Ehh...they could have signed him to an extension to rearrange some of that monster cap hit. Shame that Detroit just sucks the life out of it's stars. Tongue

Any thoughts of the hiring of Quinn?

My tickets came in the mail last week so I am ready to go.  Any Tiger success this season will entirely depend upon whether or not the big guys can stay healthy.  They completely revamped the bullpen, which was their weakest link, but at this point I don't know if they actually plastered over the holes or just slapped wallpaper on top of them.  Pitching is definitely the number 1 question mark.  Both starters and relievers.  We may have to beat everyone 9-8; but that won't happen if the big guys don't stay healthy.

Well, with the start of free agency  tomorrow/today, the next season of the NFL is officially underway.

Also, Iwanted to start this to poke at our beloved lions fans, on a day that swirls the deja vu...
