DETROIT DRIVE-BYE

Tigers still getting by

2009-08-06T10:20:00.004-04:00

The Tigers are still managing to somehow stay a float in their division dispite their recent struggles on the road and at the plate. Hopefully they can get it together soon because the White Sox seem to be ready to leap over them. Which brings us to the video.

Click on the video to read the clip and learn more, the horse was ok with a few minor injuries.

Jordan vs. Bird

2009-07-28T15:45:00.003-04:00

I think we all remember the crazy McDonald's commercials from back in the day. Off the building, off the little baby, off the shot clock and so on. Well if you were to make a golf commercial of the sort this would be the one shot that would be played.

Lucky bastard! Hopefully with the Buick Open in town for the last time the golfers will be able to make some amazing shots for everyone to remember.

SHAQ ON RAW

2009-07-28T15:07:00.001-04:00

I saw this clip of Shaq on Raw last night and thought it was pretty funny. Jericho throws out a nice line when he brings up Kobe. Shaq is always so entertaining.

He Will Be Back

2009-07-28T10:01:00.004-04:00

Not Long after Michael Vick was released from home confinement he was conditionally reinstated to the NFL. NFL commissioner Roger Goddell announced yesterday that Vick will have the opportunity to be fully reinstated by week 6 of the season. It sounds like he wants to make sure he doesn't get into any trouble or nothing else surfaces like it did with Pac Man or Plaxico.

I for one am excited to see if Vick plays again. You can hate all you want on the guy, but you have to admit he is one of the most exciting football players we have been able to watch in the past 10 years. I believe he has served his time and deserves another chance. So this is the last you will hear about Vick the criminal from me (unless he does something else). When i mention Vick from now on it will be about football.

If you are interested in what ESPN's John Clayton has to say about Vick go HERE

Here is a clip of Vick that I call one of the best runs ever.

Classic Powerade commercial

Good Stuff

2009-07-24T22:54:00.003-04:00

Awesome day for the Tigers today sweeping the White Sox in a double header. Great game one by Verlander with a complete game giving up just 1 ER. There is no need to celebrate yet with 2 more versus Chicago this weekend then a 3 game set with the Rangers. The Tigers need to come out in these next 5 games with 4 wins and take control of the division.

I decided for the weekend to throw up some good videos to watch. So check them out.

Nut shots are always funny.

Lebron Gets Dunked On

2009-07-22T16:00:00.004-04:00

Finally the video of LeBron getting dunked on has surfaced. Heres the video, it looks just ok to me, nothing special.

Dog Days of Summer

2009-07-21T14:59:00.004-04:00

With sports news so slow right now it seems the football chatter has picked up right were it left off. Every fan across the country is getting there fantasy football picks for a draft over going over countless articles to get you just another day closer to the opening kick.

While going over some Michigan videos I managed to check out a few of the great Bo Schembechler. What a motivater he was. Even if you're not a UM fan he just had a way about him that anybody could appreciate as the head coach of a big time program. He really cared for his players and it showed back throughout his life and after his passing. They don't make em like they used to.

What A Catch?

2009-07-20T21:57:00.003-04:00

I saw this video and wanted to share it with everyone. This girl makes a pretty crazy catch. Now is is real or not? I think it is definitely possible, but it looks real to me. You be the judge.

Come On Now Pac-Man

2009-07-17T23:16:00.005-04:00

Well Adam Pac-Man Jones is back in the news again. It seems a video tape of Jones at the strip club the night 3 people were shot has surfaced.

Through out the video you can see how dumb Jones was acting. He is throwing around money and apparently was carrying around 40,000 dollars. The thing I noticed from the video is that ESPN says that the club manager tried to take Pac-Man's bag with all the money in it and he was one of the guys who got shot, and he is paralyzed from the waist down. Jones is going to testify against some guy he claims he saw shoot.

The more I hear about Pac-Man and the things he has done makes me believe he had more to do with the shooting then we know. If he was involved he will get caught and he deserves to get caught if he was.

I would love nothing more to believe Pac-Man when he says he is trying to lead an upstanding life. Now though I just don't know who to believe. We only know the person the media portrays, we don't know Jones as a person. That's why I am kind of torn to make a judgement.

Some cool things from the video though are Nelly, just cause he sang #1 and that's a bad ass song. Also Jermaine Dupri is in it, and i was like "I thought he fell off the face of the earth when Kriss Kross did". Dupri sure does seem to think he is a big shot in the video though.

Fantasy Football Advice

2009-07-15T10:13:00.003-04:00

With Fantasy Football right around the corner it got us at Detroit Drive-Bye wondering what we were going to do for our fans.

First we decided to make our own Fantasy Draft Cheat Sheet. The plan is to finish the Cheat Sheet and have it ready for anyone to print off by August 1st. Sometimes finding that easy to print Cheat Sheet is not that easy, and who wants to spend 8 dollars on a magazine now a days. So keep an eye out for it on here and we will have it up as soon as we finish.

The second thing we decided to do is offer our Fantasy Football advice. Draft questions, keeper questions, and sit or start questions. Pretty much anything you are looking for a second opinion on we will help you out. Both myself and K-Philly are very knowledgeable when it comes to Fantasy Football so anything you may want to know just e-mail one of us and we will give you a response within 24 hours. Just label the e-mail "Fantasy Advice". Our contact information is in the right collumn.

Feel free to contact us throughout the entire season because we know how it is when you have a couple players to decide on starting and just want a little advice.

Good luck to everyone in their Fantasy Drafts and we look forward to hearing from you.

Top Dunks Of 2009

2009-07-11T22:08:00.003-04:00

This is a top 10 video of the best dunks from the 2009 NBA season. It's a pretty good list but I think the dunk by Josh Smith at 6 is better the one they put at number 2. And the dunk by Westbrook at 10 is better then that. Of course LeBron got number 1, but it is a pretty impressive dunk just because the Hawks are pretty much pulling him down. The dunk I would like to see at number 1 is that dude from Xavier dunking on LeBron. That's right those tapes disappeared.

He Will Be Missed

2009-07-06T09:57:00.005-04:00

Another life was taken away too early this weekend when just retired NFL superstar Steve McNair was murdered in is apartment Saturday morning.

When I heard the news of his death I was shocked. As a kid Steve was one of my favorite players. From the time he joined the NFL his toughness and ability to win games on pure will drew me to respect and admire his game.

I remember being upset when the Titans lost the Super Bowl in 1999 because I wanted McNair, George and Kearse to get a ring. Steve was never able to get a ring, but he is one of those players who changed the game almost by himself.

McNair was just one of those NFL players that was just fun to watch. He will be missed by all who knew him and all those who knew of him. From everyone at Detroit Drive Bye our thoughts and prayers go out to the McNair family. Especially his 4 children and wife he had to leave so early.

I saw this video of McNair's retirement. It honestly gave me the chills listening to him talk about spending time with his family. A nice tribute.

New Guys in Town

2009-07-02T09:13:00.004-04:00

Not even 18 hours into NBA free agency the Piston's have landed 2 of the best available free agents. Ben Gordon and Charlie Villanueva.

It looks as though by signing these 2 that the Pistons may have to do some trading in the off season, but maybe not. Charlie is capable of taking Rasheed's spot and Gordon should be able to take on what A.I. couldn't do and that's come off the bench.

Both players are younger and add more athleticism to a Pistons team that was lacking the go to the hoop young guy's. Ben and Charlie were both on the 2004 UConn National Championship team and know how to play well together so that should help quite a bit.

So we are looking right now at a starting line-up like this: PG Stuckey, SG Hamilton, SF Prince, PF Villanueva, and C Kwame Brown. With new comers Gordon and Daye coming off the bench should actually improve the Pistons. If they are also able to re-sign McDyess then it just adds to the depth they already have.

I am not sure if this brings the Pistons back to the brink of the NBA finals again, but after last season this can only help.

Time For Change

2009-06-26T10:42:00.006-04:00

"Never again will I allow us to be in a position where we're dealing with issues, where we're dealing with drama." That is a statement made by Pistons GM Joe Dumars to the media after the pick Gonzaga's Austin Daye.

I was a little skeptical of the pick of Daye at 15 for the Pistons when I felt like they were lacking a true point guard and Ty Lawson and Jrue Holiday were still available. I guess I am still skeptical of the pick, but in Joe D we have to trust. The only problem I really have with Daye is he is very similar to Tayshawn Prince. Does this mean Prince may be going away soon? I hope not, of anyone on the current Piston's roster he caused the least amount of what Joe hates. Drama.

It was nice to hear Joe come out and say what he did. Last year's Pistons team was impossible to watch at times, and it was easy to tell they had no chemistry left. It was a good run for the past 6 years,but it is time for a change.

The Pistons used the 35th pick to get DaJuan Summers from Georgetown. I saw Summers play a couple of times this year and he is a very athletic kid with a lot of upside. With the 39th pick Detroit went with Jonas Jerebko from Italy. Don't know about the guy, but i don't like Joe's past of drafting foreign players. Detroit took Chase Buddinger with the 44th pick then traded him to Houston for a 2nd round pick next year.

I find it really hard to grade a team's draft class before any of the players have played an NBA game. It usually takes about 2-3 years before we really know for sure who the studs and busts were from the draft. If I had to give it a grade right now I would say a B. I give them a B because they did get younger upfront and that's what they wanted to do. And anytime a GM is able to do what he wants, then it is a good draft for now.

Here's a little highlight video of Austin Daye.

Diesel to the Cavs

2009-06-25T10:16:00.012-04:00

Well the horrible relationship between the Suns and Shaq is finally over. The 38 year old center has been traded to the Cavs in hopes of another title run with Lebron. The Cavs really didn't give up much for the future hall of famer, Ben Wallce and Sasha Pavlovic.

