@motownmasochist @B_Zski @musterpointman @Lions @colton_pouncy @clark_damone Especially when these home grown stars are in their prime ready to compete for a SB right now instead of waiting for player X, Y and Z from the draft to potentially develop into a star in a few years or more

@motownmasochist @B_Zski @musterpointman @Lions @colton_pouncy @clark_damone Ahhhh that’s right, teams get better by signing depth guys to fill starting spots and hoping for draft picks to develop, all while their stars are in their prime and not getting any younger or less injured. Got it!

.@clark_damone is a Lion 🤝

@motownmasochist @B_Zski @musterpointman @Lions @colton_pouncy @clark_damone we got those stars by making a splash and trading Stafford. So while he does tend to draft well and has had picks develop into great players he’s also had some not so great picks and relying on the draft to fill all these holes doesn’t seem like the best approach

@KenKalDRW @971theticketxyt It worked!

@KenKalDRW @971theticketxyt Please scratch Rasmussen, thanks!

@MikeSullivan 😂

Just a PSA… I am not actually the same Mike Sullivan, head coach of Team USA!

@patcaputo98 So sorry to see this to one of my fellow Groves and Sparty alumni. I always enjoy your takes on Detroit sports and looking forward to hearing more of them once you kick cancers ass.

For those wondering where I’ve been: I have been diagnosed with Stage 4 pancreatic cancer, commonly referred to as a “death sentence” and had two other serious ailments which put me in ICU for several days. It was sudden. I’ve literally been on my back for weeks. Bless you all.

@971theticketxyt The “we’re gonna bite your kneecaps” swagger is gone. This team has lacked that attitude all year. DC has turned this team into something it isn’t and I don’t see it changing without some major moves that they just don’t do so now we’re stuck with whatever this is supposed to be

Where has the Lions grit been this year?

@FirstTake @stephenasmith Outside of beating Buffalo who in tf have the Pats beat to put them #3 on this god awful “rankings for clicks” list?

@FanDuelSN @FanDuelSN_DET

Even better when @FanDuelSN sends me notifications on a Monday to “get up it’s game day for the red wings” when they don’t play until Wednesday 🤦🏻‍♂️ Looks like the Ballys app with a new logo slapped on it.

It’s so great paying for the @FanDuelSN app so I can reload it every 5 minutes because it freezes or there’s an error

@TJLang70 Positive vibes!

Swing at a pitch that hits the plate, stare at one right down the middle. Never fails.

@TJLang70 Imagine paying 💰 for tix only to have a 3h rain delay forcing you to buy more drinks/food and then this team comes out swinging like a HR is the only option. It’s unwatchable really. What a shame given how the fans have shown up and paid so much to support this team all year.

Thought Tigers would have some juice in front of the home crowd tonight and then I just realized they are 2-11 last 13 home games. Putrid.

@patcaputo98 Too many scoring opportunities to have the heart of your lineup (if we even have that) continue to come up empty. What a tough watch

A.J. Hinch just spoke very loudly about Riley Greene by pinch hitting for him. Yes, even against a lefty.

@stoney16 @stoolpresidente Did you also say this when Biden and his administration pressured social media platforms to censor conservative posts about hunters laptop, covid vaccines and the Russia hoax? Can’t look at it one way and not the other, Stoney.

@stoolpresidente You are correct if there was no government pressure. That is the problem. If Disney did it without their affiliates getting pressured from the government there wouldn’t be a problem Freedom of Speech does not give you freedom of repercussions.The government should stay away

Here is the only take that matter on the Kimmel suspension. Mine of course…

@stoney16 @gregbradyx It’s almost like a president and his administration pressuring social media platforms to censor conservative posts regarding hunters laptop, covid vaccines or the Russia hoax. Crazy!

@gregbradyx To me it’s irrelevant. Do you think President would force Fox to fire someone if they did something similar? If Disney did it on its own,that is different. We can’t have the government go after people who they don’t like.

Jimmy Kimmel fired

@HockeySnobElite @patcaputo98 Agreed…Felt weird that the captain said the GM should have traded someone on the team to lift morale all the while he was ice cold down the stretch. Be a better leader with the guys in the room and maybe we won’t suck when the calendar hits March.

@patcaputo98 Pat you couldn't be more wrong here. Yzerman is annoyed with the media pumping the airwaves to do something that's not his plan. Tbh it was kind of an FU to the idiots on the radio trying to talk Hockey. As for the Larkin comments,it was nonsense. And soft. Not what a leader does

Steve Yzerman seemed lost for words today. That’s unusual for him. But it was THAT BAD of a season. As for what Larkin said, good. That was being a leader.

@3The_Savage @riger1984 Please note I think the Mrazek trade was atrocious and I did hope he made a move for someone so we don’t have to play Holl, but Larkin and others need to own up to realizing they could have made a better run if they didn’t absolutely suck after 4N.

@3The_Savage @riger1984 Why sell the farm for a rental when you’re rolling heading into 4N? Maybe if Larkin didn’t go ice cold they’d be in a better spot? I get their defense and 5v5 scoring needs help but Larkin should be looking in the mirror instead of whining about getting more help, like leaders do
