All right, how the hell is everybody on a snowy Tuesday? I feel like every day is snow now. Do you see the forecast? It will be, yes. That's like every day you're just going to get a dusting. Just enough to anger you. Well, tonight, I guess it's going to be a little bit more, but it is wintertime. It's Michigan. Let's go! It's winter meetings time. So I think we've been very fair. Some of you may disagree with that. I don't really care, though. But I think we've been incredibly fair to the Tigers. And I have said to you for a while now, anytime you call up, you want to call Chris Illich cheap, what have I said?

and we got some quotes for you and I've got to tell you it's worth a watch.

I have nothing to gain by telling you to watch MLB Network.

But I mean, Harris looks like he is going to sweat through his shirt, getting grilled about Scoobel.

And I want to play some quotes to you.

Because it's delicious irony that as Scott Harris speaks, today, the next day, the tigers are out here.

Hey, here's your ticket plans.

Have it your way.

And I think you as a consumer, you have decisions you need to make.

I'm not going to tell you what to do.

It's not my place.

I can tell you what I would do.

But you want to let's play this audio. And then we're going to have a conversation. Now,
