Hayes has been looking good for the past month or so.

Hayes has been looking good for the past month or so.

Since Nov 9 against the Celtics I've wondered who the hell is this guy? He's still has a long way to go but it's good to see from the perspective of maybe we shouldn't disregard a young player so immediately.

I'd love to see this happen.

Ken Kal's voice cracking when saying, "Touchdown Detroit Lions!"

Jack Morris won’t be calling Tigers games this season..Thank God. Also Dan Campbell will be talking to the Mannings on ESPN 2 during the game tonight

 

[Ed Ned and Leddy]

Alright alright alright

Briefly saw the Tigers' Farm system is ranked last in the league according to the Athletic. Well that's not good.

It depends to some extent how bullish or bearish you are on their last top picks, Jobe, Madden and Jung. For the first time in years, they have also IFAs among their top prospects in Flores and Santana, who came up a bit as dark horses. Last year also several prospects graduated (like Torkelson, Greene, Brieske, Faedo, Wentz and Kreidler). I am not saying that the Tigers have a top farm system, but this might explain a bit why some outlets deem theirs rather weak.

Good news for once on the Michigan sports TV front....Ballys Sports regional networks are now being offered on Fubotv. Previously, you were pretty much stuck with Directv if you wanted them. Kinda sucks for me because I already payed up for Ballys Sports + for Tigers and Pistons access, and Im technically out of market for the Wings so I get them on espn+. But at least this provides another way to watch!

Nice.

Idk man I liked Bey. Haven’t been following the pistons lately though. Could be a boom or bust thing.

Pistons weren’t going to pay Bey…and I’m glad

I liked him too but I guess he was about to get paid and they weren’t prepared to cough up what he wants. We got a guy in return who is only a few years removed from being the 2nd overall pick. Had a lot of injuries. Did score 30 points just a few weeks back. Let’s hope he can deliver on his potential. Being in Detroit though, probably not.

Wiseman is starting for the Pistons tonight

 

[BSHH]

Even if Wiseman rebounds, don't the Pistons have a lot of centers already? Stewart and Duren are already on the roster and they have a decent chance at practically having to draft another C...

Yep. Would be a great time to have extra picks to trade for a wing player. But no such luck.

Wiseman trade on hold because Gary Payton jr failed his physical…Warriors have to decide wether or not to push trade through since he could be out 3 months

As I understand it, the salary difference between Wiseman and Payton Jr is enough to save the Warriors like $30+ million in luxury tax. I’m guessing they uphold the trade.

They wanted him to primarily be a 3 and D guy who didn't stall the offense. He wants differently for himself. He's also become worse on defense. It's too bad.

But I'm not that excited about Wiseman. Could just be another asset to flip.

Finally history was made: The Lions made it to the Superbowl!

Man, Michigan looked rudderless without Luke Hughes. I don't wholly buy them as a contender with him in the lineup. It could be a real short post season without him.

 

[RabidBadger]

I saw some footage from Tigers spring camp. Miggy the Hutt is far from being in shape. At least pretend you want to go out like a boss. His swan song is going to be painful.
