can’t agree with Mike more here - spot on. Chris Illitch should be vilified for being a cheap ass failure of an owner.

Trust fund baby doesn’t want to spend any money. So sell the team then. Bye Chris and your awful pizza and $16 beers

It's hilarious how some people think Chris Ilitch is a decent human.

That silver spoon mf'er couldn't care less about the teams success, except for the revenue the team generates for him. I miss Mr. I, the complete opposite of his son when it comes to caring about his sports teams

Everyday I pray some Michigan billionaire will decide to buy either the Wings or the Tigers, Illitch doesn’t want to spend money on either to make them contenders, the best case scenario is to take one of those teams and make it work

I was born and raised in Michigan. Moved to Atlanta in 2017 when I was 24. If the Braves were ever 19-18, there'd be riots in the streets. They're a baseball town.

This is all on the GM & owner, for not going after JD or Chap.

All organizations start at the top. Until that changes, nothing will. Lions are exhibit A. Sheila wants to win. Mike Illitch wanted to win too which is why the Wings and Tigers had success under his watch. Chris is a bad owner and winning isn’t his priority.

St. Louis cardinal fans are equivalent to Detroit red wing fans they are very very passionate, that's what im dying for the tigers to be at least watchable

The Tigers are the worst organization in Detroit, they have never been held accountable. They wasted Verlander and Cabrara's prime.

@@adriankendrick4281 No they didn't Valenti is backtracking because he knows he went to far. Costa rightly called him out for crapping on Detroit baseball fans. If the Ego in the Afternoon can't handle it, maybe he should apply to be Boomer's sidekick on the FAN in NY.

We don’t have nice teams in Detroit because of fans like you. They make money being mediocre because no one does anything about it. Other cities media and fans will hold owners and managers accountable while we sit on our thumbs wondering why our teams suck. Valenti is the only media member in Detroit who will call it what it is.
