Thousands turned out in droves to see former President Donald Trump kick off his 2024 campaign in Waco, Texas on Saturday but some of his supporters did not stay very long. The Waco Tribune's Mike Copeland spoke with a number of attendees, many of whom had traveled from other parts of Texas or had arrived at Waco Regional Airport, the site of the rally, very early in the morning.

When the Detroit Tigers selected Justin Verlander in the 1st Round of the 2004 MLB Draft, the hope was that he would eventually develop into a No. 1 starter. Well, as we know, Verlander did much more than that, as he not only became one of the best pitchers in baseball, but he won an MVP award, which is very difficult for a pitcher to accomplish. Unfortunately, though he came close, Verlander was never able to lead the Tigers to a World Series title, and he was eventually traded to the Houston Astros. During a recent conversation with the Detroit News, he talked about being traded, and how he wishes that it had worked out for the Tigers, as it did the Astros.

Three Detroit Lions veterans took substantial pay cuts this offseason, and many are commending them for doing the team a solid for their “selfless acts”. But did the players really take pay cuts to help out the team, or was it for themselves? When Halapoulivaati Vaitai, Charles Harris, and Romeo Okwara agreed to take pay cuts this offseason, fans and analysts alike were quick to commend them for their selflessness. However, as with any decision, there are multiple factors to consider, including the motives of the players themselves. Of the three players mentioned above, only Okwara could have had a chance to get more money if he left in free agency.

Was what Vaitai and Harris did for Detroit Lions really ‘selfless’?

Bottom Line: It could be a fun season in the Motor City!. The 2022 season is a wrap, and the Detroit Lions finished with an overall record of 9-8. Fast forward to the present, and the Lions have been focused on adding players to their roster via free agency. Well, the first wave of free agency is pretty much in the books, and to say the Lions upgraded their biggest weakness (the secondary), would be a huge understatement. That being said, if the Lions truly want to contend for a Super Bowl, there is still plenty of work to be done. Let's take a look at how I think the 2023 Detroit Lions will win.

Riley Greene is a fearless center fielder for the Detroit Tigers, who blends MVP-caliber skills, such as an elite hitting and power profile, with leadership qualities. In his rookie season, he fractured his foot in spring training, which kept him off the Opening Day roster, but his arrival sparked the Tigers' struggling offense for a time, and he endured a month-long slump before rebounding. When all was said and done, he played 93 games for the Tigers, hitting .253 with five home runs, 36 walks, and 120 strikeouts. Despite his successful debut, Greene believes there is room for improvement and wants to be great for his team to win.

The upcoming Madden NFL Football video game will feature an accurate rendering of Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell for the first time. This is a change from the past two years, where the depiction of Campbell in the game was not remotely accurate. The reason for this delay is that the scans for the game take place during the annual owners' meetings, which Campbell was unable to attend in his first year due to the pandemic, and in the second year due to a personal issue. This year’s owners' meetings provided the first opportunity for EA Sports to do a full scan of Campbell for the video game.

Earlier today, we passed along the news that the Detroit Tigers have sent RP Will Vest and catcher Donny Sands to Triple-A Toledo, while INF Andy Ibañez was reassigned to the Tigers' minor-league camp. According to the Detroit Free Press, Tigers manager A.J. Hinch also informed catchers Andrew Knapp and Michael Papierski that they were no longer in the running for the Opening Day roster, leaving Eric Haase and Jake Rogers as the final two catchers for the team.

The first wave of the free-agency period is pretty much in the books, and many have shifted their focus back to the 2023 NFL Draft. As you have probably heard by now, the Detroit Lions currently hold the No. 6 and No. 18 overall picks in the first round, and five total selections within the Top 81 picks in the draft. Despite bolstering their secondary via free agency, it would not be surprising at all to see the Lions select a cornerback with one of their early picks. According to ESPN, there are three cornerbacks in the upcoming NFL Draft who would fit perfectly with the Lions. Those players are Devon Witherspoon, Emmanuel Forbes, and Cam Smith.
