    Houston At Detroit: Game 42

    He is under contact until 2023, with a team option for 2024 and 2025. If he is top 10 MVP voting, they become guaranteed. His career average (not including this year is: 182 hits, 39 doubles, 33 HR (32.5, rounded up), 97 R, 114 RBI, .319 BA If he were to hit at his average until 2023, the...

    I love this

    The pass rush has me worried. In a way, I'm glad Suh is gone. At least in terms of what came with him off the field. But he sure did gobble up interior linemen. That freed up everyone else in the front 7. Ngata is a good player, and I hope he can serve some of that same role. But losing...

    I love this

    At his age, I think we're all waiting for the other shoe to drop injury wise. As far as character goes, the combination of not drafting criminals and Caldwell's demeanor has been something I've loved to see. The year we went to playoffs under Schwartz, (2011?) as great as the success was, I...

    I love this

    Sometimes I wish you guys would kill each other. :) Seriously, though, debate and argument are healthy. I disagree with each of you more often than not, but that's what make the world go 'round.

    2015 schedule

    I think the O line will be somewhat improved. I'm hopeful that the offense at large takes a step forward in year 2. The D worries me. If we don't get the pressure with the front four our CBs will be exposed as not being as good as we thought they were. Really hard to guess at a record this...

    Patriots probably deflated balls

    Isn't this type of rules violation built into the by laws of the NFL? I thought it was a 25k team fine and we all move on.

    Patriots probably deflated balls

    Steeler fans are calling for 8 games and a forfeited first round draft pick in 2016.

    Patriots probably deflated balls

    This is all anyone is talking about here in Pittsburgh. Any team that wins multiple Super Bowls becomes the enemy. Did you know the Steelers have the most Super Bowls? And did you know that NFL Championships don't count as titles won?

    Lions draft grades

    I don't know Mitch. I'm pretty happy with this draft overall. Credit for that goes to Mayhew.

    Lions draft grades

    I agree with the last statement for sure. But honestly, what would you be typing if they completely ignored the run game? Mayhew can't do anything right in your eyes. Ever. For the record, I like the 1st round pick, but don't love it. I really thought after trading down and getting Ramirez...

    Lions draft grades

    I don't understand how it's possible to quantify reach or good value when the draft is such an inexact science. Each of the 32 teams valuates players differently based on schematics, need, etc. It seems like Mayhew either drafts based on BPA, and gets torched for not filling needs, or he...

    The Official Round 1 Draft Thread

    This. If this is the guy they wanted, I'm good with the pick. The fact that they traded down to get him, got two more picks and a solid player on the cheap that can either be used for depth or perhaps as a starter while the youngsters at G and C come along is a bonus. I kind of wanted Brown...

    Nathan still the closer?

    Nathan needs to retire like yesterday. I hope he gets well soon. You need your right elbow to play golf.

    here we go again?

    I understand they logic behind declining Fairley's option. But this one baffles me entirely.

    First year fail. Rest of career TBD.

    The Ebron Pick

    I agree that the trade for Ngata was a good one. But your "logic" never ceases to amaze me. We didn't lose a 4th. We lost a 4th and 5th, and got a 7th back. If they have the same success rate, try trading a 7th for a 5th straight up.

    2015 Detroit Tigers salaries, options, and contract status

    This is good information. Thanks for posting it, because I don't have the patience for stuff like this. I do have a question. What about improvement? I realize that major leaguers by and large are older than their counterparts in other sports. The NFL is loaded with 22 and 23 year olds...

    Lions get Ngata in trade

    I agree, almost totally. The headache potential is still there, its just a different kind. If he screws up he's looking at a long suspension for substance abuse program. I am really happy about this move, though.

    Mlive blaming cap struggles on Millen

    Millen/losing/bad CBA put us in a bad position. Complete cap mismanagement has made that bad position worse. It's not as if we have two glorious playoff runs to show for it. We were one and done - twice. I'd trade both winning seasons for more steady progression and Suh with a manageable cap...

    Mortensen reporting Suh to Dolphins

    True wins are what's important. As an aside, I've tried applying this logic to my work hours. I pointed out to TPTB at work that even though I was only there for 19 actual hours last week, my true hours were 40. A variety of factors play into this equation: my fellow employee's failure to...
