Now all they need is a closer and a SS

Did I mention Kate Upton comes to the games?

oh, and didn't someone leak nudes of them both recently or something?


I'm down with the Tigers though. Feel like they've been "almost" there a couple of times.

the only negative is them not slapping the Cardinals around in '06.

Plus, Joe Nathan.

Voted Bucs but for the A.L. I'd go Royals.

This. Still haven't forgiven them for that.

Oakland, my brother picked up on them in the handlebar years.

[Edgy MD]

KC's alright, but I don't really trust a team without a secondary color.

With Oakland out of it, I'll pull for the Tigers. My boss, who has been very good to me, is a lifelong Tiger fan, and I have nothing else to go with at this point.

[Lefty Specialist]

You know, after last night, it's hard not to root for the Royals.

[G-Fafif]

Not the Cardinals.

Welcome aboard the bandwagon, MF!!! It's a good place to be! Is your boss a former Michigander?

No, but his father was a big fan of Hank Greenberg.

Tigers are guilty of making me annoyed at them for being a team so easy to beat that the Mets could easily have been 2006 World Champions.

A pox on them and their 90% downtown residential occupancy rate.

Tell me about it. I had tickets to Game One of the series!

Ninety percent! That's impressive. We've reversed 60 years of decline by facing our persistent problems, restoring vital services for residents and protecting the city's jewels such as the Detroit Art Institute and Belle Isle -- Michigan's newest state park.

Lady Liberty officially is on board. Join us!

That Tiger-love just ain't for us.
We crave a

kind of buzz.

Royals have actually won the World Series more recently! Tigers in 1984, Royals in 1985.

That was the epic I-70 series against the Cardinals. I was going to Mizzou at the time, and Columbia is right smack in the middle of the state. it was pretty intense.

You can call them Queen Bee.

[Lefty Specialist]

Plus, Kansas City has a 92% downtown residential occupancy rate.

And the entire country of South Korea rooting for them.

I already like this better than 'Eye of the Tiger'





Also, how many 61 year olds are looking as good as George Brett these days?
I bet he can still hit.

All in the pine tar.

Not looking good for the Pie Rats.

Looks like this good-time Buc revue just reached its closing numb-arrrr.

That Crawford slam-- I'm not sure when I last heard a crowd as quiet in an instant, outside of Game 7, '06.
