Tigers, Tigers Tigers, they are something else. What team will show up today or tonight? Who knows? Will they ever hit the ball consistently? All I know is that they are 3.5 games up on the White Sox and 6.5 up on the Twins. 35 games to go and if they can continue to win at home, they shoudl be in good shape. We will see, and time will tell.
Pitching has been very good the Dombroski went and got a bat in Aubry Huff. so far he has not hit a lick, but who knows. In a week the rosters expand and we will see what happens. Can they do it? Can they make the playoffs? Can they have a miracle happen? Can they get hot at the end of the season? Lately it has been the opposite of that the last few years.
Can wait to see how it all plays out............GO TIGERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What a Weekend
The Lord will not give us more than we can handle....but He did not say he would not take us to the edge...we just won't fall off. Things have been crazy since the last post. Mom says she went to Walmart to buy a gun to shoot her neighbor....she has been in the hospital and is now staying at our house....what a mess. she has lost it completely, or just has become so selfish, not quite sure where the truth is.....
Well, on the baseball side of life, the Tigers got 2 of 3 from the Twins...miracle of miracles...The stupid Twins got Carl Pavano...cy young winner if he only pitched against the Tigers. It is August 10 and the TIgers are in first place by 3 games. Big pennant race in the Central Division. Let's hope for the best against the Red Sox in Fenway.

Back from the 4th!!!!!!!!!
Man was it hard to get out of bed this morning. Even tho my Tigers are in first place after a horrible 3-6 road trip to Houston, St Louis and MN. Man I hate the Metro Dome. I am glad that will be gone after this year. Well, things are a bit slow and no one wants to work. Let's just cruise on the motorcycle and watch baseball. That is what summer is all about.
Right now things are going well. Jack and Jake just keep getting bigger and they are a blast. Actually Jake is spending the night with Grandpa and Grandma this Friday! Oh Boy....sounds like I might be sleeping in the basement! He is such a funny boy. Just got a video of him "driving the boat" that was good. Got a great Photos of Jack with his I love grandpa signs...awesome little guy.
Well a 6 game home stand and the TIgers have won the last 6 in a row at home! Keep it up Tigers! Royals and Indians in town this week

Tigers, Tigers, Tigers
What a game last night! 6-3 lead in the bottom of the 9th and Fernando goes Fernando and walks the first 3 batters! Lyon comes in gives up a double and the score is tied! Geez! Miggy comes up in the 10th and hits bomb and Tigers fans go to bed happy. With Verlander and Jackson going the next 2 nights, it would be great to take 4 of 5 from the White Sox! Take that Manager Guillen! But let's see what happens tonight and see if they can score some runs.
Interleague play starts and I say there is too much of that. I would rather play the Red Sox or Yankees again myself. May 6 games, not like 20! Pitchers hitting is good and I like the pureness of a no DH game...but come on not so many games outside the American League.
Less than 2 weeks till a vacation on the motorcycle. We are ready to go. Rose is painting the inside of the house and it is a mess. I just stay in the barn. I told her she needs to be done before we leave!

TIger Stadium is a Goner!
They can't do it can they? Oh yes they can if this artcle is any indication.

I so hoped they would save part of the stadium for a mueseum, save the field for kids to have a sort of "Field of Dreams" for the Tigers of old. but no, nothing is preserved, nothing cherished these days. Just tear away anything that once stood for something grand. Can they tear down Wrigley Field? How about tearing down the Green Monster at Fenway? Anything is possible I guess. At least the Yankees, and I really do hate them, did it right with their new stadium making it look like old Yankee Stadium. If the Tigers would have brought anything to the new stadium...over hang in RF or the closeness of the field and upper deck....something, but no we have a ferris wheel and merry-go-round! Wow, what a sad day it is.....Tiger Stadium....Ghosts of Tigers past, The Bird, Charlie Gerhringer, Hank Greenburg, Norm Cash...Rest in Peace....

I AM a Right Wing Extremist!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well folks, I am here to tell you I am sick and tired of our Gov't being a part of our lives. I am willing to die for this cause. It happened once, it can happen again. This nation needs a large group of us, the silent majority, to stand up and kick some butt!!!! These idiots think we can't see what they are doing? Cap and Trade, tax increases, water tax, mileage tax, etc etc etc.
Fiat owns Chrysler? What a joke. I want to see Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, Chucky Schumer, and Barney Frank carpool in a Fiat! This is insane. I will not buy a Chrysler or GM product as long as the Gov't owns a part of the company. Ford, Toyota, or Honda is what I will buy. Something "American" made....Not Gov't made. Wake up America, before it is too late. Can't you see what is happening? Losing freedoms and Libertys right and left. Next we will to be told when and what to eat. What to drive. How much we can drive. How much water we can use. You get the pitcure. It is out of control. This New President and Congress make Bill Clinton look like a Right Wing Extremist!. I need to start selling "I AM A RIGHT WING EXTREMIST!!!!" bumper stickers. No wait, that would probably put me in a higher tax bracket!!!!!!!!!!!!!
