  • This year’s inductees? It’s more of the same: who actually belongs in the HOF and who doesn’t?

  • At the risk of putting you to sleep, the latest from the boys on the Disastrous Detroit Tigers.

  • What did Coach K know and when did he know it?

  • The Tigers are in first place! But they still have to pass “The Eli Zaret Litmus Test.” Bob explains.
  • The Pistons are hanging on to a playoff spot by a thread. Better off missing the postseason and getting into the lottery?
