The Pain is Gone

The end of the baseball season is here for the Tigers. It ended as it began, with a horrible loss. The Tigers are horrible...and going down....who is too blame?? Everyone in my mind. Wow, what a letdown. From the highs of Spring Training to going home and out of it by Sept. 1. Where do you start to fix it?? Have no ideas there. SS is a problem and Renteria's option will not be picked up....Inge back to 3rd?? What is up with all of this?? Guillen to LF??

Geez, I am ready to go on vacation! Time to fly, time to run......time to find something new to do with my time...no baseball. See you in March Lakeland FL, Sonny's Real Pit BBQ!

I am guessing that hotel rooms will be a lot cheaper!!!!

How Far Have They Fallen

Rose and I went to the game last night at the COMA.....the Tigers were in a coma. It was terrible! They did not care, they walked too many, and could not hit Meche. The Tigers now stand only 1 game out of last place. A team picked to win the World Series, could finish in last place! 2 more against the Royals and 4 against Tampa Bay. If you want to go to any games $.49 will get you tickets to any of the reamining games on Stub Hub! Holy Crap! Well we have tickets for one more game and I can't seem to give them away! Terrible, simply, terrible!

Well, it is time to farm and that sounds like more fun than watching the Tigers right now, even if I can't bare the thought of not seeing the games till spring! Man, I love baseball! Maybe some fall High SChool games will be better to watch! MY nephews are playing, I guess I will check them out this weekend!

Better luck next year....

Limping to the End

Limping to end of the season for the Tigers. One more game to go see...tonight versus the last place Royals. The Tigers are only 2 games ahead and a sweep by the Royals would and could give them a last place finish....the biggest disaster of a season ever in my mind. in the 119 loss season of 2003, you knew they would not be any good anyway.....this year, wow what a mess, they were terrible, they could not beat anyone and the pitching was horrible....7 more games...at home, before a few thousand fans per game...I think I will go just to boo them! I can't even give the tickets away at this point...

Well, at least it was a nice weekend for riding the motorcycle. Beautiful last weekend of summer just passed and a beautiful start to fall. get the farming done and go on vacation, maybe...depends on the forcast....

there is always next year for the Detroit Tigers.....oh yeah the Lions start the season 0-3....yee haa

Holy Crap Marie

Can you believe it. THe TIgers blow a lead again in the 9th. Feranando to the rescue....my spelling is bad....because I am mad!!!!!

4-2 lead in the 9th and Fernanado does it again. Listen to WMTR in the morning and I am sure Max will play Fernanado by Abba! HE must not close in 2009!

I still have tickets to 2 games next week! Any takers? Free TIckets, free tickets!!!!

waiting on Lakeland 2009! What week in March will we go??????

Another game, Another blown lead

The dates change, but the results do not. Kyle Farnsworth again gives up a lead late in the game. Just release the guy now and tell him to go home. What a joke. And Pudge can't get a hit for the Yankees.....rotten trade for both teams. I think both team wish they would have kept the player they traded. The Tigers were kind of in contention when the trade went through and so were the Yankees....but alas they are both headed home in a couple of weeks.

Last night Dontrelle pitched and did fairly well and it will be interesting to see what happens in his next start. He walked too many, but came through when he had too and gave up the big 3 run HR, but little else. The bats scored enough runs again, but another lead blown in the 8th inning. The other night I have heard how many games they have blown after the 7th inning and if they would have won 1/2 of them, they would be in first place or really close to the lead and would be in contention, not 13 games back and 9 games under .500.

Do I want to watch the game tonight?? Don't know and not sure I care, but it is still baseball and I love baseball!!!!!

Oh What a Weekend!

What a weekend. Tigers are rained out Fri and Sat. Lose a DH on Sunday. Big comeback Sunday night from a 7-0 White Sox lead only to have The Launching Pad(Farnsworth) give up a Grand Salami in the bottom of the 8th. Story of the entire season. Geez, can't anyone get someone out!

Then the Buckeye meltdown against USC and the Lions, what can I say about the Lions except, from the words of Denny Green...The Lion are who we thought they were....terrible.

at least we got some much needed rain over the weekend and we made it to the final night at the Ridgeway Dairy Freeze! Gotta have some!

Tonight starts a 3 game series in Texas. Willis on the mound....could be a long night as ususal...
