0:00.0 | BUS is the nothing personal word of the day. |
0:23.4 | It's Thursday, August 11, 2022. |
0:26.7 | I don't mean genie bus. I mean a school bus, a greyhound bus. Throwing someone under |
0:33.2 | that bus is a great expression. Don't throw him under the bus. Throwing under the bus |
0:38.0 | is when you say something about somebody at your workplace or at your school or in your |
0:41.9 | house. When you know you've done something and you blame it on someone else or you haven't |
0:48.2 | done something, you know someone else has done something. No one else really needs to know |

1:46.8 | been the GM of the Tigers since 2015. He was brought in by Christopher Ilech's father, |
1:52.0 | Mike Ilech, the little Caesar's guy who wanted nothing but to win a World Series. The GM |
2:00.4 | before him was Dave Dombrovsky and one thing you should know is that Dave Dombrovsky is |
2:05.6 | really good at spending other people's money and Mike Ilech gave Dave Dombrovsky plenty |
2:12.2 | of money to spend in an effort to try to get a World Series. The Tigers made it to World |
2:16.2 | Series. I believe in 06, not much since then. And wouldn't you know today on August 11th |