Sure this gives the Cavs even more star power than before, but is it enough for Lebron to get past the Magic, Celtics, and Heat come next year? I really think the Celtics may make a few moves before the season. With Danny Ainge being the man to make the changes you never know, years of being called the worst GM followed by a title after swinging deals for Allen and KG. We will see.

I don't see the Cavs winning next year once again, last I checked they were still located in Cleveland and we know they will find a way to blow it yet again.

The move for the Suns will free cap space for either a resigning of Amare or one of the big name free agents in the summer of 2010. I guess Shaq and Nash didn't get along at all, and one of them had to go.

With one of the worst draft classes in recent history being picked tonight this will still be the stroy of the day. Everyone knows Blake Griffin will be a Clipper and that is really all you need to know.

Maybe it's just me, but in recent years I have grown to detest the NBA and especially the finals. I can't stand watching player after player go to the line for tic tac calls and the refs trying to make a name for themselves. I used to be a big fan of the NBA when they let you put a body on somebody, but now it is so weak and lame. All you need to do is turn on the last two minutes of the game because you know it will be close for some strange reason? Hmmmm.........

I don't have an opinion of Shaq one way or the other but this clip is pretty good.

Also I saw this the other day. It is Norm MacDonald when he hosted the ESPYS awhile ago. Man that guy has some balls on him, but he is just putting out what a lot of people think but are afraid to say. It is a little longer clip but well worth the time. I still get a laugh at Griffey and Mark Messier being so offended by Norm, classic!

That's Awesome

2009-06-22T23:16:00.002-04:00

This kid from Ohio makes a sweet shot from the opposite free throw line. This is just remarkable.

Craziest Keyboard Cat Yet!!!

Maybe I am just nuts, but this video is hilarious.

Top 5 Idiot Wide Receivers of the NFL

2009-06-16T12:48:00.011-04:00

5). Plaxico Burress -

"Don't bring a knife to a gun fight", the old saying goes. This would hold up for most people on the Earth who understand a gun, Plaxico Burress would be that exception to the rule. How stupid did he feel after shooting himself in the leg? Plaxico has so much God given talent and barely seems to put much effort into getting better.

He never seems to show up for practice, yes PRACTICE, and if he is on your fantasy team you know how his status is doubtful for the entire season. Yet when he steps on the field he is a game changer and always seems to pull off some of the most amazing catches. You're a great player Plax, but an even bigger idiot for shooting yourself in the leg and probably getting some time in the pen for it.

4). Chad Johnson/Ocho Cinco -

On the field I can't get enough of his antics, but to change your name and still not be in the top 100 of jersey sales? I would have to get some serious $$$$ to change my name like I'm sure many others would. To also change your name to a number is just ridiculous, not surprising that Chad would be the one to do it. I could see Chad Fire breather or Chad Happy Feet, but to go with a number that you think is cool because it is in Spanish is lame and dumb in my book.

Chad also gets dumb points for his threats about not attending camp or holding out. Chad you're not a good enough player to act that way.

*Chad can get off of this list if he is able to get in the top ten of NFL jersey sales*

3). Matt Jones -

If only Matt Jones put as much into working on football and getting better as he did his criminal life he would be in Honolulu every year. Jones was drafted out of Arkansas to be a WR for Jacksonville, after he played QB in college. This was a shock to many who thought he was a risky pick, which it turned out to be.

Jones has had a rough year after being arrested last summer for felony possession of a controlled substance. Here is a little more from wikipedia:

The police found a plastic bag filled with six grams of a white substance that tested positive as cocaine and a jar with possible marijuana residue. Officers questioned Jones and he acknowledged the white powder was, in fact, cocaine, the report said.

Jones then went on to test positive for alcohol, violating his probation and putting his plea deal at risk.

Jones is so high on the list because he has to know that bringing drama to any team is only worth how good that player is, Jones is not worth any drama at this point.

2). Brandon Marshall -

3 years in the league and Marshall has become a familiar name for both his on and off field antics. Just yesterday Marshall demanded a trade from the Broncos after having surgery on his hip in March. Sure Brandon, teams are just lining up to take a guy who isn't at 100%, has been in trouble with the law for violent crimes, and seems to only care about himself.

OTL did a report on Marshall:

Here is a link to Brandon's Wiki page - LINK

It seems pretty crazy how much trouble he has been in and always seems to get a good plea deal out of it, the power of a good lawyer I guess. Here is one paragraph that caught my eye:

According to an article published in the Rocky Mountain News on July 28, 2008, Douglas County deputies fielded "about 11" calls to Marshall's home since January 2006. The article stated that one one call resulted in Marshall being arrested (the March 26, 2007 domestic dispute), and some did not involve him at all.[47]

Also calling out Joey Porter and not backing it up, isn't good for street cred.

I can imagine Marshall being one of the bigger superstars in the league if he is able to get around better people and able to control his temper. Until he realizes that and sees that he could be making more money if he falls in line and just stays out of trouble, he will continue to be number 2 on this list.

Also here is a link to the latest rumors on Marshall being traded - LINK

1). Donte Stallworth -

Just after signing a new contract Stallworth decided he needed to be some where in the early morning hours after a night of drinking. Sadly Stallworth hit a man who was trying to cross a busy street and catch a bus. He was then charged with Manslaughter.

Today he reached an agreement with both the court and family to avoid any future civil $uit. That means he lost a boat load of money in lawyers, to the victims family, and in wages.

Here is a recent article today on SI that details the terms of the agreement which are pretty tough and lengthy.

Stallworth will hopefully enjoy his freedom after the 30 days of jail because he sure paid a hell of a lot for it.

Hopefully all these players listed will have better days ahead of them and be able to make names for themselves in positive way going forward.

Hope you enjoyed the list and if there is somebody you think should be on this list please let me know in the comments.

A Tale of Two Horses

2009-06-15T10:06:00.010-04:00

With the basketball and hockey season coming to a close the sports world turns it's attention to the diamond. The Detroit Tigers currently are out in front by 3 games over the Twins in the Central Division. The Twins have one of the best managers in Ron Gardenhire who can play small ball with the best of them and always seems to be able to get his team to make a late push at the end of the season.

The Tigers are 6-4 in their last 10 games which isn't that great until you look at the other teams in the division who have played at or below .500 in their last 10. For the Tigers to continue to stay on top they will have to improve in both their offensive production and relief pitching/Willis.

The changes that Dave Dombrowski made in the off season seem to be working well up until this point of the season. Edwin Jackson, acquired in via trade, may be the best off season move by any team. He currently has a 6-3 record with an ERA of 2.24 (5th best in the Majors). Then you have the additions of SS Adam Everett and C Gerald Laird who have brought their experience and good defensive play with them. Add in the speedster that is Josh Anderson and the Tigers have a whole new dimension to their team when he is on base or in the outfield.

Then you have the main man Justin Verlander who is taking the mound tonight. Verlander looks to have finally made the next step in his career after a few rough outings to start the season. He was the pitcher of the month for the AL in April and currently has a 7-2 record with an ERA of 3.02 (18th best in the Majors), which has been inflated because of the few bad starts. Verlander is making a run for the Cy Young along with Zach Grienke of the Royals and Roy Halladay.

There is also the Magglio Ordonez situation. If the Tigers play him X number of games this year they will also be on the hook for 17 million next year. To put it mildly Ordonez is not putting up numbers worth 17 million. There has been rumors of a release and them going after Adam Dunn, which I think would be a great move. I really like Ordonez but this is a business and the smart move to do, with how much attendance has fallen and the current economic conditions, would be to let him go unless he really turns it up in the coming weeks.

The Tigers will need to keep getting brilliant performances from both Jackson and Verlander to stay on top. Mix in the good outings by Rick Porcello and they have a great 1-2-3 combo along with the 4th best fielding percentage in the league at .989, and the Tigers should still be there at the end to battle with the Twins.

And because I haven't put up any funny videos lately here is a recap of some of the better ones over the past week.

NBA CHAMPS

2009-06-15T08:27:00.002-04:00

I am a Detroit fan through and through, but there is one team that I follow almost as much as the Pistons in the NBA and that is the LA Lakers. I have always been a fan of LA since Kobe came into the league and today we have to give Kobe his props.

A lot of people said Kobe couldnt win with out a Shaq, but last night Kobe proved them all wrong. Congratulations to Phil Jackson on title number 10 also.

There was one thing that bothered me from them game and it was when it already ended and I think it was Mike Turico who said that "Derrick Fisher may not be a Hall of Famer but it important to this Laker team." I thought that was crap, if Robert Horry is considered a Hall of Famer then why not Fisher. Both players had great players to play with but both have also made huge shots that have helped guide there team to an NBA championships.

Either way Congrats to the Lakers and the city of LA on their 15th NBA championship.

Here is a clip of the celebration.

Love this Cat!!!

2009-06-10T12:06:00.003-04:00

I don't know about the rest if you but I hate the stupid Brett Michaels shows on vh1. So when I heard that idiot broke his nose at the MTV awards I laughed. Then I saw the video of the accident with the greatest cat around and laughed even harder.

Almost Time

2009-06-08T10:52:00.002-04:00

I know the NBA and NHL finals are both still going on right now but to me it seems both those series are already over. The Wings will probably close out Pittsburgh in game 6 Tuesday and the Lakers now with a 2-0 lead will probably win in 4 or 5.

So with hockey and basketball about to come to an end it got me to thinking about some fantasy football. I am very excited for fantasy football because I have Matt Forte in 2 keeper leagues and I expect a lot out of him this year.

So I found a video of some insight for next season and I thought you guys may enjoy it, cause it's never too early to start talking fantasy football.

Cry Baby Crosby

2009-06-01T11:04:00.002-04:00

The Wings have started this Stanley Cup just like they did last year winning the first 2 games at home. Another convincing win, and another Crosby crying show.

