A Reason To Like The Tigers

Now this is a good open thread post. There’s been a ton of great pictures from the early spring training workouts, and the Tigers photos have been the most beautiful by far. Thank you, Bryan, for posting something worthwhile (and not something related to cycling, your personal life, or something that’s a poor attempt at being funny).

It’s also worth noting that the Tigers do this typically every year.

I’m pretty sure this development would stop me from watching hockey. I’d rather be a walking billboard to raise money for a team than have to watch that crap on the ice.

A back-handed compliment if ever there was one.

So I was on overstock.com trying to find a good deal on a HDTV and I started clicking around in the sporting goods just to see what they had, and to my surprise, one can buy game used Yankees pants. Granted they are mostly from relief pitchers and back-up catchers (hello, Sal Fasano and Kelly Stinnett), but I just thought that it was kind of odd.

[quote comment=”226582″]Speaking of Tigers uniforms, what numbers do the new guys have? Something tells me Verlander didn’t sell #35 to Willis…[/quote]
The link says Willis took #21 (last worn by Sean Casey?) and Cabrera got his standard #24 – don’t know if anyone had that # last year or not.

Not sure what would make Crain wear that, but in his defense, the Twins don’t officially report until today…

Yep, the Tigers look good and Crain doesn’t but I think Iverson said it best:

“It’s easy to sum it up if you’re just talking about practice. We’re sitting here and we’re talking about practice. I mean listen, we’re sitting here talking about practice, not a game, not a game, not a game, but we’re talking about practice. How silly is that? I know it’s important, I honestly do but we’re talking about practice. We’re talking about practice man. We’re talking about practice. We’re talking about practice. We’re not talking about the game. We’re talking about practice. Hey I hear you, it’s funny to me too, hey it’s strange to me too but we’re talking about practice man, we’re not even talking about the game, when it actually matters, we’re talking about practice.”

Question for the font nerds:
In this picture, the Harvard team has numbers that look like the original Montreal Expos. Does this font have a name?

I do not understand the big hoopla about teams advertising soooo they put one ad (soccer style) on the chest or on the lower back like a tramp stamp… that’s what I saw in the picture it there was a Panasonic logo going down the arms and a prudential logo on the chest.

Is it really going to make you hate the sport that much and love the game you’ve love since a child and all that junk!? If it helps the teams and the league more good… what they should do is get rid of those teams in the weird cities like Phoenix or San Jose … Carolina can stay cause they were the Whalers who had the coolest jerseys.

I love those Tiger unis. Classic!

My point was the Giants logo is kind of blah for a 50th anniversary. Plus I was trying to stick up for the Bay Bridge, which has always been the bastard stepchild of bridges even though it is quite link (Eastern span only) AND right next to the ballpark. The GG bridge is kind of cliche.

BTW, I can’t think of anything else LA is known for besides traffic and plastic surgery.

On another Michigan-related sports note, I just watched the Michigan-Ohio State game and I noticed that while U-M’s jerseys are definitely made by Under Armor, most of the benchwarmers seemed to still be wearing the Nike warmups.

And if you look at the bride on the patch it resembles both the Golden Gate Bridge and the section of the Bay Bridge linked to in the picture.

yes, it will also be one more in an amazingly long list of fuck ups but Buttman while running this league into the ground. I swear that a-hole is still working for the NBA considering the decisions that he makes for the NHL.

They estimate they can make *up to* $30M/year. That means the league would be selling its soul for only up to $1M for each team coffers.

Ads ever appear on a NHL sweater. Bettman only mirrors the 3 other major pro leagues. For example, the NFL gets ugly designed rbk jerseys, the nhl does. Bettman would never make a move to make the NHL more like a minor sport such as the MLS.

“Basically, my management group is the brother of Wayne Gretzky’s manager, and just developed a relationship and it just started,” he explained. “So we’re excited about that.” The Oregon native added: “I’m still learning a lot about the sport,” he said. “I definitely go to the hockey games when I’m back in town. I’m actually going to drop the puck I think next week, and they are going to make me my own jersey, which is kind of fun to do.”

Just ringing in another eeek about the NBA All-Star uni’s. As a former stat crew guy, I feel way sorry for the stat crew on this game trying to make sense of home vs. visitor plays.

was watching the ASG with my 8 year old nephew who summed it up best… “It looks like four different teams are playing!”

was the home team determined by the front color or the back color….

NBA’s “System of Backward” All-Star Unis fits the direction of the League…straight backward…so I think you have to give them credit for getting it right or wrong…I’m confused, who’s the East and who’s the West…

Doesn’t Iverson play for Philly? And Kidd for Phoenix? No? They don’t, really? Yeah, the NBA went the way of Kid’N’Play…

everything else was horrible

To SoCalPM: Also thanks to you for playing (and well, too, that was a great team you were on). Thnaks for the info… Although it’s never easy to lose to to ucla, it may take the sting out if it results in vere seeing those horrible black uni’s again !!!

BTW, I think our crosstown friends, the brewskis, tried black a few years ago, lost big in them and then dumped black forever – I hope we do the same.

PS I noticed that PC was at the game – in a white sweater.

My bigest objection was that both NBA all star uni’s contained white – on the front of one and on the back of another; so when you had an offensive player facing a backing-up defender they both looked like they were on the same team.

I know in some D-3 hoops leagues, teams play all their games on Fridays and Saturdays, and the home team will wear whites on Fridays and then darks on Saturdays. Perhaps the Ivy League is like that?
