In the second half of the podcast, the Jerks talk Lions
futility and the Tigers, shockingly, make a couple of solid moves
in free agency. Along with playing the birthday game and naming
Jerks of the Week, topics include:
The Lions will retain the services of Matt Patricia and Bob
Quinn, despite their train wreck 3-12-1 season. This will not end
well.
Does an admittedly soft "win or else" ultimatum from the Fords lead to questionable short-term decision making by the Lions' front office?
Shelia Ford Hamp is being groomed to take over the reigns of the franchise. But her "We're doing what's right for the organization" statement sounds suspiciously like "Mom is going to be 95 soon and we don't want to start over again."
The Fords confirm they will not be selling the team anytime soon, so can we put the "Sell the team!" trope to bed? It's not happening....at least not in our lifetimes.
Will Patricia's meat puppet/defensive coordinator Paul Pasqualoni become a sacrificial lamb?
The Tigers shore up the right side of their infield by signing CJ Cron and Johnathan Schoop, a pair of big league ballplayers with legit 20-30 home run power, About God damn time.
