Wings playoff hockey> semi meaningless Tigers game?
First game of the season against division rivals, and their ace Liriano is supposed to pitch.
regular season. Chill out and have a beer. There will be 130 other times you can watch the Tigers.
You've got one hell of a case there, man.
Screw that stupid Stanley Cup; every team has one sitting in their locker room anyway.
Really? It still does not trump game 7, or any game, of a playoff series.
Game 7 trumps all. Sorry, bud. I'm as big a Tigers fan as the next guy, but nothing touches a Game 7 in the Stanley Cup Playoffs.
No Tigers game is meaningless......Now the Braves are another story.
It was setting up to be a magical season. Chipper and Bobby Cox ride off into the sunset with a WS ring. Now Chippers hurt and everyone else forgot how to play baseball.
Well shit, now I'm sad.
FSN+ works fine.
The Tigers game is on FSN Detroit + Channel 901 if you have Comcast and live in the Grand Rapids area.
Can't find the damn game....I just put in Storm Seekers with Daryl Hannah.
From FSD's website, FSD+ is located in one of the following groupings: 444-453 or 473-478
Ask and ye shall receive.
Channel 476. You are a life saver.
Show me in cash.
Yea it's just on FSN plus. 1738 for ATT u-verse users
Baseball sux.
You guys are right, I should like baseball. Over 100 games at over 3 hours each. That's exciting stuff. Pitch one ball... 10 minutes later after the pitcher tries to throw out the guy at first twice and we get a second pitch... another ball? If that's not entertainment then I don't know what is. The only exciting part about a baseball game is the homeruns, and that's a pretty short lived excitement. The 100+ game season is what kills it for me.
Lets make sure you post about your opinion as much as possible.
Or, we can admit that we have different sports we like and move on.
Pitching duels like tonight are the best to watch. :D
Maybe you'll learn to appreciate the game in the future. It's a little hard to get into at first I'll admit. But don't give up on it, it's a great game.
I'd rather sit at my computer and photoshop a hamster and a dinosaur together.
If I wasn't so exhausted right now, I would take the outline of a baseball and put "Worst Sport Ever" inside of it.
If I had any editing skills, I would do that. I'm sure it has been done before.
Since I also have no image input skills:

Are the Wings in the Big Ten?
They are both going to win. Book it
The wings could be in the big ten all we would have to do is create a 100000000 team super-mega conference and include every team that ever existed.
1996. The Wings were playing the St. Louis Blues in the Stanley Cup Playoffs. I'm watching the game with a group of friends. The scoring is tight. We were all on the edge of our seats. You could cut the intensity with a knife...SUDDENLY!...ESPN cuts to a fu**en BASEBALL game because Dwight FU**EN Gooden is pitching a no hitter! ARRRGGGGH! WTF!
Have you any idea how long it takes for a pitcher to deal a single pitch? ( /rhetorical ) Let alone get three guys out? We were all losing our fu**en minds. Every pitch someone in the room would yell out something like: "HOMERUN!" OR "FU**EN HIT IT!"
By the time Gooden finished his no-no the Wings had scored. We were happy the Wings had scored to be sure, but we were pissed as hell about missing the playoffs for a no hitter by a guy who didn't even play for our team.
Moral of the story....NHL playoffs > anything baseball related
I was hoping this thread was started by the_big_house 500th.
Love that guy's hockey takes
I thought the same thing when I clicked on this thread. I was sad when I found out it wasn't.
I bet he'll start a thread by the time the puck drops.

He started this one last night.
that's probably irrelevant.
Let's get this negbang started right! C'mon!!
I love the Tigers as much as the next guy, but this is playoff hockey. Game 7 no less. Do you honestly think FSD is gonna bump Game 7 for Tiger's game #21 of 162? Dan Dickerson and Jim Price do a fine job calling a Tiger's game if you don't have FSN plus.
I was saying at least bump them...to an alternate channel. They have done it before. I'm just not a hockey fan at all...never have been.
Really? I'm as big a Tigers fan as I am a Wings fan, and I'm pretty sure I'd be irritated if FS Detroit DIDN'T have the playoff game on.
Sorry I had to play with the new text box

My only request is that the Fox Sports Plus channels start broadcasting in HD whenever possible.
I guess the Wings were fine. *shrug*
