Overrated, Over-The-Hill GMs Aren’t The Answer

It was all an act. A charade. Kabuki Theater brought to you by Hot-n-Ready inside the bowels of Little Caesars Arena. And like usual, the Detroit sports media fell for it hook, line and sinker. On Friday April 19th, the Red Wings threw a sham of a press conference announcing…

2018 Detroit Worst Sports Media Personality Tournament PREVIEW

This website is pretty much on hiatus -- without a new update on the main page since August 19th -- but with only three weeks left until 2019, it was either now or never to run the 2018 Detroit Worst Sports Media Personality tournament. I have been dreading writing this…

A Disastrous Start to the Tigers Rebuild

There was no question that Tigers GM Al Avila made the right decision 13 months ago when he started tearing down the team and officially closed the franchise's 11-year window to win a World Series that never came. Justin Verlander, J.D. Martinez, Justin Upton and Justin Wilson were all shipped to contenders for a…

Why I’m Joining the DetroitSportsRag (Fuck @Jack)

As many of you probably know by now, both of my Twitter accounts have been permanently suspended. @JeffMossDSR (along with 15,000+ followers) was banished back in early February. And @DetSportsRag was deleted earlier this week. I had scratched back to around 3,500 followers when that account was terminated. (more…)

The Cratering Ratings of 97.1

It's never been a secret that the ratings success of WXYT-FM (97.1 "The Ticket") has always been propelled by the Detroit Tigers broadcast rights. Anyone who has followed the Detroit sports radio scene over the last 25 years can point to two factors as to why 97.1 became a juggernaut…

What Happened In That Hotel Room?

Before I get into the nuts and bolts of my position regarding this article, I want to state that I have no axe to grind against Lions head coach Matt Patricia. Anyone who has followed this website or my social media feeds is aware that I was desperate for the Lions…

DSR Sources: Henrik Zetterberg Headed to LTIR

Up until the last few days, sources had been informing the DetroitSportsRag that Red Wings' captain Henrik Zetterberg intended on playing one more season in Detroit before calling a career. I said as much in a Tweet on Sunday afternoon .... This was in response to General Manager Ken Holland's comments earlier Sunday regarding…

The Off-The-Record Condolence Text From Stoney

As we continue to commemorate the 15th anniversary of the DetroitSportsRag this week, I figured I would share with you one of my favorite stories that I’ve never fully told. (By the way, the official birthdate of the site is March 18, 2003. The day before the second Iraq war commenced to…

Chris “Officer Barbrady” McCucky Celebrates DSR’s 15 Year Anniversary

We started the DetroitSportsRag.com 15 years ago this week and the name of the website was picked for a specific reason. Rag. That was the first tip-off that this place was going to be a cesspool -- and it hasn’t disappointed. Rag. Rip. Shred. Destroy. That was always going to be…

Putin Is Fixing the KHL Championship for Pavel Datsyuk’s Team

Not that we needed any further confirmation that Russian dictator Vladimir Putin is a really bad guy, but we received it last night by the way of a bizarre thread on Twitter regarding the Kontinental Hockey League. If the former KGB operative's fixing of the 2016 Presidential Election wasn't bad enough (along with…
