We are BACK!

Wow, what a great week. Biking in WI and MN and passing through IN and IL...

Great weather, cool and sunny. Can't ask for better than sunny and 70-75 most days. Beautiful area along Lake Superior and up to International Falls. If you are in INT FALLS make sure to eat at the Chocolate Moose Restaurant on S 53. Food was great and the desserts were unbelievable.

The Tigers are still 6 1/2 games back headed to KC and they have not beaten the Royals all year! It must change now or they are done. They need to get hot and stay hot and get rid of Sheffield. The time has come. Anyway it is good to be home and back to work....well kind of.

Please pray for Leslie and Tyson Aschliman as Leslie continues to battle cancer.

WHY!!!!!!!!

Why pitch to Justin Morneau? Bottom of the 11th and 2 outs and you let Morneau hit a HR? That is crazy. Throw 4 balls and tell him to take his base. He was 4 for 4 on the day and you let him hit? Are you crazy. Jones blows another save, an unearned run ties the game. Runners on 1st and 2nd 1 out and the Tigers can't get the run in. Holy Smoke. 7 games back just before the All-Star game. The TIgers need to get on a roll here soon.

On another note, Tiger Stadium is coming down. Wow, I stopped by there on Wednesday when in Detroit on business and it was sad, real sad to see a huge hole in the Left Centerfield wall. I hope that they do save a small part of the stadium and the field for the future. I still think the city could have turned the place into a money maker if they would have wanted to. Concerts, minor league baseball, a mueseum....something to preserve that piece of history. DO you think they will tear down Wrigley Field? I hope not. Fenway Park?? Yankee Stadium...I hope so...I hate the Yankees!

Tigers, Tigers

Well the Tigers split over the weekend in Seattle. THey needed a sweep. They lost ground to the White Sox. They are now 7 games back a week before the break and at the .500 mark. Maggs on the DL has really hurt the Tigers. The bats have went silent. Tomorrow is another night with the no baseball. Hmmm....take the wife out for dinner and if she thinks the Tigers are playing I get brownie points. Please don't tell!

Well, Pettisville beat Archbold yesterday to win the Fulton County Acme Tournament! Awesome! Archbold is a lot like the Yankees! Everyone hates them! Everyone wants them to lose! The game was great as P-ville turned a triple play in the 6th Innings against the stinkin Bluestreaks!