The Wings went down 1 in the first period but rebounded to score 3 unanswered goals throughout the rest of the game. The one thing that makes me mad about game 2 is the fact that Malkin got an instigator penalty which should be an automatic 1 game suspension, but of course the NHL loves Pitt and would not let them lose there best player for game 3.

Kudos to Zetterberg for beating the crap out of Malkin after Malkin came at him with his stick (I guess the NHL didnt see that).

Game 3 is tomarrow and Detroit plays good on the road, I am predicting a 4-2 Detroit win and 2 boxes of tissues for Crosby's tears at the end of the game.

Rematch

2009-05-28T13:28:00.003-04:00

The Red Wings took out the Blackhawks in OT last night. Helm came through big last night with the game winner and with some excellent penalty kill. Now its time to focus on the Penguins. Game one starts Saturday with game two Sunday.

I don't really expect a much different outcome from last years finals. I believe the Wings are better then last year and the Penguins have not changed much at all with the exception of losing arguably their best player from last year Hossa.

I am going to predict the Wings in 5. I think the overall skill on Detroit is just way too much for Crosby and friends.

THE CAT IS BACK

Memories

2009-05-21T21:18:00.003-04:00

I'm getting excited about Madden 2010 coming out in August, but it got me to thinking about some of the old school football games I enjoyed as a kid. Check out these videos, maybe they will bring back memories for you too.

My personal All-Time favorite Tecmo Super Bowl

Fun game, better commercial

Gotta love good old Madden 95

Give him another shot!

2009-05-20T12:46:00.003-04:00

Michael was released from prison to serve the remainder of his sentence from his home due to the over crowdedness of Virginia prisons.

Vick still needs to get reinstated by the commish, but I believe he deserves another shot to play in the NFL. Many people everyday are released from prison with the hope of having a second chance in society. Michael did the time he was sentenced to and now deserves another chance to do what he is good at. That is being an NFL quarterback.

I know a lot of people will disagree with me, but as someone who has been through the legal system, I believe everyone deserves a second chance but maybe not a third or forth. We will have to wait and see what happens in this story over the summer. Hopefully everyone that has hated Vick so much since the dog fighting can look past it and understand he has served his punishment. And hopefully Vick has turned a new leaf and is ready to be a new man.

Game 1: Easy

2009-05-17T22:31:00.006-04:00

Well game 1 of the Wings Blackhawks series went just about how I thought it would. The game really wasnt close and I never got as nervous as I did during any of the games against Anaheim. Detroit won 5-2 and Chicago tried to play a wide open game which really favors Detroit. But how about Dan Cleary, after finishing the last series with the game 7 winner, he adds 2 goals against Chicago today.

The series should only take 5 games I believe. Chicago may steal one at home but I dont think you will see anymore then that. Go Wings!

On a side note the Tigers are looking good this weekend. After a rough series with the Twins the Tigers bounced back with a 3 game sweep of Oakland and moved back a top the Central Division.

Hey Stand Right There

2009-05-17T11:06:00.003-04:00

So your telling me that there are people who have seen Charles Barkley swing a golf club and yet stand in front of him before he does it? This just shows that even with the money to have Tigers golf coach, some people just aren't cut out for certain sports although they may be a hall of famer in another.

The fun ensues now

UPDATE: Now Tiger can show us what it looked liked from the side

Keyboard Cat So You Know

2009-05-14T14:34:00.003-04:00

Ok, so the debate will be settled tonight about if Datsyuk is better than Ovechkin. Ovechkin did at least have a goal but once again he needs more around. If Datsyuk scores the winning or any goal that leads to a victory he will then be put above Alex on the totem poll of NHL players.

The Wings will need to make sure to skate like they can because they will then get the penalties and chances to take out the ducks. They can't get into the crap after the plays and muck it up, that's what the Ducks want them to do because it brings them down to their level.

Maybe in the end it will be the guy who is overshadowed by everyone but keeps bringing his lunch pal to Joe Louis. The same guy who has been the blue collar worker on other championship teams and still has some blue workers in the Motor City playing him down. Yes Chris Osgood it is time for you to shut them up again, granted he is 1-3 in game sevens, but he has been here before and will be the difference maker in this one. Will be fun to show them once again why you should go to the HOF.

Ok now for keyboard cat. The cat is put into videos to make things funny when they otherwise might not be. You will be seeing more of him as it eventually encompasses the inter webs with the force of the Swine Flu. Here is an example:

Be prepared to get to know keyboard cat if you already don't.

Who's Better?

2009-05-11T20:34:00.008-04:00

I was with a couple friends the other night watching some hockey when the two of them starting arguing over who is better, Ovechkin or Datsyuk?

I personally think that Ovechkin is better right now just by numbers. I think Datsyuk is awesome also, so I am kind of torn. Ovechkin is way better offensively, but Datsyuk is way better defensively. Ovechkin is just OK on defense, but Datsyuk is pretty damn good on offense.

If you look at it from a offensive/defensive stand point then the two are pretty even. When you look at it from a points stand point Ovechkin is way better. Just over these playoffs Ovechkin has 10 goals and 7 assists in just 11 games, while Datsyuk has 1 goal and 3 assists through 9 games.

I see so many different point of views on this argument and I really don't know which way to lean sometimes. That is when I realized how dumb an argument it is. Ovechkin carries his whole team while Datsyuk is not asked to do that, so until Datsyuk has to carry a team and win by himself then we can't compare. Not to take anything away from Datsyuk but he has much better supporting cast then Ovechkin.

If Datsyuk concentrated on scoring then he could possibly be known as one of the best scorers ever, but that's not who Datsyuk is. He is probably going to spend his career in Detroit and never have so little talent around him that he would have to do that. And if Ovechkin concentrated on being better defensively then I would bet he could be known as one of the best defensive forwards. He wont get that opportunity either cause Washington needs him to score to win.

If you got an opinion about it give us a comment. If you are still torn check out these videos to compare.

We are hopefully about to begin a new era of the Detroit Lions. We have all been just disappointed during the Matt Millen era, but Millen did one thing right during his tenure here. He drafted Calvin Johnson. We hope Calvin is here for many years, but that all depends on how things progress over the next few years. I put a few videos of Megatron up here for all of you. Enjoy!

Here's the best play of the 2008 season for Detroit.

LOUIS DELMAS

Louis Delmas??

2009-04-25T21:16:00.003-04:00

I thought this year was going to be different. I thought this draft was going to be the one to turn it around for Detroit. I was wrong! The worst defensive team in the NFL did not help themselves at all on that side of the ball. For some stupid reason the Lions passed on Rey Malaluga twice and took Brandon Pettigrew at 20 and some safety from Western Michigan named Louis Delmas at 33. I was shocked when they drafted both guys over Rey. The Lions did nothing today to improve their team. It is going to be another long season next year. I would swear Matt Millen is still making picks for this team. This has been one of the saddest days I can remember as a Detroit Lions fan. It almost seems like the Lions organization is just laughing at us fans. I don't think I can take this crap anymore from them. Overall I am giving them a D+ for a draft grade. The only reason its not an F is because Stafford isn't a bust yet.

Stafford's a Lion!!

2009-04-24T23:39:00.004-04:00

The Detroit Lions have made their decision on the number 1 pick. Quarterback from Georgia Matt Stafford is now a Detroit Lion. He signed a 6 year 78 million dollars deal with 42 million guaranteed. I want to complain about the choice but the pick is already made and I now have to hope Stafford is in that 40th percentile of Quarterbacks that are drafted early and succeed. Coming from the same high school as Bobby Lane gives me a little hope. I have seen some bright spots in Stafford's game, but he still has a lot of work to do if he is going to become a Pro Bowl caliber quarterback. The Lions still have 2 more picks in the next 32, so I will be rooting for defense from here on out. Well Detroit.....Lets welcome Matt Stafford.

Remember Penny

2009-04-21T21:29:00.005-04:00

I don't know about anyone else out there, but for me growing up Anfernee "Penny" Hardaway was one of my favorite players. I was watching the Magic blow the game to the 76ers the other night and I noticed a fan wearing a Penny jersey and it just brought back some great memories. Check out these videos, I'm sure you'll like them.

This is Classic Shaq & Penny

2009-04-17T21:33:00.002-04:00

I know I have been hard on Matt Stafford, but after seeing this video I was impressed. I Still don't know if he is what Detroit needs, but more stunts like this and I may consider not being that mad when they draft him.

NFL DRAFT TIME

2009-04-15T20:47:00.002-04:00

The NFL Draft is now just 10 days away. Here in Detroit there is a lot of debate over who should be the number 1 pick. There are people who want the Lions to take Matt Stafford to try and have the Matt Ryan success of last year. What a lot of people don't understand is the Falcons picked up a lot of help for him in the last off season, and not only that but if you look at the games the Falcons lost last year they were against good defense's and Ryan couldn't handle a better then average defense. Mark my words when I say, "Matt Ryan's rookie year was a fluke." So Lions please don't draft Stafford, I just don't see a winner in him.

There are only 2 other choices for Detroit, and both of them I have no problem with. First is offensive tackle Jason Smith from Baylor. He is a real solid lineman and I would love to see him wear the Detroit Honolulu blue. Now if I was making the pick I would draft Linebacker Aaron Curry out of Wake Forest. Some people say we need a middle linebacker now and Curry plays outside so it wouldn't work. I say our defense was ranked 32nd last year and if Curry is the best defensive player available this year then go get him.

If Detroit decides to go the Stafford route then there will be some good available defensive players at the 20th pick also. But wouldn't it be nice to maybe take Curry at 1 and then Rey Maualuga at 20. If they did that then Detroit would be on their was to having a top tier defense.

