Gary Sheffield called time after Pedro Martinez was about to throw the ball. Well the umpire granted it and that didn’t sit well with Pedro. The very next pitch, he beamed Gary. Old school baseball at its finest.

@BuckeyeBat How to unite the Michigan and Ohio State fans? Let the SEC coaches keep saying stupid stuff.
English
It went from:
“Our tough schedules are why SEC teams are more experienced/battle hardened when we get to BCS/Playoffs. Thats why we win all these titles”
To:
“Our tough schedules are why SECs teams are getting slapped around in the playoffs. You guys are well rested”

NEW: Missouri's Eli Drinkwitz says the Big Ten's non-conference schedules are a big reason for its 3 straight national titles: "When you don't play a (non-conference) A4 game." (h/t @Brett_McMurphy) on3.com/news/eli-drink…
English
@Brett_McMurphy Does Eli know the internet exists? And that we can look up Missouri's non-conference schedule? Do Central Arkansas and Louisiana sound familiar? (And finishing 8-5.)
English
Missouri's Eli Drinkwitz said part of reason B1G has won last 3 national titles: "When you don't play a (non-conference) A4 game"
English
@ChaseDisPaper1 Would be this the same coach of the Missouri football team that played, wait for it ... Central Arkansas, Kansas, and Louisiana in the 2025 non-conf schedule. Shut up.
English
The SEC had four opportunities to eliminate UM, OSU and IU from the CFP’s….they went 0-4. Now they won because their non conference opponents are easy? Lol they are spiraling 😭

@DetroitTigersPR Send down the guy who's hitting .417 with 2 HRs. ?????

Tigers went 0-5 with 4 K in the All-Star game. 😐
Verlander didn’t pitch

@HawkEmDownChris That's the dumbest question ever. I'd do it for $5. Heck, I'm doing it for nothing right now.

@OrevaZSN Don’t rent the place with the $185 cleaning fee. Fixed your problem.

@BrettKollmann Can't live on $560,000. I need cars. And bling. And more bling. And mom needs a new car. And a new house.
English
8 million dollars in an index fund that tracks the S&P 500 pays you $560,000 every year for the rest of your life.
NFLPA tries to drill this into every single rookie entering the league.

Odell Beckham Jr. reveals the real math on a $100,000,000 NFL contract: • On paper → $100,000,000 • Actually guaranteed → $60,000,000 • After taxes → $12,000,000/yr • Car, house for mom, living → $4,000,000/yr • What’s left → $8,000,000/yr • Five years. Then it’s over. Forever “Can you make that last forever?”

@its_The_Dr That league--everything about it--is a joke. Honestly, it would be impossible for me to care less. I just see its stupidity on Twitter and shake my head.
English
You do your best to get the ball back Quickly to the referee and he hits Caitlin with a Delay of game. Wow
English
@LK33JD He needs to fire Boras. Then, your talk matters. Until then, shut up and pitch.
English
@katsuxbt "Car, house for mom, living" = $4M/year.
Shut up.

@Hugeshow Keep him, and the Tigers miss the playoffs. And you don't get any "hope they pan out prospects." You get nothing.
English
A guy helps lead the Tigers to back to back unexpected playoff appearances and wins consecutive Cy Young awards in both years as the best pitcher in the American League yet some in Michigan still think he now can’t go more than six innings and they’ll take some hope they pan out prospects in a trade?
WTF is going on people?
You can see the life Skubal brought back to a team that was dead in the water at the end of May.
Trade him and the Tigers miss the playoffs.
English
@Section344Lions He doesn't want to be in Detroit. Look at his agent. Enough said. He wants $$$.
English
Tarik Skubal might be my 3rd favorite Tiger ever behind JV & Miggy, but I truly can’t wait for his contract situation to be over & done with.
The whole thing just comes off as so wildly disingenuous.
I just can’t rationalize if you actually want to be here this badly as you claim you do … why isn’t an extension already signed?
If it’s on the Tigers and you know they won’t pony up — all good. But then stop with the Detroit City Summer Tours and quotes about how you can’t imagine going anywhere else.
Otherwise I don’t need the play it both ways thing anymore. Either you want to be here or you don’t.
English
@Hugeshow @BNightengale “How on earth?????”
He won’t sign before becoming a free agent. That’s how on earth.
Pretty simple answer.
English
“Tarik Skubal has informed friends that he badly wants to stay in Detroit the rest of the season, believing they have a legitimate shot at the World Series, and has zero appetite to be traded. "I’ve never lost faith," Skubal says” (Via @BNightengale)
How on earth haven’t the Tigers signed this guy?

@pegobry_en @SlayTheBeast5 What's "convenient" is knowing the actual temperature ... not a range, which is what C gives you.
English
@SlayTheBeast5 No, it's talking about what's convenient/intuitive in daily life.

Celsius is superior to Fahrenheit and I’m tired of pretending this is a debate.
Celsius feels like temperature was designed by an human being who walks outside, feels the air, and says, “Yeah, that makes sense.”
Zero is freezing. 40 is brutally hot.
22 is comfortable. 25 is warm.
The numbers feel like what they are describing.
Fahrenheit feels like it was designed by a committee of people who hate joy and want every conversation about the weather to sound like a chemistry lab.
“It’s 70 degrees outside.”
What does that even mean to a normal person? Am I wearing shorts? Am I grabbing a jacket?
Nobody knows. You need a conversion chart and a government employee standing next to you explaining the vibes.
Celsius gives you range. That’s the point. It gives you more numbers for the temperatures human beings actually live in. You can feel the difference between 20, 22, 25, and 28. Those numbers matter. Celsius lets you describe the world with precision without having to use high numbers like a lunatic.

That’s the point. It gives you more numbers for the temperatures human beings actually live in. You can feel the difference between 68, 72, 76, and 80. Those numbers matter. Fahrenheit lets you describe the world with more precision without having to break into decimals like a lunatic. And here’s the other thing... Celsius is connected to the metric cult energy that came out of the French Revolution. And the French Revolution was evil. Both of the Revolution were to rip out tradition, faith, monarchy, hierarchy, the Church, the calendar, the clock, and anything that reminded man he was not God. CELSIUS IS INHERENTLY EVIL So yes, Celsius may be useful if you’re boiling water in a lab. Congratulations. But Fahrenheit is for living LIFE because Fahrenheit is for walking outside and instantly knowing what kind of day you’re about to have. 100 means hot. 70 means beautiful. Zero means don’t go outside unless you have a death wish. That’s a real system.

@pegobry_en So, you can't have this same discussion about 32F? Sorry, your argument just doesn't make any sense.
English
If you have kids in Europe, whether the temperature goes below 0 or not in December, meaning whether there will be snow for Christmas, is a big topic of concern for children, and when the number dips negative an occasion of joy for them.
The Pointy-Headed Technocrats Committee of Fahrenheit just can't understand those simple life pleasures.
English
@pegobry_en None of what you say makes any sense. So, a 40-degree swing goes from "freezing" to "brutally hot." 40 degrees.
Dude, give me the actual, real temperature in the nice little F slices. That's information I can use.
