10. My god, they have been in the bottom of the 5th inning for at least
15 minutes, and there's only ONE out! :wow:

11. You just want the Tigers to win 'cause of the Mariners!
I live in Seattle - I know your ways!

Actually, the Mariners and Angels are so close right now, if either team sweeps the other it will be good for the Tiges, so it may as well be the Mariners.

13. Well, not completely, but yeah, that's part of it.
I am a Tigers fan too (unless they're playing the Mariners).

As for the Angels and Mariners, I'm half dreading the series! :scared:

Even though I live here now, I can never switch teams. I loved the Tigers even through the bad times!

That's kind of sad.

18. 39 on December 8.
He's 6 months younger than me (roughly).

Smart, too. Almost valedictorian of his HS and a graduate of Stanford (economics).

19. That is getting a bit old for a pitcher. Not all of them of course,
but for a pitcher like Mussina, I think it probably is. Someone like Jamie Moyer (boohoo, but I still miss him) who throws softer can usually go a bit longer than someone who is more of a power pitcher.

20. Mussina seems the type to just walk away when he feels he's done.
He's kind of a different cat.

But Moyer and Wells seems to pitch forever. If you're left handed, have a pulse and can locate the strike zone with a map you can pitch forever.

31. They lost the ALCS to Boston. When they were ahead 3-0.
And they lost 22-0 a couple of years ago.


The Curse of Bin Laden is haunting the Yankees, I know it!

Oddly enough, I'm wearing my Tigers t-shirt today. Dave mailed it to me when I gave him one I've had for years ...

Jeter's my man too though ... we grew up in the same town.

66. Mrs. Grumpy is a big-time Tigers fan!
Even though she's from Wisconsin.

I called my friend who's a Mariners' fan and offered him (at the time 5, later upped to 7) runs in exchange for a sweep of the Angels, but he couldn't deliver, sadly.

67. Mariners were pathetic last night.
It's like they were saying, "Hey Angels. Here we are. Please feel free to kick the crap out of us." So, the Angels did just that. x(

68. Well, my friend said that they had a great pitcher
He said that he figured the Ms would have trouble last night, then win the next two. Either team losing is good for my Tigers. Gawd, I love that team. I love them just for their own sake, but this particular batch of guys are also really loveable!

69. Lackey was pitching for the Angels last night, and he is an awesome
pitcher. Ours, not so awesome.

But tonight and tomorrow night, we have our two best pitchers, so yeah, it'll be different.