Anyway you look at for Detroit this year is going to be tough. The schedule came out this week and win number 1 this year may not come til about week 8. Hopefully the Lions see that quarterback is not what we need now and we need to build from the inside out first. But it is the Lions so I can almost picture it now...... With the number 1 pick in the 2009 Nfl draft, the Detroit Lions select...Michael Crabtree, wide receiver Texas Tech. I'm just kidding, but if it happened I wouldn't be shocked.

Spring Game

2009-04-11T15:45:00.003-04:00

Here is a clip of a TD run by Carlos Brown during today's spring game for the Wovlerines

Sounded like it was a great time and about 40,000 fans or so were there with a huge supply of great recruits as well. Hopefully the weekend will lead to a few commitments and turn the event into something everyone really looks forward to.

Also from what I've gathered Tate Forcier was tearing it up and still impressing. Throwing some great balls and a few TDs the offense looked very different from last years. Even though it is a scrimmage, it shows that he is able to do what was advertised and gives me faith that RR is doing things right.

Why So Mad Miguel?

2009-04-10T19:08:00.005-04:00

I hope those balls Miguel Cabrera keeps crushing get a nice resting stop on a mantle somewhere so they can recover from reentry. In his first 5 games this year he has managed to hit .611 with 3 HRs and 10 RBIs while helping the Tigs lick their wounds from the first series against Toronto. At this pace Cabrera could become the all time leader in HRs and has only a career average of .320!! Most power hitters are known for their all or nothing power but Cabrera breaks that mold and seems to be able to put the ball in play with every at bat.

GM of the Tigers (Dave Dombrowski) has received criticism in the past few years as the Tigers have not lived up to their billing and players such as Jurgens blossoming into a great player. Yeah that sucks, but how do you quantify that against the acquisition and long term contract of 25 YEAR OLD sure fire Hall-of-Famer who may end up with some of the greatest numbers of all time?

As long as Cabrera keeps putting this team on his back and staying in the division race, Dombroski won't have to think about those bad decision's. He can sit tight knowing that yeah he made some bad choices, but damn it how many other GMs can say they acquired a player as young and talented as Cabrera coming into his prime?

The best is yet to come Detroit.

Time for the beards

2009-04-09T09:53:00.007-04:00

With the playoffs right around the corner and the Wings starting to shape up into playoff form, so do the playoff beards. This just tells you what type of people hockey players are. Sure the Spurs do it in the NBA but are they constantly getting stitched up for a puck to the face or rubbed all over by a sweaty glove? No, that shit is tough, I can't even think about shaving if I let my hair grow out for more than three days without a few tears shimmering down my check and these guys are getting 15 stitches and right back in the next period?

Ah but I'm not here to talk about just beards, the Red Wings are also going to make another run at Lord Stanley this year with a chance at back to back titles. For me the only other sport that is harder to go back to back is the NFL, but hockey playoffs still provide some great upsets and no team is safe. No, not even the Wings.

It is pretty easy to look at what it will take for the Red Wings to win again, goal tending and defense. These both have been the focal points of worry by fans and myself. I do however see the wings getting into the swing of things at just the right time. Even before a game the captain Nick Lidstrom said he thought this team was in better shape than at the same time last year.

With Hossa, Franzen, Zetterberg, Daytsuk, and many other offensive threats the Wings will be able to score. The outcome of the game however will largely depend on how the defense plays.

In short, with the coach we have and leaders who have gone through the beards for so many years now the Wings will have more than enough to get a consecutive title. It won't be easy and there will surely be a hot goaltender or two who give them a difficult time. Osgood will step up and show that once again the fans can talk and talk, but he will do it with his play.

Does it ever get old? And to think the Great One gave it away to the Captain

UNC Wins it

2009-04-06T23:50:00.003-04:00

It wasn't much of a game to start with. UNC just dominated from the beginning. They set a Final Four record scoring 55 points in the first half. Ty Lawson set a tournament record with 8 steals, 7 in the first half. The second half MSU never got closer then 13. UNC won 89-72 to capture their fifth National Title. With MSU having 21 turn overs its almost impossible for any team to over come that and win. Wayne Ellington took the tournament's most outstanding player trophy. It was a good ending for a UNC class that came back to win a championship. It was also a good run for MSU, they just got beaten by a better team today.

Michigan's Time

2009-04-06T12:48:00.007-04:00

Tonight is the National Title game and Michigan is excited. Even us U of M fans are excited for the Spartans tonight, and most of us are rooting for them. We root for them because its not just about MSU, its about Michigan. The Final Four has brought a lot of excitement to the area, and win or lose for MSU tonight, it is still a win for the state of Michigan.

I have a feeling if MSU wins tonight I may get a sensation of the chills. Something I never thought I would feel from my rivals in green. So the time is now for MSU, no longer are they playing just for their fan base and alumni, they are playing for every single one of us that has been brought down even just a little in the state of Michigan. GO STATE!!!!!!!!!

Big East Who?

2009-04-05T11:55:00.004-04:00

Michigan State did what most ESPN analysts said was the impossible and pulled off a 82-73 upset of supposed powerhouse UConn. It was a great game to watch. It was very physical and I thought the refs did a good job. But the best moment came when MSU's Durral Summers dunked on UConn's Stanley Robinson. It was an awesome in your face dunk. By far I found it to be so far the play of the tournament. Now up next for MSU is UNC. I almost feel like it may be destiny for MSU to win, but the UNC players have so much NBA talent on there team, and most of there players came back this year to do one thing. Win a championship. Its is going to be real tough for State, but you never know in the tournament.

Check the dunk out again, its worth watching over and over.

The Time is Here

2009-04-03T23:51:00.005-04:00

Well the Final Four is now set to tip off tomorrow night. The first game will be Michigan State and UConn. Even though I would like to see Michigan State lose because of the blue in me. I do kind of have a soft spot for them right now because of the excitement of them being in the Final Four has brought to the area. I am still torn on who i will be rooting for in that game. The second game of UNC and Villanova I am just rooting for a close game, because UNC has a good chance of running away with that one early. Hopefully both the games tomorrow are classic tournament games that come down to the wire. Should be a good night of basketball.

Go Ahead & Retire

2009-04-02T20:45:00.003-04:00

When the Pistons traded for Allen Iverson many people including myself thought that Joe D made another good move. Since the trade we have all been proven wrong. For the Pistons to work as a team the best option is for Iverson to come off the bench. After a few games coming off the bench, this is what Iverson had to say to reporters last night.

“I’m in a position now that I’ve never been in my whole life,” Iverson said. “It’s harder than I thought it would be. With the back injury, I have to sit out at the start, then go in, then sit again. It’s tough to really get going. I take my hat off to the guys who can come off the bench and be effective. It’s tough for me. I’m struggling with it.”
“I’d rather retire before I do this again,” Iverson said. “I can’t be effective playing this way. I’m not used to it. It’s tough for me both mentally and physically. If I’m able to go out there, I should be able to get it done and I can’t right now. It’s my fault. I have to be able to overcome the adversity and do what I have to do. I just have to find a way to get it done. Not being 100 percent makes it harder and you can see that I’m not 100 percent.”

Well the way I see it is. Go ahead and retire then Allen. If your still injured then we don't want you to start. And if the injury is that bad then why did you come back? All I know anymore about Iverson is I don't care. He is a selfish player who only looks out for himself. I really wish things could have worked out for him in Detroit, but he continues to be difficult to deal with wherever he plays. He is not the same 27 year old superstar he used to be. Eventually he needs to understand it takes a team to win.

After these comments hopefully Iverson is done as a Piston. Rumor has it that the Pistons are looking to bring Sheed of the bench too. I hope the Pistons are just tanking the last few games to try and make the draft lottery rather then the playoffs. There is no way the Pistons will win anything this year. They have a better chance of winning the draft lottery then winnings a 1st round playoff series. I know Joe D has big plans for the upcoming summer. With all the cap space the Pistons will have available after this year it shouldn't be long before they return back to a powerhouse in the East again.

Who Knows

2009-04-02T14:48:00.004-04:00

No one seems to know where Jay Cutler is going to end up. I would personally love it if he was to get traded here to Detroit. The problem is there are many teams that seem to be in the running to get him. The one team that bugs me is the Redskins. How do they always seem to be in the mix for everyone. They have already loaded up for next year this off season, so i don't understand where they seem to keep finding money. The other teams interested are the Jets, Bucs, Bears, and a long shot Panthers. All the teams have a chance since they all have a decent first round pick, and that may be all it takes to get Cutler. They will probably have to throw in a second round pick too. With the picks them Lions have they could easily get Cutler if there willing to give up the 20th pick and there early second round pick. I really hope the Lions make a good effort going after Cutler, and from what I have heard on the TV and radio lately they are trying to keep themselves in the running. It would be a nice start to the Swartz era to land Cutler, and if the Broncos are actually mad at Cutler for acting the way he has, then there is no better revenge for the Broncos then to send Cutler to the worst NFL team of all time, the Detroit Lions.

Why will UM make it to the Elite Eight next year?

2009-03-31T20:01:00.006-04:00

I can give you two very solid reasons, Sims and Harris, but the real reason I believe the basketball program will keep moving forward and not regress is 2009 commit Darrius Morris. He is a 6'3 point guard out of California and rated as the 75th (in that area) player overall by rivals.com. He seems to be very quick and explosive. He also led his team to a State Championship title this year.

With him, 6'10 PF Blake McLimans, 6'8 PF Jordan Morgan, and 6'4 SG Matt Vogrich coming in next year I really see the bench and inside game getting that much better. Add to that Manny Harris who works out as hard as they come to get better in the offseason and Sims not having to do everything down low by himself and this team is going to be great to watch in the tough Big Ten.

