williams deal summed up Mayhew for me. Genius trade to snag a 1,3, and 6 from Dallas for Roy and a 4th. Then he drafts Droptimus Prime...

    Calvin Has Officially Retired

    I think it's more like 11 mil. IIRC, unpaid bonuses get accelerated. Calvin's hit is 24,008,000 this year. 15,950,000 of that is salary, which we won't get hit with. Same goes for salary in '17,'18 and '19. So we are saving 15,950,000 in salary in '16, but there are bonuses totalling...

    Russell Wilson....lol

    Its amazing that civil debate can happen when everyone acts like an adult. I like this argument. I think that Wilson had an elite year, and is just below that first tier of QBs. Another year or two at this production level may raise him to that top tier. I think that Stafford had a very good...

    Russell Wilson....lol

    If Wilson had thrown it as much as Stafford, the difference in YPA would have amounted to an extra 890 passing yards in 2016, or 55.6 yards per game, or 5 extra first downs per game. He would have had 4914 yds, 42 TDs and 10 INTs. He was the absolute model of efficiency this year...

    Easy there, pipe.

    Russell Wilson....lol

    Wilson was 14th in passer rating...all time. He also threw in 500+ rushing yards. He may not be elite (yet), but his season sure was.

    Lions want to interview

    Flynn came down with a case of Scott Mitchell-itis. When will these teams learn that a handful of good games does not make a franchise QB?

    Tigers trade for Justin Wilson of the Yankees

    In the comments section of the link from the OP, Yankee's fans are unhappy. That sounds good to me.

    Tigers acquire Francisco Rodriguez from Brewers

    Thanks, now I understand where you're coming from. I guess this is what happens when the cupboard is bare. I fear that with the age of the owner, this organization is going to try to buy their way back to the top. We don't to reload, we need to rebuild. I just don't think it's going to turn...

    Tigers acquire Francisco Rodriguez from Brewers

    You said that he improves us by 1 or 2 wins. So he is at least a slight upgrade. You say that we need to solve question marks in 2/3 of our bull pen. Are you advocating that they not try to improve the team? Are you down on the particular player? (yet you say you wanted no one) Or are you...

    Drew Sharp article Spot on

    I've lived in Pittsburgh for 21 years and have held out. Until now. I think I'm done. I can take the losing. What I can't take is ownership accepting the losing. I've followed this team since I was 7 years old in 1980. 35 years is enough. I've got no ties to Detroit. I became a Lion's...
