Tigers Getting Returns on Purchasing Anthony Fenech

By Jeff Moss DetroitSportsRag@Gmail.com July 6, 2019 Earlier this week, the CEO of Phantom Fireworks had a meeting with our Imbecile-in-Chief Donald Trump. During that meeting, the hero executive of rednecks everywhere, Bruce Zoldan, donated $750,000 of explosives for the dictator-in-training's July 4th spectacular.

Red Wings

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…

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.

The Off-The-Record Condolence Text From Stoney

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…