Only video of Jordan Morgan I could find

I will predict it right now: Elite Eight in 2010

A Short Break

2009-03-30T22:28:00.008-04:00

While we await Tigers opening day, the Final Four, and the Pistons and Red Wings playoffs we have kind of a couple days off from sports. I was recently searching the web when I ran across this picture of Old Tiger Stadium. At first I thought what a beautiful picture it was. Then the more i looked at it the more I realized the picture is really sad. The stadium is now left with just a corner of it standing. That's when it hit me that Tiger Stadium is Detroit.

If you look at it there are many similarities between the two. Both the stadium and the city have been falling apart for years. They both are just a small part of what they used to be. But the biggest thing they share is the need of money to stay alive. If the auto industry(more specifically GM and Chrysler) doesn't get another loan its probably not going to be long before there gone. And if the Stadium doesn't get the 15.5 million it needs to be preserved then its going to be gone soon too. I guess all good things must come to an end at some point, but neither one of these needs to be now. I really wish people not from Michigan could see the way the recession has effected us. Over 11% unemployment rate right now and climbing. There is no work here without the auto industry, it literally drives the city and state.

I guess I get frustrated when these politicians go on TV and say screw the auto industry because it doesn't affect their state. The Pledge of Allegiance says "one nation". Doesn't that mean anything anymore? We as Americans need to help each other out no matter what industry it is. No one should have to lose their job because the company they work for couldn't get some help. Everyone needs help at one point or another. We seem to give everyone else money to stay alive. So why not the auto industry? I'm really not sure why.

All we can do now is hope for the best and prepare for the worst, because I hate saying it but I believe the worst is yet to come.

Welcome to Detroit

2009-03-29T19:36:00.004-04:00

The Final Four is now set, and to my relief Blake Griffin will not be a part of it. I must also eat my words a little cause I said MSU wouldn't make it, and they sure proved me wrong. MSU is going to have a tough time beating UConn, but the way they have played lately and the home crowd behind them, I would not be shocked if MSU won it all. The other game is North Carolina versus Villanova. Hopefully a good game, but I think UNC is way too good for a small Villanova team. So even though my predictions have not been right lately I am still going to throw my two cents at this one. I like MSU playing UNC in the national title game and even though I would love to see a championship for the state of Michigan right now, I just think UNC is too good.
MSU 67 UNC 79

I was a little upset after watching Michigan lose to Oklahoma the other day and maybe my post had a little bit of anger in it. And for that I apologize. Now tonight I just finished watching Oklahoma blow out Syracuse on there way now to the Elite Eight and what Blake Griffin did at the end hitting his head on the backboard was pretty sweet. I will give the guy some credit cause he is a great college basketball player, but i still dont see him doing anything in the NBA. Anyway I still liked the dunk so i put it on youtube. Check it out.

And the wait begins......

2009-03-24T15:29:00.005-04:00

With Michigan out of the tourney most of my attention turns to football and getting hyped up as much as I can over the next eight months or so. Yeah I will be all for the Tigers getting things together if their pitching can somehow manage it, but the King of Kings is Football.

I managed to check out a few new highlights of Tate Forcier from his season that were recently put up, this kid is something. I know it is easy to get hyped up for any freshmen QB coming into a program and having to take it over from day one, but this kid has only kept on building his hype since he arrived early. From what I've heard on boards and coaches he is throwing as accurately as advertised. Hitting WRs right on the button.

Click here to check them out. They are worth it. First highlight is of him leading his team down the field on a fourth quarter drive with only minutes left to win the game. Also search around the site to find out more about the future Heisman, haha!

One thing to keep in mind while watching some of his H.S. highlights is where he is able to place the ball compared with how the defense is playing at the time. He seems to always put the ball in the right position for the WR to either plant their foot and make a move, be protected from a huge hit and catch it, or right on the hands in front of the WR to continue without losing stride. Yes Forcier played in somewhat of a not so great league and has been called a midget by some. If he is able to improve at all and catch up to the speed at which the college game is played, dare I say better than a Henne fresh year? I do, and it will happen.

Already found a screenshot and some heads up on the new Madden game as well from my cousin. It is the same fluff piece before any Madden and it will get you pumped and want it now, let's just hope they get it right. Link here

Zebras Run The Game

2009-03-21T20:05:00.007-04:00

I love how the NCAA referees treat Blake Griffin like he is Michael Jordan. It was obvious to tell that the NCAA wanted Oklahoma to advance in the tournament. The refs were not calling an even game. They had no problem putting Michigans best players in foul trouble early and throughout the game, but when it came to Oklahoma they could do no wrong. I am so pissed about that game. If Oklahoma would have won with an even called game then I wouldnt complain, but that was just bullshit. So whatever I guess the NCAA got their wet dream of Oklahoma in the Sweet 16. There is always next year for the Wolverines, but this game should have been alot closer then the final score indicated. As far as Griffin goes, he is one of the dirtiest players I have seen since Charles Oakley. He is a piece of crap player that will only be good in college. Go to the NBA Griffin and you will be the next Shawn May anyways.

Hell Yeah Manny!!

2009-03-20T23:11:00.004-04:00

What a game Michigan put us fans through on the opening night of the tourney. No matter how ugly the game may have been down the stretch for Michigan, i will take a tournament win any day over pretty play. Michigan should have wrapped the game up with a few minutes to go in the game, instead the Michigan players kept going for the knockout 3 ball and let Clemson get right back in it. I give clemson alot of credit for fighting hard when they could have easily just conceited defeat down 15 points with 5 minutes left in the game. Clemson fought back and got within 2 points when Manny Harris got aggressive and drove the lane for a good old fashioned 3 point play with just seconds left to help Michigan get there first NCAA tournament win in 11 years. Manny came up big with 23 points 7 rebounds and 6 assists. Lately Sims has been the man for Michigan, but with just 9 points and 3 rebounds against Clemson, it was on Manny's shoulders to carry the load for Michigan. So now Michigan will face the nation's best player in Blake Griffin and the Oklahoma Sooners. They will need alot better performance from Sims this game if they hope to contain Griffin and the Sooners. Hopefully the local man know as Grand Blanc Pride or Zack Gibson can give fits to Griffin on defense and Sims can regain some late season form on offense. So if Michigan can get another great game from Manny and maybe some help from Sims and contain Griffin, then they got a chance.
Prediction: Michigan 73 Oklahoma 65

Making Moves

2009-03-18T00:29:00.004-04:00

Well the Lions finally have made there first big move of this offseason. With the Lions sending Cory Redding and this years 5th round pick to Seattle for Julian Peterson. Overall is seems to be a good trade for Detroit. It gives the Lions a leader on defense and a leader in the locker room. Peterson may be on his way down in his career, but he is still better then anything the Lions have now. Also, getting rid of Redding was a good thing since he was the most overpaid defensive lineman ever (thanks Millen). I think this may affect the upcoming draft. With getting Peterson the Lions may stay away from Aaron Curry. Hopefully the Lions dont waste the 1st pick on a QB. If they dont want Curry, then they should work on improving the offensive and defensive lines. Maybe the Lions will get lucky enough that Jay Cutler will piss off the Broncos so much they trade him to Detroit, but i know the Lions and they are not that lucky.

It was a big day for anticipation for all Michigan fans on Sunday during the NCAA Selection Show. And of course the show decided to make Michigan fans wait til the end to hear their spot in the tournament. A number 10 seed for Michigan, and playing the number 7 seed Clemson Tigers. Should be a good matchup for Michigan as long as they can shoot like we know they can. And with the two studs Manny Harris and Deshawn Simms playing well as of late I wouldnt be surprised to see a second round upset of Oklahoma. Overall I am expecting another memorable NCAA tournament, hopefully with Michigan making some noise. So my picks for the final four are Louisville (sorry Sparty, no hometown final four for you), Memphis, Pitt, and North Carolina. I like Pitt winning the National Championship against Louisville.

I know the pistons have been playing a little bit better lately, but how do they beat Orlando twice, beat Boston, and yet lose to Atlanta and the Knicks. Even though it has been a real up and down year for the pistons, there has been one bright spot...Walter Hermann. What else can you say about this guy other then just entertaining. He may not be able to jump, he may not be real coordinated, but he makes up for all of it with some good old fashioned hustle.

Yeah they are pretty bad these days? Don't worry too much though. Joe Dumars probably didn't think things would go this bad, but it is a long term plan he had in the first place. Like everything and everyone these days they want change and right away and if that doesn't happen, dispite being a long term plan, everyone has a bitchfest. I'm willing to take a beating for a year or two if it does result in getting two big Free Agents, as everyone is hoping. Just don't be suprised if it doesn't happen.

Yes there will be a load of FA's but if you take a look back at history it will show you that maybe 20% or so of those big name FA's will sign with another team. A big reason has to do with the more money a player is able to make in resigning with his team. Compare that to getting less money and having to move to another location. I do trust that Joe D is a capable enough GM to get the job done and the Pistons will be back battling in the confernce finals once again. I know it is hard to wait but do we really want more years of being the Conference Final losers? Or do we go out and get guys like Bosh, Boozer, Manu, or Amare Stoudamire who can bring back the attitude of "Going to Work"?

We will sadly have to keep praying for this year and hope that this plan is what was needed to bring back the Pistons to elite status in the NBA.

Cool vid my friend got of the Pistons game the other night.

Yeah I've been slacking for the past month taking a little break from my usual couple post a week or so. Between the Lions, Fantasy Football, and even the Wolverines this has been a couple of the longest months of football in a long time. So while I lick my wounds from this year and get ready to ramble on with other post that don't mean shit again, here are some videos I have collected since the last time you visited good ol Joey.

Don’t know if you saw this on NFL network or not.

Man people are starting to recruit them as soon as they start walking. This little kid is pretty sweet though if you haven’t seen him yet.

