Howard Kurtz’s show has been canned. He obviously didn’t pump the Trump party line hard enough.

Carlos Monarrez is wet with joy over the Lions' loss Sunday. It saves him from covering the Tigers' team he declared dead in the water a month ago. freep.com/story/sports/c…

As someone who played a lot of right field at St. Francis and Burt Playground, this song always hits with me: youtube.com/watch?v=zslUua…

In August, Carlos Monarrez wrote in the Detroit Free Press that Tigers GM Scott Harris had screwed up and not done enough to improve a team that had been among the best in baseball in 2025. That team's magic number is down 12 and Monarrez has not written a word about them since.

Goodbye, Lake Vermillion. It was a pleasure to spend the weekend with you. No Tv. No radio. Very relaxing and nurturing.

Is there anything better than grilling at the cabin?

I understand Carlos Monarrez of the Free Press is annoyed but that was a hard fought win for the Tigers tonight. Great teams find a way to win games when they are not at their best. So it was tonight. Congrats, boys. Sorry, Carlos.

Wishing a Happy Retirement to my friend and (now former) colleague John Millea. From the time he covered the Saints (when I was the PR guy) right through his long tour with the MSHSL, he has always been a compassionate professional. Welcome to the club, John. Enjoy every day.

The Free Press’ Carlos Monarrez is giddy tonight. The Tigers have lost three of their past four games. Their lead is now six games over Cleveland. Carlos wrote the other day that the Tigers will fall apart and GM Scott Harris will get fired. Happy Days for Monarrez.

Great story. We need to see stories like this to keep the faith we will be alright.

"A government big enough to give you everything you want, is a government big enough to take away everything that you have." That says it all.

Brit, you are amazing. No matter what Trump does, you find a way to defend it. No matter what anybody says or writes that is in the least bit anti-Trump, you find a way to defend it. You are truly earnign your millions from Fox.

Okay, Trumpeters. Please explain to me why firing the person who reported the new employment figures is helpful.

My mother did. She felt Dad was a danger to himself and his family. She had him hospitalized. I was 2 years old. As a result, I barely knew him. It was a painful decision but it was the right one. If you see an issue with a loved one, don't wait. Do something.

As a person whose father suffered from mental illness, I can tell you that nothing about this illness fits into a neat package. The New York shooter's problems are unique to him. The question should be: Did his family -- or a physician know how deranged he was -- or could be?
