I'm sure the kick-Detroit-while-it's-down contingent is celebrating, though.

1. ESPN said that this was not a done deal

I really hope not. Detroit is a contender now each year. To get rid of their core players is a real shame.

2. Tiger has no fans now that the second porn queen has been revealed...

...oh wait, not him you say...oh, the TIGERS. My mistake.

4. believe me, ESPN's conned me many times on that

They say they have Tiger news and it's about HIM, not my beloved team.

3. (sl came out wrong)I was focusing my dislike on the Yankees and DBacks

Tigers I don't hate or like. Daniel Schlereth is Mark Schlereth's(NFL Live-OL Broncos) son if you were wondering if you already knew sorry. He looked good in games I saw him play in and I think this is his first year so that could work out for your team. Anyhow go Rockies!!

5. My heart is breaking

Granderson and Polanco were my two favorite players. Dave Dombrowski, himself, told me two years ago that they would never trade Granderson....:cry:

It's in the Detroit papers too: http://www.freep.com/article/20091208/SPORTS02/91208048/1321/Tigers-trade-of-Jackson-Granderson-almost-done

6. Dave Crombrowski probably couldn't have predicted how bad the economy would be

with Detroit, of course, being hardest hit of all.

7. Dombrowski! Too late to edit. n/t

8. what caused this move by them

was the assanine extension they gave Dontrell Willis.

9. I'm gutted, this is shite.

Grandy a Yankee. Ugh. I loved watching these guys. Now it's like a bunch of strangers.

10. As a Pirates fan, I have had that feeling for the last 17 years.

It's a bunch of new strangers every couple of months.