Ouch! Watch closely as a guy tries to catch a ball during batting practice and misses, the ball then takes a big bounce right back into his face.

Nothing like using a smoke machine for the home team to come out to except when it might be just a little too much and they start to run into the field goal post.

Tough Times

2008-10-10T12:19:00.005-04:00

Very tough times right now for Detroit fans unless your a Sparty fan.

UM is still going through the growing pains of a new coaching regime. They are still pulling in great recruits who are getting offers from major programs. I just really hope they can stop putting the ball on the ground as the year goes.

The Wings lost last night while raising the banner. They looked a little sloppy out there but I think it has to do with many of the players not getting time with each other on the ice in preseason due to injuries. They will be fine and everyone knows there is two seasons in hockey and by the time the playoffs come the team should be looking pretty good.

Then you have the Lions. I hope to see Stanton this weekend but because he has missed so much time with his broken hand/finger I don't think he needs to just get thrown out there. They really have a good shot at going 0-16 this year. I just really hope they get a new GM within the next few months and start to blow up the team. I also hope they don't spend their first round pick on a QB, RB, or WR next year. I really hope Lions fans understand that to build a team it starts with the trenches. I'm sure I will still see the stupid post everywhere of how they should take Tebow or Daniels with their pick. It never fails to amaze me how stupid some Lions fans are when it comes to building a team and what it takes.

Should be a great game for MSU this weekend to prove to everyone that Coach D is tunring the corner with them If they take out Northwestern it will really show everyone they are not the Sparties of old. Also I predict Ringer to have 220 yards and 3 TDs.

Make sure to watch some of the baseball playoffs as well. There are very good teams out there and it is always fun to cheer on Manny because people hate him so much. I would really like to see him face off against the Red Sox and beat them, but it seems the Phillies and Pat Burrell are going to make that very tough.

Have a good weekend and good luck to your fantasy team unless your playing me.

Fitzgerald Toussaint is another great RB coming to Michigan next year. I actually think he will be better than Shaw or McGuffie, yes I said it.

(Language NSF) These guys talk smack and fight a little then at the end the guy keeps talking and gets blown out! Make sure you watch until the end, that’s when the guy brings the pain big time (Just click on the video and it will play, it was the only way I could put it up)

Just because you walked away from the first fight doesn't mean you should run your mouth. Look at his face now!

Nothing like the spirit of Lions fans, it’s just sad that the team isn’t as passionate.

Couldn't of said it better myself

Lions Fire Millen When He's 3-0???

2008-09-26T14:13:00.004-04:00

Thought I would take a quick screen shot of foxsport.com after they broke the Millen firing. Pretty funny that out of all the things they would get wrong it would be Millen not having a single loss on his record.

As I'm sure all the Lions fans are thrilled but it will still take at least two years if the Ford's can finally get the right guy in here. Until there is more on the search for GM or anything of substance from the Lions on the field I won't bring everyone down off their high from the firing of Mr. Millen with more Leo talk.

On to Michigan. A lot of talk this week about UM still taking it to the Badgers despite the ranking of the Badgers and recent loss to the Domers by Michigan. I'm a huge M fan but I just don't see it happening, sorry. Every time I want to convince myself that UM can do it I think about our QBs who can only throw 5 yard passes, and it still is shaky. You just can't win in the kind of offense RR runs until you get dual threat QBs in there to keep the defense honest. You never know though, I'm pretty sure their was a big upset last night so college football continues to be college football!!

I really hope they pull it off and if RR is really all he is supposed to be (I think he is) then he will again have the offense playing better then the previous weeks. Just keep your hands on the ball freshmen.

Time for a little MSU talk. Javon Ringer is a BEAST. Man I love watching him run for the Sparties. The problem that many think this may cause is that he is getting 40 carries or so and that may be too much for the brick house to continue with his dominance. If he is to be productive throughout the entire season Hoyer better start getting the rock moving through the air. I also didn't know how good or bad MSU would be with Coach D after his first year, they are good.

MSU has been able to get a ton of instate recruits and are putting together a very good class. I will still wait for the entire season to play out and for them to put to bed the echoes of falling late in the season until I crown Coach D as the man who will bring MSU back to the top 4 of the Big Ten in regards to football. Also please win a bowl game for once.

Nice catch

Good bye Mr. Millen! Please watch the entire video it is one of the best especially if you’re a Leos fan.

I don’t like David Blaine but love Kimbo Slice so I have to post him hitting Blaine right? Too bad he only punches him in the stomach and not the head.

2008-09-09T09:45:00.010-04:00

It is so nice to sit at my computer once again and keep hitting refresh over and over to see whether or not my fantasy team can win the game for me. Also I love the smack talk and having something to look forward to other then the Lions every Sunday.

As I'm sure many of you out there are aware of how bad the Lions looked against a very suspect team in Atlanta. I really just don't understand why they can never turn the corner - Millen!!! We continue to suck in the draft and don't even have our first two picks out there starting!?!? Just take a look a the good teams in the NFL who make the playoffs. Even with their great teams they are still able to find picks and have them starting on a team that is better then the Lions.....

It shouldn't get to me anymore being a Lions fan all my life but I'm not a sports fan from Atlanta or Carolina who could give a shit less about their NFL team. I'm a Lion fan and I want them to win a Lombardi Trophy someday. I know this is probably not realistic at this time with Millen wasting draft after draft and Marinelli blowing smoke up everyone's ass at his pressers.

As for the Wolverines, they still looked like a team in transition with a new football coach and complex system. I'm still hearing the fans on the radio talk about the recruiting class and how he is trying to make square pegs fit in round holes, yes that is true in some ways. I understand that every once and awhile they can line up and run right at the defense but in the end will doing this for one year help the program down the road? No it won't.

This team is very young and all the experience they get now learning and running the offense will only help us when we continue to get the players in here that are needed for the system to be the most effective. Understand Michigan fans this team is very very young and they would be the same for Llyod if he was here. For as bad as it looks though Notre Dame still looks worse and I think UM can pull it off once again against the fat guy.

Go Blue!!

One more little note before the vids. I was sad to see Tom Brady go down and this issue has been covered more then enough. I just wish him luck in his comeback and know he will be fine after having the same injury to both of my knees.

Mike and Mike on Monday Night also suck. They should just let Ditka be in there by himself. I bet he wouldn't even talk sometimes and just let people watch the game without an annoying voice every second of the game.

What would it look like if NFL players had a fantasy football draft? The Washington Redskins will show you. (Longer video but well worth the watch for any fantasy football player)

Here is a highlight from the Georgia/CMU game. Great play by Knowshon Moreno who may be up for the Heisman this year.

Did UCLA Just Win The National Title?

2008-09-03T18:58:00.007-04:00

I was up on Monday to watch the great game that was UCLA vs. Tennessee. Yes I understand that UCLA was the underdog and that their QB was a third stringer, but come on. I think the game was more of a testament to how bad Tennessee actually is. When the opposing teams QB keeps throwing pick after pick and you can't get any points out of it, that is just a bad team.

Yes I was impressed with the UCLA defense more than anything, but the press conference, fireworks, and Neuheisel going on and on about how they are taking over Cally = A big ass whipping when the best program of the past decade (USC just in case you don't have a clue) meets up with them later in the year. It will be fun to watch the UCLA fans cry after that one and I'm sure Neuheisel will stomp his feet in a few years and leave UCLA in a mess of penalties like he has with both his former employers.

As for Michigan :( I was very disappointed in the defense more than anything. I couldn't understand why we weren't putting pressure on Johnson the QB for Utah. We just thought the line was so good they would plow through their O-Line and get to their QB, this never happened until we made the changes in the second half and managed to stop them with consistency. I just don't understand why the coaches waited, I'm looking at you Shafer.

The QBs were also bad and I knew they would be. I just thought they could at least throw a ten yard pass with decent accuracy, I was wrong again. Threet just keep throwing the ball higher and higher and Sheridan keep throwing the ball too far away from the WRs to even have a chance of making a play.

Many Michigan fans want to cry and say RR is horrible and how could they make such a big mistake, these are probably the same fans who sit through an entire Michigan game on their hands expecting a Michigan win and wondering why they never have great home field advantage. RR has said it will take patience since day one and he is right, even though I'm sure he also expected a better showing.

Michigan will be great once again but it won't be this year or maybe even the next. RR will get his guys in here and he will show everyone they made the right choice. Most of this mess can be blamed on Llyod Carr who I think was a great coach but left the university in a bad spot with the timing of his resignation. Our Line is awful and we are starting guys who just a week ago had never played on the O-Line ever before.

PLEASE Michigan fans just be patient and don't rush to judge RR in his first season, we don't have the players too do what he is asking. We will be just fine but I've learned a lot about the Michigan fans just through one game. I think most of them don't have a clue about the roster and how bad it is, they just expect it to be Michigan and have the best talent, we don't as of now. I'm starting to see some of the truth in many of the stones thrown by other fan bases as to why they hate Michigan fans.

I'm sad about this and just hope everyone can see that RR will turn this program into what it once was. I think I also remember Llyod Carr losing his first game? Isn't he the same coach who lead a great team last year over the mighty Appy State? Yeah we should get Carr back here as fast as we can because he never had any losses and none more embarrassing than losing to a good team in UTAH? Also the great Pete Carroll lost to Utah his first season as well and what has he done with USC except contend and win National Championships year after year.

OK I'm done ranting. On Saturday Michigan did get some good news, Tate Forcier commited to the Wolverines. I think between him and Shav'd Beaver we will have two great QBs that can get what RR wants done. Checkout his website at www.qbforce.com You can also check out videos of him at the site and here on the side, just click his name to take you there.

