10:32 AM SoulCaller ban: Stoney!
10:32 AM SoulCaller ban: I think Addias Pro Combats were a sad attempt by Addias to jump on that train started by Nike
10:32 AM Josh ban: For the tigers playoff rotation is Penny the odd man out and is the rotation verlander, fister,max, and porcello
10:32 AM Stoney971 ban: i actually like them..i think black would be better as far as the helmet goes..but i am alright with it
10:32 AM JoeBeezy ban: Stoney!
10:49 AM Josh: leyland loves crazy lineups, what would be your line up be for the playoffs
10:49 AM Stoney971: Tough question Beav..Death not an option I go with BTR
10:50 AM Blue Hawaii: age/sex/location
10:50 AM Lions4life: I get a feeling no. 15 will be the next statue and number retired by the Tigers
10:50 AM JoeBeezy: How soon before the Pistons come downtown to make our Downtown a pro sports Mecca?
10:51 AM DixonBawls313: Stoney, What did you think of Valenti's performance on Channel 7's Lions Pregame show?
10:51 AM SoulCaller: lol really guys?
10:51 AM SoulCaller: you get a chance to talk sports with Stoney and your in here bsing....shameful
10:51 AM Stoney971: lineup question..lets assume its a righty pitching.. AJax,Dirks,DY,Cabby,VMart,Avila,Perralta,Betamit,Santiago
10:51 AM grack: What are your opinions on the supposed MSU pro combat jerseys?
10:52 AM Stoney971: did not see the pregame show..sorry. i am sure he did well
10:52 AM Jibbs: has delmon already surpassed dmitri as the best young brother to play for the tigers?
10:52 AM Stoney971: Like the jerseys.not crazy about helmets
10:53 AM Stoney971: Delmon probably is ..wasn't Billy Ripken better than Cal??
10:53 AM grack: I not a fan of all the gold. They just look like USF now
10:53 AM JoeBeezy: funny Stoney!
10:54 AM vegetassj3420: Old jersey>new
10:54 AM Lions4life: The out take video of the Big Bang Theory song was extremely disturbing
10:54 AM Jibbs: valid point
10:55 AM SoulCaller: So if Best inst good at running between the Tackles then why did they run him between the tackles so much?
10:55 AM Stoney971: i am always extremely disturbing on video
10:55 AM JoeBeezy: I'll throw it out there....goodbye Palace in a few years, hello new downtown stadium for the Pistons (maybe Wed Wings).
10:55 AM vegetassj3420: Gotta try was just the first game...
10:55 AM Blue Hawaii: the jersey rocks... its still quite simple, too... some go over the top
10:56 AM Stoney971: i just think he is better outside...i also think ifd they were not so conservative in the 2nd half,the numbers would have been better
10:56 AM Stoney971: Gores would not have bought the team without the Palace..
10:56 AM SoulCaller: I believe that not having Leshoure really slimmed the Playbook down
10:56 AM Stoney971: Leshoures injury was damaging.
10:57 AM Jibbs: lions an early 9 point FAVORITE this weekend...if you were a betting man which way ya leaning
10:57 AM SoulCaller: Its hard to take the Lions being a favorite seriously. I mean they should have destroyed Tampa and yet they only won by 7. That is scary.
10:57 AM vegetassj3420: Lion's all the way... KC looked like garbage.
10:58 AM Stoney971: I would take the Lions..My reasoning is that they were ticked off they did not play well.The Eric Berry injury is very dammning to KC
10:58 AM JoeBeezy: You're right Stoney. He won't get rid of it. But I just think they won't stay out their by their lonesome as a sports team. I hope they make it downtown.
10:58 AM Stoney971: This chat has been extended to 11:15.
10:58 AM SoulCaller: All those mistakes in the first half, then playing to keep the lead instead of going for the win.
10:58 AM JoeBeezy: COol!\
10:58 AM JoeBeezy: Linos will smack KC up and down the field.
10:59 AM vegetassj3420: They also stopped the no huddle in the second half which was killing Tampa.
10:59 AM vegetassj3420: I dunno why they did that.
10:59 AM Jibbs changed their nickname to stubby.
11:00 AM vegetassj3420: It was they should've stuffed it down their throat's.
11:00 AM JoeBeezy: by the way...Tampa looked terrible.
11:00 AM Blue Hawaii: the only top available QB is hasselbeck... should i drop Cassel?
11:00 AM Blue Hawaii: fantasy
11:00 AM vegetassj3420: But Stafford looked good... Him and Calvin could be a top combo this year.
11:01 AM Blue Hawaii: i know i know,...another ridiculous fantasy question
11:01 AM SoulCaller: Stafford did look good. But I thought our 1 2 WRs looked even better.
11:01 AM JoeBeezy: I think or thought, Matt had more checmistry with Nate rather than Calvin.
11:01 AM Stoney971: not yet on releasing Cassel..They will be behind alot so they will have to pass.
11:02 AM SoulCaller: I think KC just got caught sleeping. Buffalo still sucks in my opinion
11:02 AM Stoney971: are you serious joe..Calvin was targeted 10 times to Burlesons 5
11:02 AM Blue Hawaii: thanks stone!
11:02 AM JoeBeezy: I know Stoney, that's why I said "thought".
