Don’t Even Joke About That

I think we’ve been fair to most non-Jerry Green Detroit sports journalists around these here parts. And we continue to aim for nothing but respect for our news and information providers.

Except you, Lynn Henning. Shut your insider face:

Meanwhile, there are corner outfielders galore: Ordonez [sic], Thames, Raburn, Guillen, Brent Clevlen, Clete Thomas, as well as prospects Matt Joyce and the rapidly rising Wilkin Ramirez.

It’s why the Tigers, should they continue to tumble, will face a painful decision to trade a premier player: Ordonez [sic].

Why … why would you even say that? (Even if it’s remotely true?) You can’t possibly suggest, good sir, that the Detroit Tigers ship away He With The Spiraly Locks to a less deserving team, when The Sheff is just sitting right there, collecting dust.

Is that it? Is it a money issue? Henning says that Rico Tilde is owed $48 million over the next three years. If that’s the case, we can start a thebigtilde.com bake sale to raise the money. With a little elbow grease and a can-do attitude, we can save the Tigers money problems!

I mean, we can’t continue to do a Tigers/Magglio Ordoñez fan blog without the two entities being one. This was half the reason FreeDarko, after the Milicic trade, ceased to post, then immediately crumbled, caught on fire, and sank into the ocean.