3-0 Lions, oh its pre season still :(

2008-08-23T21:44:00.004-04:00

Wow the Lions still look pretty good, I know it is the pre season, but you can’t tell me they don’t look like a team that is hungry on both sides of the ball. I really believe the Lions will win at least 8 games and have already put some money where my mouth is.

I know that there are the typical Lions fans out there that will just continue to bash until they show some improvement, or so they say. I really find these fans pretty funny because they seem to think they know so much about the team that they don’t want anybody to pay attention or give credit too. Yes the Lions haven’t done anything great in many of years. The Lions WILL go 9-7 this year and hopefully even better to make the playoffs.

To all the Lions fans out there that say they will win no more than 3 or 4 games, your just plain ignorant to the fact that they have made good personal changes in bringing in a few of Marinelli’s guys that know the Tampa 2. Everyone kept crying about it but from what I’ve seen on the field they have made good choices. Getting rid of Shaun Rodgers and bringing in Bodden, another good choice when you consider Rodgers was huffing for air on the sideline every 4th quarter. Yeah he was the best player on our defense last year? No, it was Sims who actually played all 4 quarters.

Go Lions and shut up the critics for once.

So Long Newsome......

2008-08-20T14:25:00.004-04:00

The big news of day is that Kevin Newsome will not be coming to Michigan after all. Rumors have been floating around for months that he was not sold on UM and he finally revealed that he will open his recruiting again. This makes way for another QB, Tate Forcier. Many consider him a lock to come to Michigan. His brother went to UM and then onto Stanford with no hard feelings.

Forcier is a dual quarterback rated high by all recruiting sites. You can also checkout his site at qbforce.com. It has all of his times and what schools are interested in obtaining his services.

It is a tough loss for the Wolverines. I was really looking forward to having him and Beaver compete for the starting spot. In the end Michigan will be able to recruit another highly touted QB within the next few years. There are many options out there and will always be a few who fall in love with the maize and blue. Hopefully it is Forcier who does commit after visiting the campus for the Utah game

Yeah the election is coming. It is pretty bad when your own supporters don’t even know why the hell their voting for you.

One of the better t.v. ads from last year

Now that 4-star recruit Kevin Newsome has backed off of his commit to UM, comes Tate Forcier who everyone thinks will replace him. He is a top ranked dual threat QB just like Newsome.

Football is getting closer and closer so things are going well for everyone out there. The Lions already look to be sucking me in, again, this year. Calvin Johnson could be the best WR this year if he can stay healthy. With the weak schedule the first few weeks as well the Lions will be in full talk show mode with a few wins and many fans still bashing the wins.

The Tigers are done as I have already posted. I’m to ready for the football season so I won’t be talking baseball until the playoffs are close.

Michigan is keeping the hype machine going with the super freshmen tag team of McGuffie and Shaw, should be a great first game of the season. It has been a long time since I’ve anticipated the start of the season this much.

My fantasy football teams are also looking to win championships in both leagues. It’s funny that at the start of every football season everyone you talk to about ff says the same thing as well, huh.

If you haven't already seen or heard the news yet the Olympics have started and the U.S.A. is taking it to the world. I was up late last night to check out the U.S. relay team in swimming. It was one of the better events I've ever seen in the Olympics.

The French team was the heavy favorite for the event and talking all this smack in the papers about how they came here just to beat the U.S., didn't go as planned. In the final league of the relay Jason Lezak (U.S.A.) was about a full body length behind the French. The announcers were had pretty much concluded the U.S. would lose and had began to talk about how Phelps would not be able to go for the record 8 gold medals.

Just as they are coming down the finally lap (don't know what they call it in swimming, sorry. Update: it is called leg) Lezak starts to glide through the water as if swimming for his life like I used to do in my pool after I saw the Jaws movie. Just as both swimmers are within feet of the finish Lezak stretches out and edges out the French by hundredths of seconds.

One of the best moments of the Olympics and I'm sure will be the talk of the day around the country.

GO U.S.A!!!!

I have also stopped watching the sideshow that is the Detroit Tigers. Since then they've managed to sweep the Oakland A's. I will continue to not watch as this move seems to both benefit myself and the team, your welcome Leyland.

Had a fantasy football draft yesterday and Reggie Bush better have a great year because I have bought into the legend that he was in college $$$$. FF drafts are very fun for anyone and I encourage anybody who is big NFL fan to get in a league.

The only thing about FF that I hate is when people cheer against their favorite team so that their FF players can get points and win. I know there is a lot of money in FF and that being a fan, especially of the Lions, isn't very rewarding but I just don't see how you can call yourself a fan of any team when in reality your just a sellout.

Lookout for the Tigers! Glad to see them come out and get some runs after a blowout the other night. I really believe that Cabrera is going to really get it going for the second half of the season. The biggest key for the Tigers, as with any MLB team, is for their starting pitching to step up and keep the runs low. Minor, Robertson, and Rodgers will be the main reason the Tigers do or don’t make a push towards the division lead.

Still hearing rumors that the Pistons are interested in both Josh Smith (sign & trade) and Ron Artest. Don’t really know how strong of interest the Pistons have in either one but both have the Pistons trading away Prince to acquire either player.

Here is a link to some news on 5 Star recruit Darius Wintson. He had named Michigan as his new leader awhile back but since has decided to slow the recruiting process down a little.

http://www.nwanews.com/adg/Sports/231854/

Also former Michigan QB, Clayton Richard, will be making his first start today for the White Sox. I don’t remember this guy at all. I hope he does well, but also hope they lose for the Tigers sake.

Josh Hamilton put on a great show last night. It was fun to see him hit so many long ass homeruns.

I advise any baseball fan to at least attend one during their lifetime.

NCAA 09 is out today and the reviews sound pretty good compared to years past. They haven’t graded the incoming freshmen class very fair though. I hear they are graded 80s or so in speed dispite many of them running 4.4 40s and even McGuffie who ran a 3.35 40. I can’t understand how they aren’t mid to low 90s on speed.

Going home to test out the new look offense, have a good one.

Pretty soon they will have to lift him with a crane to get him out of his house, I give it three years.

2008-07-14T12:41:00.004-04:00

The Tigers let everyone down this week in which they could’ve gained a ton of ground on both the division leader White Sox and second place Twins. The Twins have owned the Tigers this season and they came to Comerica and kept the Tigers their whipping boy by taking 3 out of 4. I won’t go out and say there is no chance of the Tigers making a run at the Sox and Twins but if Mags comes back and we don’t come out of the All-Star break on a tear, we will be looking forward to next year very early.

Sick of Brett Favre and how much ESPN is talking about him…….

I can’t believe how close training camp is and all the FF football talk that is starting to creep up. It is the best time of year for most sports fans by far. I can only hope to be watching the RED ZONE channel at one of my friends house come this fall.

Also the last bit of news for the day is that the Lions are interested in QB Chris Simms from the Bucs. I really don’t understand why considering we just drafted Stanton last year with a 2nd round pick. It never fails that the Lions will continue to defy all logic.

Thought you could only do this kind of bad assery in a video game.

Finally we can put the $4 million buyout to WVU behind us now that both WVU and RR have agreed to pay the full amount. I'm really glad that this has happened and wish it would've been done sooner but alas.

The Pistons are rumored to be chasing after a trade with Houston Rockets to get all star T-Mac. IMO not sure if this is a great move considering how well T-Mac does in the first round of the playoffs every year. I do think the Stones need change and just hope if this happens he will not have back problems and only play half of the season.

Another advantage of this trade would be the fact that McGrady's contract would be up in two years which will be one of the greatest off seasons for free agent's in the history of the league. Should be interesting to see where Lebron ends up as well.

I wouldn't really call it a vaction but I took a little break from updating my blog here and there. No worry I'm ready to get back posting my usual crap. Look for a new post in the next few days with more to follow. Also congrats to the Red Wings on another cup! There is no reason the wings shouldn't be able to get it again in the following years.

I also think Michael Curry isn't that bad of a hire after the Pistons found there way out of the playoffs with that horrible game 6. I know many want Avery to come and coach the Pistons, but when I look at what he did with the Mavericks it doesn't impress me much. He was able to get to the finals but they lost, so why is he such an upgrade over Flip?? You say because he is intense and gets up off the bunch and shouts, so what to that.

2008-05-19T13:41:00.005-04:00

Now we know who the Pistons will have to beat in order to get another championship. I thought the game seven between Boston and Cleveland was alright, but not an instant classic like everyone seems to think. Now I'm ready for the Pistons to go into Boston and steal one of the first two games from them. I hope that after two series that went 7 games, Boston will be tired and the Pistons will come out firing, until Tuesday night.

In the hockey world tonight is the night that fans will finally be able to know the matchup for the Stanley Cup. I'm taking the Wings in a 4-1 game with a strong performance by none other than Ozzie. Two goals and assits by both Zetterberg and Daytsuk.

Tigers still suck so nothing new on that waste of time.

Yeah the Wings got screwed on that last game but no need to worry. Tigers are still sucking. Power Rankings are still stupid. Gotta get to my golf league, c ya.

Ahh Tuesday The Day That Nobody Really Cares About

2008-05-13T10:43:00.006-04:00

Glad to see Daytsuk jump on the Dallas Stars neck last night. The series is over and all we have to look forward to for game 4 is whether or not McCarty will come out and get into a fight with somebody, probably not.

King Ugly was at it again last night. The Celtics continue to play horrible basketball away from the Garden and better find a way to win on the road soon because their going to lose at home either against the Cavs in this series or in the next against the Pistons.

Speaking of the Pistons they are on tonight and should put the series to bed with a 20 point win over the Magic. The Tigs are also back after a few days rest and lets hope they can get their pitching going with Nate Robertson on the bump.

Good Day!!

