And so with the loss this afternoon...

looks like the sucker, er, fan who voted for the Tigers clinching Thursday afternoon is eliminated. I fear it won't be long until the Tigers are eliminated too.

  1. I think the Commish just called me a sucker. Fear not, oh wise one, I have ammended my vote and now say Sunday. And to make sure it happens, I will be there in person. I will be available to throw out the first pitch, sing the National Anthem, sell hot dogs, or light one of Leylands ciggies. Tough loss this afternoon.
    I am nervous, but we will get there.

  3. Never fear, Chuck. It may take a small miracle (with Bonine and Robertson scheduled to pitch), but the Tigers CAN clinch on Thursday. They just have to take the next two games from the Twins. Don't think it'll happen, but it can.

  4. I feel like a kid again. During the game last night, my heart was pumping like a volcano. When Granderson misjudged the flyball I was pushing him to get there. When the game ended I was cheering wildly. I decided to take off tomorrow afternoon and buy 2 tickets to go to the game - so I hope my original prediction is correct. I promise not to run on the field like I did in '68 -- too old and too fat, but just as excited.
    Hope Bonine can hold them in check tonight.

  6. Have fun Chuck! Wish I was going with you!! What a great story it would be if long-forgotten and castoff Nate Roberston comes through with the clinching victory.
