Where is Stinkin' Al Gore?
This weather stinks...period...end of discussion. Isn't October supposed to be a month in the low 60's. Harvest gets going....great outdoor weather. Walks in the woods. Football and above all else the MLB playoffs? I don't get it? Al Gore, I understand why you don't call it global warming anymore...but climate change. I think we are headed to an Ice Age! Crap, warm up please! Winter clothes in October? Rain, Rain and more RAIN!!!!!!!!!!!! Excuse me, but winter will be here soon enough. I need to go to FL and get some rays! Las Vegas anyone....So Cal? But not NWO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well, it is the Yankees v Angels and Phils v Dodgers....I say Angels and Dodgers in the World Series. I have called it. It all begins tonight. Hey Twins....hope you like outdoor baseball next year....I am guessing they will finish 4th in the Central next year!
Praying for Indian Summer......

That's the Season
Let the Countdown to Lakeland begin.......
The 12 inning classic last night was what this whole season was about...shoulda, coulda, woulda. So close, but yet so far. Proves opening day is an important as the last game of the season. Proves that you must always be ready to play. Proves that you can take nothing for granted...even 3 up with 4 to play. Stupid Tigers! Is it Leylands fault...yes. Is it Miggy's fault...heck yes! Is it Maggs Fault...yes...Grandy's fault...yes...it was everyone's fault...expecially Lloyd McClendon. He must go. Replace him like Chuck Hernandez. I am not so sure I would not replace Jim Leyland is the right guy was available. Not sure who that would be...but.....
Did I waste my whole summer watching this team...maybe....but it was exciting, just turned out horribly. when the Tigers swept the Ray...I thought they were golden....but no they were not. Twins go 17-4 down the stretch and the Tigers choked...out and out choked....what can I say....
see ya in Lakeland......

Choke Job!
Stupid Tigers end the season today and they may as well put us Tiger fans out of our misery! THEY STINK! 3 up with 4 to play and now they are tied with the Twins. If they both win they go to the Dome for a game! May as well not go! The Tigers always lose there! Can the Royals win today?? Probably Not! Can the Tigers win today...only if Verlander throws a shutout and and the Tigers somehow score a run....horrible, just horrible!
By 5 this afternoon we will know what is next.....please don't go back to the Dome...even if you don't get in....Do I really want the Tigers to win????

Here we GO!
Well, today starts a 4 games series with the Twins at Comerica Park. Really, the playoffs begin tonight. The Tigers are up 2 with 7 to play. Can they hang on? Can they win 3 of 4 from the Twins and end this? Can they get to the real playoffs? Will the Twins Jinx come into play? Will being on the cover of SI jinx the Tigers?? All these questions and more will be answered starting tonight at 7:05. Porcello and Verlander start it off. Win 2 and maybe just maybe the Twins will roll over. While I would rather be 2 games up than 2 games back, it is the Twins...Mauer, Cuddyear....and stinkin Punto....yeah stinkin Punto...
GO TIGERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
GO TIGERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Breathing Easier
Well, the Tigers are trying to shorten my life. What a week of baseball for the Tigs. Yesterday was a huge win for the Tigers as Nate Robertson came through. It has been a tough season for Nate and I am sure it has tried his faith, but the elbow surgery seems to have helped and the slider is back and Nate pitched really well yesterday. About 100 pitches and what a game it was. Who would have thought Nate would get to win such a big game.
Question? What was Don Kelly doing in the game Saturday night? He had not played at the Dome and as tough as it is to see the ball there, why not play someone out there for "defensive purposes" that has played out there? That loss is squarely on Leyland's shoulders in my mind. JV pitched his guts out again and comes up empty. I am guessing he feels a little snake bit.
Need to win 2 of 3 in these next 2 series on the road at Cleveland and Chicago. Then the last 6 at home. Can they win it? the next 2 weeks will tell the story......Go Tigers!!!
