After being drugged at a restaurant, Jay Mohr managed to make the ten minute drive home (in 3 hours time) and survived by playing Madden while on an acid trip. And he lived to tell the account of his experience -- Madden saves lives!

We decided to go to the store on the way home and get something to drink. My wife grabbed a few bottles of Coke Zero and I grabbed a two-liter bottle of Sunkist. I held it toward the heavens and exclaimed, "Look how ORANGE this is!" Mrs. Mohr said, "I don't like it, it's hurting my eyes!" When I yelled back, "I want to swim in it!" we froze, looked each other in the eye and realized we needed to get home as quickly as possible.

Not being able to tell the difference between taillights and red lights, I stopped for them both. Three hours into what was normally a 10-minute trip, we pulled into our driveway. My bride decided to crawl into bed and try and read a book.

I broke out the Madden '07.

Who will give up Alex Rodriguez's 800th career home run? Taking an in depth look into the future. Will it be Roger Clemens, one of his illegitimate children, or someone else?

Sporting News has named Detroit 2007's #1 sports city.

The Red Wings, Tigers and Pistons -- finished no worse than fourth-best in the workaday world of regular-season standings in their respective leagues.

In fact, even with the 3-13 Lions skewing the percentage, Detroit's major professional sports teams in their most recently completed full season won at a .588 clip. Yes, the Lions apparently were considered a professional sports team in the ranking process.

In case you missed this amazing catch by Curtis Granderson in Sunday's game against the Red Sox, here it is. A few of his teammates called it the greatest catch they have ever seen in person. Wily Mo Pena's deep flyball had already soared over the wall in left-center when Granderson leaped, and simply reached back and took it back. Incredible!

The culture of baseball is a mannered one, with definitive unwritten rules on decorum that have developed over the past 100 years. (Don 't show up a pitcher with excessive home-run celebrations, don't throw at a hitter's head, don't get tobacco juice on the batboy.) The rules for spectators have always been somewhat more nebulous. No longer.

These rules are great and should be followed when in attendance at any sporting event! It's unfortunate that so many people in this day and age have lost their sports etiquette, thus making the game less desirable by all. While the article is for baseball, these kinds of things apply at events of all sports.

Baseball's most fiery manager resides in Chi-Town, and he usually has no problem telling the media, fans, or players what he thinks. The overall message of these quotes is that Ozzie just doesn't give a [bleep] and that he is the wrong Venezuelan to [bleep] with.

Playoff wins, walk-off homers, and victory parades. Those are a few of Detroit's favorite things... It seems as though things never slow down in Michigan's largest city. Detroit is one of America's largest and proudest cities in many aspects, however on the sports stage, there is perhaps no place better.

The Tigers overcame cold bats to take two of three from the Royals after taking the rubber match today when Ivan Rodriguez hit a three-run homer to give the Tigers their first lead of the game in the top of the ninth inning.

With talk of the NFL Draft increasing, the Detroit Lions may have the largest amount of ground to make up. After another season of sub-par football played well below expectations and hopes set by people across Detroit, Matt Millen may finally see his job is in jeopardy. Which position will the Lions take with the #2 overall selection?

After Dmitri Young took aim at his former team, saying the Tigers didn't support him enough last season as he entered rehab and had substantial time away from the team, Jim Leyland responded, saying that DY did see support from the team, and that his lack of production disappointed the organization.

The NHL is in trouble -- they are paying NBC for air time, arenas are full of empty seats, and unbalanced scheduling keeps young stars out of the money markets like Detroit.

While the NHL All-Star Game may have been entertaining, the league still has many issues including unbalance scheduling and bad TV deals. It's tough to sell the game when Sidney Crosby may only come to your town once every three years or more.
