Stoney mentioned last week that this is his final week as a regular morning host, but he will continue to be a presence around the station for two more years, subbing in for vacationers and filling in generally whenever they need a voice. I recall Stoney specifically said that he might be asked to f...

He could have kept his mouth shut (and thumbs off the keyboard) and paid *only* $5 million, but, nope. He had the right to remain silent, but he didn't have the ability. I mean, I know Trump will find a way to spin this in a way that he sees as a benefit to him, but it's just bat-spit crazy to think...

The longtime CBS newsman, poet-in-residence and one-time host of "CBS Sunday Morning" suffered from dementia.

For good measure: Apparently the Lions weren't the only Detroit team notching a win over Tampa Bay Sunday. :D And the weekend before was a doubleheader sweep over LA (Wings over Kings on Saturday, then Lions over Rams). And since this was bumped, how about the Islanders firing Lane Lambert and brin...

Philly's collapse in the final half dozen games is one of the more epic choke jobs in recent memory. ESPN's Tim McManus posted a story on their website early yesterday that indicated there was a good deal of trouble in the Eagles' camp over the last six weeks, and it interestingly hinged on a certa...

And now Stevie is adding Patrick Kane to the mix. It's official now, they're gunning for the playoffs. Speculation is that Kane could form a potent second line with DeBrincat and Compher, which would move Rasmussen to center the third line. Of course, the team could also choose to put Kane on the to...

Bears were first team in NFL history to lose with at least a favorable 3 turnover differential while also possessing the football for at least 40 minutes. With four minutes left in the game, the Bears’ win probability was 98.8 percent. In the last 83 NFL games where a team had at least a 12-point l...

The Tigers' relief ace, who won both the AL MVP and AL Cy Young awards for his stellar 1984 season, died of a cardiac arrest.

Hernandez had apparently been suffering from cardiac issues for many years.

Cunningham was garbage last night. Team was -24 when he was on the floor. Shot below 27 percent for the game and was 0 of 5 from 3-pt range. Thompson was also awful. I haven't paid any attention to the Pistons yet this season. All I know is what I've read here. Eight-game losing streaks before the ...

Better to be lucky than good? I'm secretly enjoying the turmoil coming out of Edmonton right now, seeing Holland and Connor McDavid getting twisted into knots over the Oilers' lousy start. The Oilers ripped off Pittsburgh's Crosby playbook and worked to insulate McDavid with "his" people, and trust...

It wouldn't surprise me to hear him work some Red Wings broadcasts as well. I can see the possibility, but I wonder how that would work. Considering he's a Tigers hire and not a Bally hire, he's essentially an Ilitch employee. Could Ilitch just plug him into a Wings game whenever Ken Daniels isn't ...

The Tigers have hired former White Sox play-by-play man Jason Benetti as their new TV play-by-play voice on Bally Sports. https://www.freep.com/story/sports/mlb/tigers/2023/11/09/detroit-tigers-jason-benetti-sign-multi-year-contract-play-by-play-announcer-espn/71515604007/ Benetti, 40, comes here af...

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...