11:03 AM vegetassj3420: I liked how they put Calvin in on the onside kick and at the end on D. His jump to get that onside kick was CRAZY!
11:03 AM JoeBeezy: Now, I think he has established good checmistry with both.
11:03 AM JoeBeezy: *chemistry...(i can spell. yikes)
11:04 AM vegetassj3420: Also thought it was funny to see SUH taking on 3... You think most team's will triple team him this year?
11:05 AM Stoney971: just saw all the new unis released today..they are all pretty good..Stanford's looks great as does Navy
11:05 AM SoulCaller: I really think UM needs to up their game and start messing with the Unis
11:06 AM JoeBeezy: I'm going to my first Michigan game on Nov. 26th!
11:06 AM SoulCaller: I dont think u touch the helmet
11:06 AM SoulCaller: but change it to the new style helmets that everyone is wearing
11:06 AM Stoney971: thats a nice game to go to Joe..How old are you
11:06 AM JoeBeezy: 45
11:06 AM Cadas: Stoney, how can I get a 97.1 remote to my new bar/poker room? Also will need the ticket chicks to come along.
11:06 AM JoeBeezy: I am not a ntaive of Michigan though.
11:06 AM SoulCaller: Im 28 and Ive never been to a Michigan game ever
11:06 AM SoulCaller: I havent been to a Lions game or a Red wings game as well
11:07 AM SoulCaller: I saw the Tigers in Comerica tho, back when Tickets were 2 for a dollar
11:07 AM JoeBeezy: Comerica is beautiful...I say we go back to calling it "The Copa"!
11:07 AM Stoney971: Cadas you have to call the promotions/sales dept. We very rarely do remotes, and they cost a pretty penny..Appearances are less money
11:07 AM vegetassj3420: I'm 32 and still haven't made it to a U of M game... Kinda thinking of going to the UofM vs OSU game..
11:08 AM JoeBeezy: That's the game I am going to. Went to Notre Dame/New Mexico last year.
11:08 AM Stoney971: for the money, go this week to the Eastern game..Tickets will be like 5 dollars on the street before kickoff
11:08 AM SoulCaller: I dunno if I will like the atmosphere and I really like having announcers and such. And i like to be comfortable while watching games. I did see the Pistons at the Palace last season
11:08 AM JoeBeezy: I mean, Utah.
11:08 AM Cadas: I looked all over your site couldnt find any info on that, do you have a number or email address for the contact person?
11:09 AM Cadas: Is that what you did at Dinos last week, an appearance?
11:09 AM CBSDetroitModerator: Cadas email our webmaster Evan @ evan.jankens@cbsradio.com for your information.
11:10 AM Stoney971: at Dinos i mingled..mc'd some prize drawings and that type of stuff..
11:10 AM Stoney971: Cadas ,you should definitely e mail Evan.He will take real good care of you, even if he is a Michael Jordan slappy
11:11 AM SoulCaller: So Stoney why is Michigan an Addias school anyway. Seems really odd. And I think the younger players are loving the Jersey changes and such. I think its also a recruiting tool.
11:11 AM Stoney971: I have a question for you guys....NFL or College Football.......NBA or College Hoops...
11:11 AM Cadas: hahah I will do that. We are opening about a mile north of Dinos. Sports bar & Poker.
11:11 AM vegetassj3420: Dang what's wrong with MJ... :(
11:11 AM Cadas: opps, I mean 1 mile south
11:12 AM vegetassj3420: NFL and College hoops
11:12 AM SoulCaller: College Football over the NFL anyday. Because you get to see those players FREELY play. Take Cam Newton for example, in the NFL there is an entire element of his game he cannot use!
11:12 AM Stoney971: Adidas paid them more probably
11:12 AM SoulCaller: They wont let Cam run around like hes done all his life in the NFL. They wont Talyor an offense to fit him. They will make him learn their offense.
11:12 AM SoulCaller: tailor*
11:13 AM vegetassj3420: Gotta protect their $$$.. Why let him run all over and get crushed on. The NFL is alot faster and stronger then college.
11:13 AM SoulCaller: In College FB you have TONS of offenses being run. You can see all kinds of skill sets being used. RBs as QBs, QBs as WRs.
11:14 AM SoulCaller: Cam could have easily been crushed in College. Hes played against tons of NFL players in the SEC
11:14 AM SoulCaller: Tebow as well.
11:14 AM Stoney971: that is the correct answer Soul, if you are gonna defend collge..Lots of different styles
11:14 AM vegetassj3420: But not NFL vet's
11:14 AM vegetassj3420: Those dude's are beast's
11:15 AM vegetassj3420: Rookies need a year or two to chill
11:15 AM SoulCaller: And then add the Pro Combat Unis to the mix. You get a little flavor going
11:15 AM SoulCaller: Folks being fined for trying to stand out in the NFL just sucks
11:15 AM Stoney971: Well Ladies and Gentlemen,Boys and Girls..This concludes our first Live Chat....I will be doing these every MONDAY at 10:30..Mike Valenti will be chatting with you today at 12:30..
11:15 AM SoulCaller: Tell Mike he better be ready!
11:15 AM vegetassj3420: See ya Stoney thanks for the chat! ;)
11:15 AM Stoney971: Thanks for participating and listening...I appreciate it alot
