The first time the Crawford brothers saw an NBA player in person was during a camp in Detroit. It was former Pistons forward Grant Hill. The boys were mesmerized. They knew they wanted to follow in his footsteps.
Another oddly ineffective outing for the Tigers' ace Tuesday night that left many at Comerica Park shaking their head.
The Tigers are pretty darn good at collecting gaudy individual feats, and now here comes Scherzer, hanging 10s all over the place. On a team of pitching stars, it's his turn to star.
And then there were three. That's the number of favorites still standing in the race for the nation's No. 1 defensive end, Woodbridge, Va., star Da'Shawn Hand. One week removed from paring his list down to Michigan, Alabama and Florida, and the reverberations are still being felt.
Who the (bleep) do Tigers fans want manager Jim Leyland to use as his closer? Leyland's profanity-laced speech about that topic last week may have been entertaining for some and frustrating for others.
The chase finally was on Sunday at Michigan International Speedway, with Sprint Cup series leader Johnson running down Biffle's No. 16 Ford over the final 20 laps of the Quicken Loans 400.

Some may have snickered when Reggie Bush said there was no reason for the Lions not to have the most productive offense in the league, but he was dead-on. The weaponry is there and, just as importantly, so is the diversity of attack.
Here is what I know about Michigan International Speedway: It is the fastest race on the Sprint Cup circuit and it is the most intimidating one I've seen. It is even intimidating to drive the family car off the track on those banked curves.
The offensive tackle position continues to be a target for Michigan State in the 2014 class, and one of the players the Spartans have their sights set on is Fairfield (Ohio) High's Danny Burns, a mountain of a prospect at 6-7 and 320 pounds.
The guy that desperately needs good fortune now is Dumars. In the coming weeks, he'll take another shot in the draft, then another shot at the free-agent and trade markets. And if there isn't a significant boost, Dumars likely will be gone.
What do they really have in Knight, their 2011 lottery pick, and what do they do with Rodney Stuckey, who is entering the partially-guaranteed final year of his second NBA contract in Detroit?
Bush, 28, was the No. 1 free-agent target for the Lions, and it's important to recognize why. It's not that Calvin Johnson and Matthew Stafford required more help than the defense. It's that in Motown terms, if you spend big money on a fast car, you don't run it with a clogged fuel pump.
Last autumn's bullpen nightmare has revisited the Tigers, who are no doubt wondering if the Jose Valverde experiment is finally, and destructively, history.
