Were you to apply four […]
It’s the offseason, which means it’s time again to debate the Detroit Lions making a big, splashy move at defensive end. While I think the discussion is generally tired, because general manager Brad Holmes has often said that the team is not necessarily in a position to make a big move considering all of the […]
This intro was originally going to be about how the Pirates were having an interesting offseason after being connected to Kyle Schwarber earlier this winter and with Ken Rosenthal saying they were making an aggressive push for Framber Valdez yesterday. Then the Tigers went and signed Valdez, so the Pirates offseason of “No Paul, we’re […]

The Detroit Tigers have had some great pitchers in their long history, but few made their mark the way left-hander Mickey Lolich did. The hero of the 1968 World Series passed away at age 85 on Wednesday. Lolich was the ultimate combination of workhorse and ace. He pitched 16 seasons, covering 3638 1/3 innings with […]
Folks, we’re almost there. Winter still has us in its icy grip here in the north, but a week from today, pitchers and catchers will be reporting to Lakeland.

Sunday is the Super Bowl, and for Detroit Lions fans, there are no clear rooting interests. I imagine a lot of people have a hard time rooting for the New England Patriots given their wild amount of success in the 2000s. However, the Seattle Seahawks have been the source of a lot of pain to […]
