Actually, the Tigers are pretty good these days!! GREAT time to get some tix and spend a day at the stadium. In fact, one of my fondest memories is of a certain day/night in Detroit and a certain event at...the DTE!!! HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh, don't get me wrong. I stand by MY post 100% (save for that bad Don Henley song and worst running movie ever made). I actually have a picture of old Tiger Stadium in my office. Got the new one too. Bought at a market right in the streets of Greektown. Need I call back that pic of me and my bro with one of my FIRST JP cross pictures during the World Series? Skipped school every opening day. Sadly, to see the Tigs lose most often than not. Sad to say the same for the Cubbies.
Hell, Harry Carey made life a very good thing in the 7th irrespective of the outcome.
Haven't forgotten the pic of me waiting on the platform for the L, Ron. Just can't find it. HAAAAA!!!

Ron, glad I could find a way to take you with me to "that place". Cubs, Dodgers, Toledo Mudhens...makes no diffference to me. Its all about the time of year and all those things which make it what it is to us. Things that remind of us simpler days. Of family vacations in the mountains or at the beach or wherever. Camping, swimming, hiking. Sitting in that aforementioned chair after all the "eatin" is done and just looking into the night sky... Nothing like a warm, summer evening by the pool.

And so I shall!!! The Princess has just awoke from her slumber and the coffee is ready. After a cup or two, it will be time from a lttle 'classic' breakfast...some bacon and eggs perhaps? Then we will prepare for today's "Game of the Week"..the Dodgers renew their great rivalry with the San Francisco Giants on Fox today!!! Wonderful!!!!! Have a GREAT day!

Hi Guido!!
I think of spring training and opening day and that song comes to mind every year!! Is there a pre-game show or telecast on opening day that doesn't open with that song?? I simply love it!!
I was hoping to catch a game this past week but they traveled to Toronto on the day I had the time. This is twice now I've missed out on visiting that beautiful new staium they play in now. I like it that it's recessed below street level a good bit so you can catch a glimpse from the strret on the right side of the stadium.
Ah, yes....I, too, fondly remember sitting in OLD Tiger Stadium watching ... them lose...

Morning folks!!
Freeze, can you paint a picture or what??!! As a fellow lover of America's past time and this time of the year in general, you 'nailed it' with your words. Of course I'm a Cubs fan, but my love runs soooooo deep. No more from me, just gonna slip back into that place your words took me to a moment ago...thank you!!

Good Morning, all! An absolutely memorable Saturday morning here in Las Vegas. Sun is up early, not a cloud in the sky and the temps should be well over 80 degrees today!! It appears that it will be a great day to do something I truly enjoy; watch Dodger baseball!!! Ahhhhhh....the summer days are closing in and life takes its slow, lazy turn towards bliss...... It is to weep with joy.
SO good to see Steve (Demon) back with us! One of the true pioneers of this site and a respected, honorable member. I recall, with great fondness, days gone by with him, MM, DAS and so many others that have since found their way out into the world. Change is the one true constant, no? Such days of lunacy. Light hearted fun and a closeness that seems to evade us all too often these days.
Forgive me if I wax nostalgic but those of you that know me well know that the warmth of summer and the long, lazy days thereof are my time. This is the time of year that I love most. The blazing hot sun, the scantily clad ladies, the almost mathmatical beat of the ocean waves, the smell of charcoals as the grill awaits its first sizzle of a nice, juicy steak, the timeless dance of the "Boys of Summer" as they play the game I love so dearly and the moments at night when the warmth of the day seems to linger endlessly on your skin and the stars shine just a tiny bit brighter in the summer skies. The ice cold drinks that soothe your parched throat after a long day in the sun. The music (Priest, of course) playing for hours as your sit deep in your chair by the slowly fading coals of another successful barbeque.... If there is a "god", this is what he meant for all of us. Enjoy your day, my friends. Enjoy it and remember it for these truly are our best days.

HAAA!!! Good thing Don Henley is an ass and had his song pulled.
Here would be the tribute to your boys....Imagine the song. Personally, I prefer a local Detroit radio version named after the Strohs' brewery on Gratiot road was burned down. "Out on the road today I saw a Moosehead sticker on a Cadillac, a little voice inside my head said 'buy as six pack go and get a six pack."

It was very nice. But it also shows what a private person Glenn is and I respect him for that. I think I enjoyed the Hobbies page the most. He really shows a passion for fishing. Something I would never have a passion for. I like the fact that even the deep sea fish he catches, he releases. Now, that is a person who loves it just for the sport.
