Similar to Don Pardo announcing on SNL up to his death.
Don Pardo was the original Jeopardy announcer. Long before SNL.

Re: Detroit Tigers 2023

Wentz pitching vs the Twins. Gives up 4 runs in the first, 3 in the second, and 1 in the third. Guaranteed loss when he pitches. That is if you call it pitching.

Re: The A's are moving from Oakland to Las Vegas

why can't they play where the Raiders play until the new stadium is built for the A's? Because it's not configured to accommodate baseball? Neither was the L.A. Coliseum when the Dodgers moved there, but they made it work for a few years till Dodger Stadium was built. And plenty of other stadiums t...

Re: United Artists Theater Torn Down

I remember seeing Ben-Hur there when it first came out in 1959. And I used to park at the old Michigan Theater when going to Tiger games and it appeared that the owners, Illitch's maybe, were in the process of renovating it. Wonder what happened?

Re: Stafford traded to the Rams for Goff + a bunch of draft picks

Great point. :) Stafford has had a vacation home in southern California for a while, from what I understand. He's also a schoolmate and longtime friend of an obscure Dodgers starting pitcher. (What's that dude's name again? LOL) He and Kelly are probably thrilled to be going to L.A. He will quickly...

Re: Another Phone Scam

You know, it all sounds like the popup ads you get when when you access some web sites, or when you click on a You Tube video and one or two ads come up right away that they want you to watch first. A few months ago, my brother sent me a txt giving me his new phone number. It seems that he got one o...

Re: Lee Iacocca dies at 94

I think he couldn't get along with Ford Jr. so he left and went to Chrysler. He was a true car guy, I thought I heard he was involved in a casino in Deadwood,SD after he retired. You mean Henry Ford II? Ford made him president of the company in 1970, but they never really got along. So, Ford fired ...

Re: Sinclair Seen As Top Bidder At Fox Regional Sports Network Auction

Sinclair is the winner! I forgot that Sinclair already owns Tennis Channel. Byron Allen is going to be a significant investor in the subsidiary Sinclair will be forming to hold the regional sports networks. https://www.detroitnews.com/story/business/2019/05/03/sinclair-purchasing-fox-sports-affilia...

Re: Following Out-of-Market Sports Teams Difficult

I only subscribe to one sports pkg and that's NHLtv. It's only about $135 for the season and I get to see any game. Of course, I watch the Wings on FSD, but I like watching hockey period and will watch any game that might be on, though games that are televised on NBCSports and NHL Network are blacke...

Re: Man, Chrysler/Jeep makes shitty cars...

I have the Start/Stop feature on my 2017 Escape. At first, I thought it was kind of neat, save a few pennies on gas. Now, I turn it off when stopped. When it's on in the summer, and it's hot out, your A/C shuts off every time you stop at a light. So, I figured, the hell with it. I do like the Lane K...

Re: Is Kroger starting a price war in Metro Detroit?

One of the posts that were accidentally purged as a result of the server changeover speculated that Kroger was trying to match Walmart on certain items. On many items, especially private label items (which includes milk), Kroger is now less expensive than Meijer in numerous instances. For brand nam...
