For a few years, I attended some great baseball fantasy camps in Detroit played at Tiger Stadium and Comerica Park. In 2004 I attended a week long camp in Lakeland Florida. The camps are organized by the Tigers and feature former players to make it even more fun. The camps are a blast. My friends were always asking me to show them the videos and photos I shot so I made these video recaps. Part 1 features clips of the weekend camps at Tiger Stadium and Comerica Park plus the week long camp in Florida. It should give you a good idea of what your get to do at the camps. Part 2 is a “documentary” of a now famous homerum that I hit (or didn’t hit) at Tiger Stadium. I was able to interview several former Tiger alumni and have them recap the “Shot Heard Round’ Detroit”. Interviews include: Lance Parrish, Ernie Harwell, Kirk Gibson, Bill Freehan, George Kell, Jim Price, Dave Bergman, Steve Kemp, Mickey Lolich, John Wockenfuss, Dave Rozema, Frank Howard, Milt Wilcox, Dan Petry, Jon Warden, Tom Brookens, John Hiller, Jason Thompson, Rod Allen, Jim Northrup, Willie Horton, Darrel Evens, Frank Tanana and capped off with Tigers President and GM Dave Dombrowski offering me a contract. If you’re a fan, you’ll enjoy it. At least I hope you will.

We kind of refer to this as the Eddy Curry Rule.
In the NBA labor deal is what is called the “stretch provision,” which will help teams get rid of underperforming players on big deals. It can only be used on new contracts but here is how it works: If you want to get rid of a player you can buy him out then stretch out his contract on your books for double the length of the deal plus one year. For example, if a player is owed $20 million over two seasons and he gets waived, the team can stretch him out so his deal so on the official salary cap ledger he only costs them $4 million a season for five seasons.
But that is going to lead to some funky bidding, suggests Chris Sheridan at Sheridanhoops.com. He uses the upcoming free agency of Kris Humphries as an example.
Team A is willing to give Humphries a three-year contract starting at $8 million. With 4.5 percent annual raises, Hump would have an offer of $25.08 million sitting on the table.
But Team B really needs someone to do the dirty work under the boards. So they make Humphries the same offer but with a fourth year added on, fully guaranteed at $9.08 million. Now, Hump is looking at a $34.16 million deal. Which one do you think he’s going to take? Team B’s, of course.
Then, after three years, if Humphries is a $9 million burden on Team B’s 2014-15 cap, they can waive him using the stretch exception, and he will count against the cap for only $3 million per season over the next three seasons.
Teams are going to figure out how to game the system, and this is one way it will happen. And it is easier for larger market teams to have a few of those bought out, stretched out deals (and replace them with new, productive players) than it will be for smaller market teams that can’t go into the luxury tax realm as easily.
With things like the stretch provision and shorter contracts, you will have ways GMs can get out of bad decisions. The thing is, it leaves them with more decisions to make — there will be more roster turnover every season and more decisions to be made. For bad GMs that means more chances to screw up, for the best more chances to shine. As it was before, good drafting and management will rule the day.
~READ DESCRIPTION~ WATCH IN HD! Goal horn for the Detroit Red Wings during the late 1980′s till about the early 1990′s. The goal horn isn’t the actual one used by the Red Wings Organization during that era but was made close to make it sound a lot similar although I wasn’t sure what the goal song was, so I just sticked with Gary Glitter – Rock ‘N Roll Part 2 since most teams used the song during that era.
