Billfer, I really wish you hadn’t told me I made 117 comments this year. I really need to get a life. Anyway, great job with the site this year, and Happy New Year.

This is one of my favorite blogs which I visit almost on a daily basis. You have a wonderful way with words, Billfer, and you also provide pertinent and accurate information. Yes, I still watch Magg’s homerun and tear up every time.

*** PS just to be clear Joeys comments were directed at the wack job of an individual that was totally out of control that day not Bill. I did not ID my “him” very well. English and writing were never good for me . I did well in the lunch room and study hall however.

Happy New Year to all……….

Can we get either some Tiger BLOG tee shirts or Neifi must go coffee mugs. jk

I agree, the in game has to stay. Its kinda of like taking a trip with your buddies and listening to a game on the radio. That and the Joey C comments are usually good stuff on game days. One of Joeys best posts is now in the rafters at Bills house, only read by a few after one of the regular guys here got a game misconduct from Bill and Joey unloaded on him.

>> If it can be done, I am all for a seperate in game thread, It does get a bit long when the count gets to be 100 or so.

Ken is it time for the oatmeal pies yet?

Yeah, the in-game commentary has to stay. Maybe there’s a simple way for billfer to divide the in-game from the post-game?

I have been a great fan of this site. I enjoy the commentary and Neifi bashing. We can only hope the Tigers have the wisdom to take the hit for a couple million and release this menace to our team.

Coach Jim,

I understand where you’re coming from, but am I the only one who would be very disappointed if in-game commentary was blocked. I greatly enjoyed talking to fellow bloggers while I watched the game from Cinci (where nobody cares about the Tigers). The comments like “Nice hit, Maggs” helped to build the excitement for me and the blogg community atmosphere. It also helps bookmark key turning points in the game. Is it really that obnoxious to have to scroll past them? I’ll try to avoid senseless and tired commentary as a compromise.

I came aboard in the middle of the season. I’m sure I’ll join the other “elite” posters in 2007. The key, is to always have something valuable to say.

One of the things I wish “we” would avoid is in-game comments. That is, during the 6th inning someone posts “nice hit by Inge.” Bilfer doesn’t have to put any rules in place, it’s just up to the USERS. Sometimes its’ a drag to come look at a thread in the morning, but there are 68 replies to the game wrap with stuff like that. I always wait until the game is over before adding my two cents.

On the other hand, if that is the will of the free market, who am I to gripe?

Sir: Well done. Excellent recap. And I have the Mags walk-off game on TiVo, watch it often, and it still gives me chills. And in spite of the World Series lose, this was a great year.

An amazing and memorable year. May there be many more contending years to come.

And Jeff, I’d really appreciate it if you’d let me win the most-frequest-poster thing. I lost in both my fantasy football leagues in heart-breaking fashion this past weekend (much like the Tigers, now that I think about it; amazing runs to the championship game only to lose on a couple bonehead decisions). This is all I have left!

BTW, I like the subtle changes you made to the layout, especially the BLOCKQUOTE style.

And no, I’m not trying to run up my comment count.

First I can’t believe that people actually care what I have to say about the Tigers

It’s really pretty simple: You never waste our time. When you have something insightful to say, you say it well. When you don’t, you don’t try to force it. You also do a wonderful job rounding up the other news.

Many thanks for driving the bus this year.

Kyle J was the most prolific commentor this year, but a late push by Jeff M could put him over the top.

If you count the 9 posts I had as Jeff Mo (trying to avoid the spam-blocker), I have a narrow lead.
