17th in points, scored 23 a game

Yep, yards per game they were great, but alot of those were garbage yards when the D (ranked 27th in points allowed per game) had already given up sooo many points and the Lions were down a few touchdowns.

Actually Mr. Ford is the perfect boss to work for.... there is alot of job security even if you don't win, look how long a guy like Marinelli lasted (nearly 50 games despite a .208 "winning" %) or Millen as the GM. Also Ford allows the GM to spend to the cap and the stadium is pretty nice. Mr. Ford is the furthest thing from a needy, always involved owner like Snyder or Jones.

No they were ranked 17th in points scored last year at just over 23 points per game. Also their D stunk ranked 27th in points allowed.

The key word being right now. Let's see what happens to this team when Davis cools off. You are already starting to see Nate cool down. Jones is hitting 30 points higher than his career average.

He does have his name on Lord Stanley (via a game 7 road W no less)....something Vokoun does not.

Agreed, impossible not to respect what he has accomplished. Anyone who doesn't respect his performance over the years is just letting their anti-yankees emotions show through.

I'm surprised they are actually decent this season.

Posted Friday May 17, 2013, About: Tigers 'looking hard' for arms

Francona has them playing pretty well, but the Indians starting pitching is suspect. A 4.44 ERA (9th of 15 team in the AL) isn't going to cut it over a 162 game season.

Posted Friday May 17, 2013, About: Tigers 'looking hard' for arms

The starting rotation (at least 1-4) is in great shape so long as Verlander's awful outing doesn't become an ongoing event. Starters team ERA ranks 3rd in the AL, but the relievers ranks 9th, not terrible but not good enough to win a WS especially with guys like Phil Coke (7.59 ERA and 1.31 WHIP)

Posted Tuesday May 07, 2013, About: A-Rod won't guarantee 2013 return

Yankees starters have a combined ERA of 3.70, if they maintain that it won't matter when/if Arod, Tex, Granderson, etc get back on the field. With starting pitching like that, they will win alot of games, just like they have been. I'm surprised they're playing .600 ball right now.

4,
Charles Rogers
Roy Williams
Mike Williams and
Calvin Johnson. At least CJ is an all time great, but Rogers had a well known drug problem in college (Mich St.) but was a hometown boy, Roy Williams was ok, Mike Williams took a year off in college before entering the draft and wasn't a hard worker in the least. Ugh!

Millen set them back sooooo far, now when the current GM (Mayhew) has a draft that results in one or two decent starters, fans think he's doing GREAT! The bar is sooo low it's just sad.

Definitely good for him, he was a ticking time bomb at the enormous weight. He has a new book coming out, apparently all about him and his estranged son Prince. To think they use to be best friends. Prince use to hit batting practice home runs at old Tiger Stadium when he was just 13 years old, amazing.

Yikes, that would be a scary decline.

Ya I heard that stat this morning, just amazing.

Yep all that extra weight has to got wear down your joints and body at some point.

William Clay Ford Sr. is worse. He hires Matt Millen and despite awful records year after year, Millen last EIGHT seasons with a record 31-85. The Detroit Lions are one of a handful of teams that have NEVER been to the Super Bowl. They have ONE playoff win since 1970 and only one conference game apperance, that got whacked 41-10 in that game.

I agree, but I think it will only go 6 if Carmelo can score 40+ against the Heat in multiple games. I'm skeptical he can do that against Miami's defense. I don't particularly like the Heat, but they're are just head and shoulders better than everyone else this season.

Posted Tuesday April 30, 2013, About: Time to count out the Jays

Agreed, he's been alot of fun to watch in the 180+ games he's been with Detroit. He'd be even better if he lost 50 lbs. That said the last few years of that deal are going to look really, really bad.

But this season is different for the Knicks they'll win every playoff series until they face the Heat. Then the Knicks will likely get crushed in 5, maybe 6 games.

For his size he's surprisingly quick on the bases.
