Hear the Roar!

It's time for me to post about the Detroit Tigers! In spite of injuries to key players all year, they now have the best record in baseball. The three-game sweep of Minnesota was impressive. All three games won by a single run. All three in the Metrodome, which has been Dead Man's Gulch to the Tigers for years. With 32 wins on the road, we're not that anxious for them to return home!

Of course, it's a long season and we're nowhere near the end of it. Those pesky Cleveland Indians are hanging right in there, a mere two games behind. If Cleveland were in any of four other divisions, they'd be in first place. The tight pennant race between these two Lake Erie rivals has made for a riveting season.

So, thank you Tigers for all the heart and determination you shown us so far this year. Here's wishing and hoping for another shot at the fall classic!

It is good to be a Tigers fan!

What's great is that they are primed to be good for several years. Ilitch has built a solid organization, just as he did with the Red Wings.

Is there any chance he could buy the Lions?
