New blog...

I'm ready for a new blog. No restrictions, but I'll keep it to mostly Lions/Tigers issues. The Tigers just signed Dontrelle Willis to a three year deal for 29 million. Great contract that gives the Tigers flexibility. Dontrelle had a bad year last year, and his K/BB numbers prior to that were less than ideal, but he still has upside at only 25. I'm also excited that he'll make an impact in the community, as seen yesterday when he came to Detroit to sign his deal. Terry Foster had a great story about the kind of impact D-Train can have in this city, and that is important. On the Lions side, their season is over, except for two meaningless games against the Chiefs and Packers. They have plenty of work to do. Draft preparation is well under way, but I'll try and get a good look at as many Bowl games as possible. Also, they are well under the cap next year, and can shave much more money than is already showing when Foster/Bell void out of their deals.
