The Bears fortified their defensive line, acquiring Montez Sweat from Washington for a second-round pick. The Bears need a lot more help than that, but that's a good add for them.

Tom Emmer or Mike Johnson will be the next Speaker of the House.

It won't be Emmer, whose nomination lasted all of about three hours. One mean "RINO" tweet from El Trumpo and Emmer backed out.

I'm no political junky, far from it. But from a little googling Kevin McCarthy seems to score pretty moderate for a republican. Somebody tell me who pays attention what do the Democrat's hope to gain by throwing him out? A democrat speaker? That doesn't seem likely. A more "liberal" republican? Tha...

A more in-depth story about Comer's passing from a media outlet near his hometown.

My bad, I didn't know he parted ways with the Red Sox. His X/Twitter caption still reads "Angels -> Tigers -> Red Sox," so I (wrongly) assumed he was still there.

In that case, it should be real easy to bring him back, assuming he would want to. Make it so, Bally, make it so!

I'd be fine with Dickerson on TV and Impemba on the radio. More likely, Dickerson moves to TV and a play by play man from one of the Tigers' farm teams gets promoted to fill Dan's current job. As pointed out by Evan Woodbery on mlive.com, Dickerson is an employee of the Tigers, while Shepard worked...

I have to admit that I'm feeling very happy today that it's finally the last day of Miguel Cabrera's player contract with the Tigers. Many people have been waiting for this day for years. I won't try to take anything away from the people who are celebrating the end of Cabrera's career for other rea...

Murdoch, 92, will hand the reins of Fox Corp. and News Corp. over to son Lachlan in November. Discuss amongst yourselves what this means for the future of both companies.

The Tigers hosted six 1968 alumni at last Saturday's game: Willie Horton, Mickey Stanley, Jon Warden, John Hiller, Denny McLain and Mickey Lolich. The team uploaded a photo to their Facebook page on Saturday, showing the six players in a Comerica Park suite around a table that held the 1968 WS troph...

The Detroit broadcasting legend will retire on December 1.

The Tigers are marketing the game on Saturday, Sept. 9 vs the White Sox as a 55th Anniversary Celebration of the 1968 WS champs. From an email I received from the team: "55th Anniversary of the 1968 World Series Championship Join us in honoring the 55th anniversary of the Detroit Tigers 1968 World S...

I thought that Don Wert died quite a few years ago also. He must still be alive, at least as of two weeks ago. His birthday is July 29, 1938, and his hometown paper in Lancaster, Pennsylvania published an item in its sports section that day noting that he was turning 85 years old. https://lancaster...

https://www.prohockeyrumors.com/2023/08/detroit-red-wings-acquire-jeff-petry.html I would have liked this trade better if it had happened, say, 7 or 8 years ago, but the Red Wings today acquired 35-year-old defenseman Jeff Petry, son of former Tigers pitcher Dan Petry. The Wings gave up D-man Gusta...

What I said was that the timing of "justice" in the Trump cases has motives behind it other than justice. I firmly believe that there are people in the Biden Justice Department who are directly colluding with the prosecutors in these cases. Considering that the U.S. election campaign cycle seems to...
