Frazier is getting smoked right now, not sure why we ran wide and right behind our backup guard twice in a row

Apparently it needs to keep being said, absolutely nothing Dylan wants or feels in this situation matters even a teeny tiny bit. He has 5 years left on the contract he signed and Detroit can accept or negotiate whatever the hell they want until then.
Darren Dreger: Re Dylan Larkin: It is the belief of the player and his representatives that Shawn Horcoff should be negotiating off of what is on the table; teams are growing frustrated because he's not willing to do that just yet - Morning Show/McKenna & Starr (11/4) ____ NHLRR: Reports suggest offers have been thrown at Detroit and parameters discussed, but hard negotiations remain very limited

This is gonna go down as an all time ump performance in the ABS era
2026 PitchingNinja Award for Greatest Final Game by an Umpire. 🏆 Winner: Laz Diaz's Revenge against ABS In his final game behind the plate, Laz went a perfect 4-for-4 on ABS challenges. Then, after he could no longer be challenged, he gave Justin Verlander a strike call off the plate for one of JV's final Ks in his last start. And when Verlander leaves the mound, Laz gave him a salute. 🫡 An umpire going out on his own terms. 😂⚾️

STATEMENT FROM JACK CAMPBELL My family and I want to sincerely thank everyone for the overwhelming amount of love, prayers, and support we’ve received over the past few days. It means more to us than words can express. I’m incredibly encouraged by the progress I’ve made in such a short period of time. I have full movement in my lower body, and I’m continuing to make progress with movement in my upper body. I know there’s still work ahead, but I remain very optimistic. I’m taking things one day at a time, staying positive, and focusing on getting better. My faith in God has never been stronger. I know He has a plan for me, and I trust in that plan. I know there may be challenges ahead, but with my faith, my family, and so many people in my corner, I know we’ll get through this. I especially want to thank the athletic trainers and medical personnel who responded and cared for me on the field. I know those were difficult moments, and I’m incredibly grateful for the professionalism, compassion, and care you showed me. The way you handled everything and looked after me when I needed it most is something I’ll never forget. From the bottom of my heart, thank you. I also can’t say enough about the incredible care I’ve received from the medical team at Henry Ford Hospital and the Detroit Lions medical staff. They’ve been amazing to me and my family throughout this process, and I’m truly grateful for everything they’ve done. To my teammates, coaches, and everyone in the Lions organization, I want you to know how much I love and appreciate you. This team is a family to me, and the way everyone has been there for me means everything. I’m proud to be a Detroit Lion and couldn’t ask to be surrounded by a better group of people. One thing I’ve learned about Detroit is that this city is built on toughness, resilience, and grit. That’s exactly how I’m going to approach this challenge. Please continue to keep me and my family in your prayers. We feel the love, and I can’t thank everyone enough. God is good. My faith is strong. Jack Campbell

This isn’t the flex everyone thinks it is. Those CFP games will go head-to-head with NFL games.
First at FOS: The CW is eyeing more College Football Playoff games and TNT Sports rights. With Skydance carrying nearly $80 billion in debt, the network is pitching its 100-million home reach to leagues whose rights may become available. frontofficesports.com/articl…

It's pretty difficult for me to dig in or really celebrate victory Monday with Jack Campbell and his family on my mind. ☹️ The W don't really matter to me rn

Damn. Just brutal, I hope we get some improvement overnight, this is horrifying
Jack Campbell is resting and will remain in a local hospital tonight, for continued evaluation and monitoring. The team will provide further updates as we have them.

WOW what a play by Reed

Such an odd uva football season. Bad qb choice in the off season, and some bad injury luck have been deadly. Also the coaches don’t seem to know what a sunk cost is, regarding qbs. Gotta think there’s a good chance the kids pack it in and quit, especially in the transfer era

Moritz Seider on Red Wings beating Blackhawks on the day Dylan Larkin left the team: "It meant a little more. I think it came down to that this is our squad and we got a really good group in here."

"Look at what's happening in Dearborn, Michigan!" Me, just minding my business, eating 3 coney dogs with a side of fries today:
Ramaswamy: Look at what's happening in Dearborn, Michigan. We're not going to let that come to our state of Ohio.
