@DougAndGator971 I believe Harris would do some small deals or just sit pat. I believe any small moves will be done to either band-aid the bullpen, open up spots for injured guys to return to the line-up, and he wants to stay under the luxury tax line to ride Skubal for a 1st rd compensatory.
What a huge fail by the Red Wings to watch a divisional rival FLA alter their picks/roster via trade to Seattle to then use that to make the blockbuster trade with another divisional opponent Ottto land Brady Tkachuk for his last 2 years of the deal in hopes to extend him #LGRW
@DougAndGator971 Pistons having won both games at home by 10+ points didn't carry the momentum into Cleveland on the road. Cleveland has won all their home games, but still hasn't won a game away from home up to this point. So it seems the advantage is with the Pistons.
Earlier today we lost a local TV/Radio/Columnist legend in @patcaputo98 to cancer. Pat made a huge mark to so many... who worked with him, listened to him, or read his work. He was a wealth of knowledge in all sports aka "The Book". My condolences to his family and friends.
@JimCosta_ 6 days ago it seemed overly likely both Boston and Orlando were moving on as they were up 3-1... less than 5% chance historically of losing it. And here we are today with both Boston and Orlando choking it in the same round! The East is anyone's to grab now.
@realapp Is there a way that the daily draft in FC can be separated by league? In the past, it was manageable to come up with a roster for the EPL, but now there are just way too many teams from all the added leagues to pick the best 5 players for the day. It is just not worth the time.
@patcaputo98 Pat. You have been a pleasure to listen to over the years, and appreciate all of your wisdom and insight in Detroit sports. Cancer just sucks, and I'm so sorry you are going through it. I pray you will be healed completely and hope to hear you on the airwaves soon. God Bless!
There are fairly high concerns for a significant #Snow and #Ice storm from the Central Plains and Texas to the Southeast and Mid Atlantic over the weekend. And if that is not enough, much of the country east of the Rockies will be experiencing true #Polar air.
@DougAndGator971 It is possible, but not probable. I believe either GB or Chicago will lose 2 of 3 games, so the door would be open for Detroit for the "possible". However, the Lions haven't won b2b games in a while and lack an identity, thus to win 3 in-a-row to get in is "not probable".
@jdawgLGRW And to think Detroit could and SHOULD have just drafted Hughes at 6, but instead they drafted Zadina because he was too good to pass up after he fell from the top-3.
@ryanweather question for you. There is a huge amount of discrepancy in the temps between global models (probably too cold at times) and AI models (look too warm at times) in areas of snow cover. Do you know if AIs are taking that into account now or is this their learning process?
@riger1984 trending to be the worst weekend in Detroit sports. Lions lose, Bears win, ASB injured, Ragnow didn't clear exam, Lions not in playoffs, Wings fell from 1st to out of playoffs, Pistons lose both games to miss NBA Cup, Wolverines spanked, and it is only 3:45pm Saturday
For those going to the @Lions game or #Detroit#Thanksgiving parade on Thursday be sure to be layered up and safe driving. Not only will it be cold, but snow showers and the winds are still going to be gusting up to 30-40mph. This could also affect what they display at the parade
@DougAndGator971 5-2 is where I have them and I feel they have to get to that level to be comfortable about making the post-season as 10 wins may not be enough depending on tie-breakers. 5-2 might win the division, but if they go 6-1 then they'll definitely be hosting at least one game.
@DougAndGator971 I am going 37-33 Lions. This will need to be a game where the offense carries the team, and the defense up front does just enough. Alim and Hutch will get to the QB at times, but Baker will still make things happen to keep them in the game and make this kind of a shoot out.
@ryanweather It would make sense a continued warmer climate would weaken the overall wind gradient. As for fires there, I totally agree all are human induced. Dry thunderstorms do not occur in SAW events. SAW only make conditions favorable for induced fires by man to spread rapidly.
