Number one! Kansas City vs. Green Bay. On a black-and-white TV. How's that for age!
Age yourself by naming the first Super Bowl you remember watching. I’ll start: Panthers vs. Patriots.

Needed a press conference to announce the obvious? I'd like to see the results of the "fan feedback".
Tim Spence, chairman, CEO and president of Fifth Third, said #Tigers fan feedback was solicited before deciding on the ballpark’s new name.

If only @MLB had a Commissioner.
Doug Eddings got into with the Cardinals manager earlier in the game, so he called the runner safe here out of spite even after review. He absolutely must be fired. There’s no way an umpire can be doing this in an MLB game

Enjoy your Ted Lasso, give me Koufax pitching to Mr. Ed anytime.
In 1961, Sandy Koufax sets the NL strikeout record with 269 but Mr. Ed spoils the celebration with an inside-the-park home run:

Now the @tigers need to retire uniform number 29 and put Mickey Lolich's number on that darn wall!

2/2 In the midst of all this trade nonsense, has anyone noticed that the Houston Astros are now in first place in the AL West? I'll be more upset if the Tigers trade Casey Mize than losing Skubal. I still thing the @tigers will win the division. Now, back to @CFLonTSN

Random baseball ramblings. Wore my #Tigers hat to grocery shopping. Unidentified customer spots it and loudly berated the Tigers for trading Tarik Skubal. Then said he was happy to hear the news that the Tigers and Pistons are being sold. What?? 1/2

Hard to believe that a Major League sport could sink so low on so many levels in its showcase event. If the #NBA had a Commissioner it might have headed off last nights embarrassment.

I've been fascinated by this sign ever since I saw it on TV as a kid. I always thought it was right behind the Green Monster and I was shocked when I finally visited the park in person how far away it actually is from the park. That's one seriously big sign!
News: The Citgo Sign is being moved. It will go dark for at least 6 months as crews prepare to move it 120 feet east and 30 feet upward from its current location. It is unclear how this will impact its view from Fenway Park. (via @bycathcarlock)

Not much going right for the @Mets these days
The US Olympic figure skating team threw the first pitch at the Mets game today and it did not seem to go as planned

Day 4: kitkats held hostage.
Some days you can’t love social media enough. This is one of those days. It began like this. Someone stole 12 tons of KitKats. And then the replies started coming in. Scroll down.
