Yowza! What a win! Go Tigers!

Great game by Abbott last night. Unfortunately the injuries keep coming. Fraley hit on the hand by a pitch and had to leave the game. Remember before the season when we were wondering where Bell was going to find at bats for all these guys? Now we are watching Mike Ford play every night. That great depth evaporated in a flash.

Good job CW.

Agree. I look for a better game 2 for the Celtics.

Who will get more preferential treatment: Scheffler or the police officer?

I've been a Boston fan since Nate Archibald played there so we'll be on opposite sides of that one.

The conspiracy theory crowd is going to need to work overtime on this playoff season. New York is out. No NY; No LA; No Philly; No Chicago. Indianapolis and Minneapolis are in? What are the NBA and their refs up to?

Relying on young players at the heart of your team is a roll of the dice. Had Elly at the plate two different times late in the game with runners at 2nd and 3rd and he struck out. Steer also up in one of those situations and couldn't get the key hit needed, although he worked a walk after fouling off 3 or 4 pitches that he should have crushed. He actually did crush one but pulled it foul.

It's a bit of a joke, and a comment on how there is a conspiracy theory for everything. I believe there was a post talking about some conspiracy theory that started me down this path.

Sure. He probably didn't really have a cardiac incident either. "They" faked it all.

At intake, they do a record review don't they? Clean record, no serious injuries involved, over crowded jails, no risk of not showing up for court ... I think any of us get out on OR or bond. And I will throw this back at the celebrity issue. On the other side there is the police officer involved issue. I think the only reason any of us would not get out is because it is a police officer that was involved. And the courts will protect the police - and rightfully so in almost every case.

Is that because he was a detective and just helping out due to need? Louisville police have to be on a strict body cam usage program with all they have gone through over the past couple years.

I don't buy that either. We may not have been out of jail in 1 hour, but none of us would have spent a night in jail.

It is a gray world, not a black and white one. There are always nuances to the story.

I have at least 10 questions to ask to get more facts about how this happened. I am not jumping straight to the police side and co-signing. Almost the opposite. It will take a lot more to convince me Scheffler is guilty of these charges.
