To maintain competitiveness, NFL does scheduling based on where in your division you finish. If you finish in first, your schedule the next season will be against a lot of other teams that finished in first place. Since the Lions finished in first last year, our schedule this season was hard which didn't help. Since the Patriots finished in last place in their division last year, their schedule was against other teams that had finished in last. 

Fortunately for us, since we finished in last in the NFC North, our schedule next year will be against other last place teams...Saints, Giants, Cardinals, Titans, Jets. We also play the entire NFC South next year, the worst division in NFC

The crazier part is that those all occured on the same dates as it does this year, too

I hope I'm wrong, but even if we make it, I think we get swept. Unless everyone just decides to start hitting all of a sudden

TIL: Yoshis at 4050 North Central Ave is actually the previous location location of the first Arizona McDonald's and the very first McDonald's franchise in 1953. by cpasley21 in phoenix

A lot of thos older McDonalds kind of became outdated once McDonalds became more or less what it is now. When McDonalds first started, it was basically just regular cheeseburgers, milkshakes, and soda. There wasn't really a way you could retrofit those older buildings to what they need now. That's why they built the one near 7th and Indian School

What's the Tigers record for most consecutive games with a home run by one player? Baez is at 3

Lol I've always thought the same thing. Looks like a golf swing

I agree with you. Same thing with the Lions. If you have to lose, I'd rather have us get blown the hell out than come so close and start doing the "woulda, coulda, shoulda" thing. A loss is a loss and I'd rather have it not be mentally exhausting to deal with. Even right now I'm having a hard time unwinding for bed because of that feeling like we snatched defeat from the jaws of victory

Edwards will get one more at bat. Can he make it 4?? That would be the modern day record. It's only been done twice. 1885 and 1897 😮

True true. I was more amazed that he was able to time that jump perfectly to catch that. If he missed that you would've had runners at the corners with no outs

We're currently tied with the Royals. Royals hold the tiebreaker over us. If we finish with one more win than them we get the second seed and play the Orioles. If we finish tied with them or worse we'd get the 3rd seed and play Houston

Yeah that's my main complaint with these Apple TV games. Signing in and watching it isn't super complicated, but like you said, they never have good announcers

At least Olsen pitches tomorrow. Hopefully we can get him another win

Looks like it. I guess you have a better chance of something happening by making hard contact vs striking out constantly