Two things I don't like - Comcast and a pitcher who has one great year and goes downhill after he blows out his arm for throwing 100 mph heaters. Where is Matt Anderson by the way?

Here is another great athelete commercial. I wonder how much these guys get paid for this crap, I would probably do it to though. Is is just me or is Ogden the first black guy that can't dance?

You have to love how calm this guy is when you know he wants to go crazy and freakout.

Finally

2008-05-12T11:12:00.009-04:00

What a good weekend for any sports fan with both the NHL and NBA playoffs in full swing. I was glad to see that both San Antonio and Utah were able to comeback and even up each their respective series at 2-2. Should make for some good t.v. during the week.

The Pistons had a great coaching performance by Billups errr Flip and were also able to go up 3-1 coming back to the Palace. They also have been given the ammunition to put the Magic out of their misery with a guarantsheed by none other than the superstar that is Jameer Nelson.

Don't know how many of you that visit this site are big golf fans but it is always fun to watch the pros take on number 17 at the TPC. I hope to one day be able to play that hole, probably never will, but isn't it great to see a pro look like an average golfer for just one hole?

Should be on with a post almost everyday this week unlike the past few weeks, so comeback and I will also have a new poll up for everyone to give their two cents about something that really means nothing in the end.

Don't forget Wings are on tonight. No need to worry about the Tigers ruining yet another day because they have it off.

A Lacrosse highlight actually worth watching?!?!

Ahh high school atheletes

Glad to see the Wings didn't miss a beat last night and continue the trend of putting the puck in the goal multiple time. Franzen also had another goal to make it to 12 (pretty sure), he will need 7 more to tie two other at 19 for the most goals scored in a playoff. Just so you know, the record for points in a single playoff is 47 by of course the great one, Wayne Gretzky.

I'm not in a mood to bitch today so I won't mention the Tigers. I really hope that Billups can get back after trying to do the splits in game 3. That really looked painful.

If your a big hockey fan as well check out the Eastern Conference finals between in-state rivals Penguins and Flyers. Should be a great series.

Have a good weekend and don't forget the best part about it.

Is It Football Season Yet?

2008-05-07T13:40:00.005-04:00

I know this time of year is great for any fan of Detroit sports teams and I shouldn't bitch, but alas. I'm really getting tired of all these pre season polls for the upcoming college football season. I really could careless about what any writer thinks a team will be ranked and do, because to me college football is the most unpredictable sport of all.

Last year had to be one of the craziest of all and this year will probably no different. The talent across the NCAA is great and I really like seeing teams like Navy go up against teams they should never beat and win while making its way to a bowl game. There is also the great Appy State and their victory over the Wolverines that had me lost in my mind trying to figure out if I was dreaming for weeks.

I'm sick of going to any sports site or popular magazine/newspaper site and seeing Mr. No Name with his great picks like he has a crystal ball in his pocket. I doubt that this guy has had time to evaluate all of the recruits that will be coming into ever program. I know I base most of my insight on recruits by going to Rivals or Takkle to see what they say and I'm sure that is what these guys do when basing who they think will be good or not, that is shitty.

So basically these guys are making a list based on recruit rankings from another list and what the teams have done last year and I have to read this crap in the spring during playoff basketball and hockey while the baseball is just getting started? All I'm asking is to save your worthless list that will mean nothing 6 games into the season, until mid to late summer. Everyone knows who the best teams for the most part are in college football, USC, LSU, OSU, Georiga, and (insert team you like) and we all know the BCS system will work it all out in a fair and reasonable fashion. There will be enough talk about football when the season is upon us, so lets wait until then for the list.

Now a few quick vids

Poll Results Are In!

2008-05-06T15:25:00.005-04:00

Thanks for all the lazy bastards who weren't too lazy to click on which GM of the four pro sports teams in Detroit they would want to run their team if they had one.

Here were the results:
Joe D - 15 votes
Ken Holland - 16 votes
Dave Dombrokski - 29 votes WINNER
Matt Millen - 2 votes

I'm glad both Mr. Ford and Mr. Millen himself are both regular visitors to my blog, because we all know they are the only people who would want Millen to continue on with the rain of terror he has caused for Lions fans, no offense (I only have so many readers and don't want it to go down to 3 from 5).

I find it pretty funny that DD was the GM picked by most because of what everyone thought the Tigers would be doing this year with his off season moves. The Tigs better get it going soon so you voters don't look like idiots. I still think the Tigs will be fine and the division is playing horrible with them only 3 1/2 back.

As for Joe D. and Ken Holland, their teams are right where everyone expects them to be, in the hunt for a championship! I really think the Wings will for sure win it all and the Pistons will make it to the finals have a tough series against the Hornets with them pulling it off in 7.

Tigs are on tonight against Boston and hopefully they can get a win streak going to get back to the .500 mark.

I have not decided what to do the next poll on so if you have any ideas please email or make a comment about what you think would be a good one.

Here are some great pics of the mans/ping pong room over at Dreamers house. Nice.

Later

What A Week!

2008-04-30T14:51:00.010-04:00

Twice in one week? That is just too much. Fans of Detroit should take a moment and remember one of the greatest weeks in recent Detroit sports history. Both the Tigers, Pistons, and Wings managed to complete the winning tri-fecta twice in one week!! Can't wait for the next round of playoffs to start so they can do it again.

I'm glad we won't have to wait long for the next playoff game with the Pistons taking on the Magic tomorrow. It is also great to see the Tigers just one win away from the .500 mark. I know many of us were worried about the bad start, but it looks like the team we all thought we had has finally arrived and this will be a great year for Tigers baseball

On a side note, the Michigan Wolverines continue to keep getting great recruits with RR at the helm. Most of these guys are very fast as well. This may be a hard year to weather for us UM fans, but RR isn't going to make us wait that long to see what an SEC team would look like in the big ten. Keep getting the recruits RR!!!

Another great commit to add to next years great Michigan recruiting class - Bryce McNeal WR. You can check his myspcae page out here.

If Only All Nights Had This Much Great TV

2008-04-29T14:22:00.007-04:00

What a great night for a Detroit sports fan. The Pistons come back home to hopefully take over the series against the nagging 76ers. The Wings go out to Colorado and can shut the door on any chance of the Avs cup run this year, and the Tigers start a series with everyone favorite team to hate, the yanks.

It's days like these that make my GF get pissed off, so I'm glad she'll be up north so she won't be bitching at me. I think all three teams will win tonight and everyone in the D will rejoice for one great night of sports.

Draft Day Is Upon Us

2008-04-26T09:55:00.006-04:00

Wow what a disappointing night, both the Tigs and Stones loss. I really don't know what's up with the Pistons, but I still think they will pull off a series win. The Tigs should've gotten a few more runs and were unable to play small ball which cost them the game. Sheff is a real rally killer right now and I don't think he is even close to 80 percent healthy. His career is going to end pretty soon if you ask me.

As for the one day of the year that Lions fans actually have hope for, it is HERE!!! As long as we go with players in the trenches or a LB for the first few rounds I'll be happy. A lot can happen in the first round and maybe this will be the year it goes right for Millen, highly doubtful though. A lot of people have them getting the LB Mayo who looks like a decent player. I just hope that we can at least find one starter out of the 2 third round picks we have. If we do, this will be the best draft be Millen in his great career.

Check out the QB recruit Michigan will be bringing in for 2009, Kevin Newsome. He is ranked 39 overall for the class of 2009 by rivals.com

I hope the Dolphins made a clause in their contract with Jake Long about playing guitar hero. He may want to have a little chat with Zumya

Stupid Yankees fans and Red Sox fans fighting. I hate both of these fans more than any other teams in sports because they think their the only ones that matter even though the Yanks haven't won in years and the Red Sox sucked for decades and now think they are the greatest team in the history of baseball (First few seconds are only part of vid worth watching)

Wonder if this guy even trained for this fight?

Anyone Sick of That Fox Promo Yet?

2008-04-16T15:30:00.006-04:00

Between switching back and forth from the Tigers, Wings, and Pistons games on Foxsports and Foxsports Plus I'm ready to shot that idiot in the head. Yes its April in the D and we all are happy we get to see the games, but show me a few big breasted women in the background not a Tommy Lee wanna be with Lyrics that I could make better with an hour on the toilet.

It is nice though to have both the Stones and Wings in the playoffs as the Tigers begin playing like they were supposed to, two weeks after the season started. I think the Pistons we make easy work of the 76ers, but they might lose one just because we all know how laid back they can get when not challenged. The Wings will win tonight by 4-1 and McCarty will have a hat trick, GUARANTEED!!!

Did You Guys Pray?

2008-04-15T14:33:00.005-04:00

After my last blog where I aske for fans of the Tigs to pray the cats have gone on a roar going 2-2!! We're back, I hope. I really hope last nights game is the turning point of the season, but everytime the tigers win one they lose the next.

Last night the Red Wings were also looking to go up 3-0 in the series versus the hillbillies, but they sat back and got too defensive and Dom let an easy one it. No worries here though, the Wings have played against the Preds tight all year and come out on top in pretty much all of the games. Hopefully the wings can play 3 full periods in the next matchup and not lie down after they think they have it in the bag.

Ah as for the Predators fan base of toothless goons, they are all over the web acting like they have just won the series even though they are still down 2-1. I can't imagine all of the webbed feet offsprings that would be consumated if they were to ever win the cup. They actually through a Catfish on the ice which doens't make to much sense with any kind of hockey tradition.

The Preds are the typical new fan base of a team that hasn't earned anything since they've been in the league, but act like they should be respected. What should I respect them for, the way they are able to put two double wides together on a hill and not have them tip over? It is always funny when one fan base thinks they know a sport that they don't even play in their state, let alone have ever played in their life but want to be conisdered knowledgable about the sport. Having fun getting beat by the Wings hicks!!
