By the way, the day after his first Townsend bender he went 2 for 5.
So hopefully he got drunk early today. _________________ To a 5'6" guy in AFFLICTION gear? Are you serious? No problem. Bring them to me. Tossing midgets is fun.

Post subject:
I played Legion baseball the summers after my junior and senior years of high school.
Every weekend for the entire summer, we had doubleheaders on Sunday starting at noon.
The players on the team (not the coaches) instituted a "no drinking on Saturday nights" rule for the season. Keep in mind this is a bunch of douchebag kids who are on the fringe of playing D-II or D-III baseball. I think we had one kid play at CMU.
I can't remember one time someone coming to a game hungover. I'm not saying people didn't break the rule the night before, but no one was getting Cabrera drunk. And this was on a LEGION team.
I can't imagine what the other guys on the Tigers think of the guy.
I don't have a problem with someone who drinks. But if you are a professional athlete and you willingly choose to waste your talent in that way, you deserve any ramifications that are coming to you.
There are bigger consequences when you are public figure and a lot more to lose. It's just the nature of the beast. It's like Ricky Williams getting high. That's what he wanted to do and the NFL told him to fuck himself until he got his head on straight (though I don't doubt that the guy still finds away to hit a spliff every now and then).
He's not a bad guy for getting hammered. He's just making horrible decisions that could ultimately impact his career if he doesn't get it figured out. I don't feel bad for him in that regard even if I do wish him well. He can afford any treatment, therapy, detox, whatever that he needs.
They're in the worst division in baseball and they're playing game #163 tomorrow.
Something tells me the Yankees aren't worried about the Tigers dominating the AL for the next decade. _________________ To a 5'6" guy in AFFLICTION gear? Are you serious? No problem.

I'll take drunk Cabrera over almost anyone else in the majors. Not concerned about it. The only sad part of the story is he obviously can't keep his skank in check. But yeah no yeah let's totally trade him. I'm sure we can find another guaranteed 310+, 30 HR, 100 RBI guy.
However, if given the choice, I'd prefer the participants on my favorite team play the game sober...ish. _________________ Gerrard
No one blames you for being proud. Just like if the Tigers turned out to be a decent team, nobody would have said anything. You know, because you being wrong is normal. _________________ Gerrard

I am not sure a guy who admits he stopped watching the Tigers early in the season last year because of their inept play should be too involved in a conversation regarding "fair weather" fans.

He's not. I am.
He's involved in a conversation pointing out that you're always wrong.
Try to keep up. _________________

Someone please deny it.
NINE wins for MSU this year? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Sorry, they aren't that good.
The Tigers had to play Cabrera on Saturday. And they have to play him tonight.
Ilitch has invested whatever Million Dollars into this team. He isn't going to greatly limiting an opportunity to get some amount of that back in playoff sales by sitting out his best player.
It is ridiculous to even suggest he should be suspended. Everyone (teammates, owner, fans) gets hurt except the guy who committed the act, who gets a day off.
Trading him after the season is a legitimate response.
Fuck Cabrera. Fuck the Tigers for telling him it's ok to be wasted on game day. But more importantly, fuck the Twins. Tigers are winning tonight. _________________ Formerly known as Barry O.
The Tigers said everything was cool. Get wasted. Hit your wife. Get taken to jail. Pop a sky high breathalyzer number. Bat cleanup. All within 11 hours. _________________ Formerly known as Barry O.

Or maybe they said the Millions of dollars they can earn from a minimum of 1 home playoff game was more important than making a stupid statement that they don't allow ridiculous off the field behavior.
I have no problem with Ilitch making that decision. He has done too much for the fans.
You are looking at this in a far too short sighted way, Greg[g]. How about the money that Ilitch will earn from the remaining 810 games left on Cabrera's contract?
I'm not advocating that the Tigers make a statement just for the sake of making an example out of him. The Tigers need to protect their 100 million dollar investment. Ilitch can't afford to have Cabrera turn into Dmitri Young, and that's exactly where this is headed. Remember how DY couldn't take at bats or pinch hit because he was so wasted? Is it that much of a stretch to see that Cabrera is on that road now?
If Cabrera can pop a .26 on the morning of what is essentially a playoff game, then he sure as hell can show up wasted for some regular season game in the dog days of summer.
If the Tigers are going to be relevant in the years ahead, they need Verlander, Porcello, Jackson, and Cabrera at full strength. The Tigers can't afford, MONETARILY, to let Cabrera get away with this now. _________________ Formerly known as Barry O.

I'm not saying that he didn't hit his wife but this card is being a little overplayed.
As I heard somebody say yesterday isn't it possible that the scratches etc., happened as she was trying to wrestle the phone away from him?
I mean really there are a million ways that could have gone.
Painting the picture to be that he came home and beat her up is a little much without more evidence. _________________ To a 5'6" guy in AFFLICTION gear? Are you serious? No problem. Bring them to me.

You probably didn't hear the 911 call. The 911 operator asked if he hit her, and she said yes. Plus the police report indicated that she had a scratch or mark on her lip. _________________ Formerly known as Barry O.

I did hear it.
I just wasn't entirely convinced.
Again, not saying that he didn't do it, just saying that he probably doesn't deserve to be labeled a wife beater just yet. _________________ To a 5'6" guy in AFFLICTION gear? Are you serious?

You're so busy being stupid and two faced that you can't keep up using shit that's ACTUALLY true so I'll give that.
I backed down from a bet I never accepted.
I'm a wifebeater.
And an angry drunk.
All true right Greg[g]?
The next time you get on Shake or anybody else for resorting to this dogshit you'll look like a hypocrite.
But you're used to that. _________________ To a 5'6" guy in AFFLICTION gear? Are you serious? No problem. Bring them to me. Tossing midgets is fun. There's a kid at the gym that I go to who rocks a UFC hat and all this other garbage. He probably weights a buck 40. It would be hilarious.
Anyone hear the press conference of Cancer Stick tonight?
Jennifer Hammond asked Leyland about the SCRATCHES on Miguel Cabrera's face today.
Cancer said that he didn't see them. THEY ARE EVIDENT.
BIG RUMOR is that he was WASTED last night. Drinking until 6 in the MORNING.
The scratches?
His girlfriend beat him up.
NO FUCKING JOKE.
On the eve of the biggest game of the year, OUR SUPERSTAR was ALLEGEDLY getting hammered and bitch-scratched by a broad.
And the only one in the MEDIA with the BALLS to even bring it up to Cancer Stick was JENNIFER HAMMOND.
I mean, you can't make this shit up!
The night just got worse.
