I'm pretty sure that slogan was started by the Red Sox.

Shots fired at Bobby.
BUT HE DOESNT SPEAK ENGLISH ACCORDING TO THE IDIOT MCCARVER!
I love Bobby V. I called it since day one.

The worst part about this sour ending to the Tigers season is that Scherzer will get Cy, Miggy might get MVP. So that will completely wipe the minds of fans and they'll cheering Leyland once more.
It's all Pedroia's fault, I know. There, there buddy.

He's going to get to the bottom of this. He said so.

that article was posted two days ago? what's your point?
I really don't think Blue Jays will be any better next season.
Sox gambled during the pre-season. Signed an injured free agent who turned out to be good (Napoli), an aged player who many fans and reporters said he's done (Victorino) + The way they dealt with the sudden bullpen injuries and a terrible post-season pitcher who turned out to be an amazing closer! (Koji) It wasn't easy at all. No one had high expectations for Gomes and Drew.

I'm loading up ACIII and stabbing every single citizen in Boston now.
I wasn't being sarcastic or anything, just pointing out how improbable this red sox turn around was.
Don't do this to yourself!

cashman I think you need a new avatar now with darvish in the background
The Rangers might suck, but at least Darvish doesn't!

Won't kill em. They're Boston strong.
ACIII is one of the worst games I've ever played. Good luck, friend.

Yeah, the 2004 Cardinals were the best team I've seen. At least offensively. It was a shock to see them just get swept so soundly.
This time the starting pitching is better though...

I went to one Red Sex game this year. "This is our fucking city". That was the one.
Anyways I'm not worthy of this OT other than I was born 10 minutes out of Boston 40+ years ago.

I know you're in pain, but this will not help.
Sure you are. Someone will suggest tht you are a lifelong and then everyone will move on.

I think you'd be okay with it if you lived here or had deep connections to the city. It was real dark in April. The city really turned to the Sox as a distraction.
You want to talk about darkness, come to Detroit. We needed a distraction more than you did.

I could tell you exactly where I was when My dad let me stay up late for Yaz's 3,000th hit, where I was when Hendu hit the home run, how my first curse words in front of my mom were when the ball went through Buckners legs, how I refused to go into the city up 3-0 to the Cardinals in 2004 because 30+ years of failure in my life told me to stay home and expect the worst..
Anyways this post brought to you by Shipyard Pumpkin and Shane Victorino.
Detroit can't pay the power bill.
i honestly just about died. pretty sure that was it for the series by six fucking inches. the fucking diablo eyes saved him yet again!!!

I remember 04, taking me from the lowest of the lows to the highest of the highs of being a red Sox fan. I also will also always remember it for being a month before my mom died and that we both got to see the sox win together.
I remember the last time the Tigers won the World Series. It was 1984, and I was five. My dad was watching the game on TV and I was playing with my toys. Then, one of the baseball players caught a ball. My dad leaped up off the couch, cheering. On TV all the players ran out onto the field, celebrating. I remember thinking, "The guy caught a ball, what's the big deal?"

Someone needs to combine these two gifs; put Prince's shitty slide up first then cut to Scherzer doing the "ew wtf" face.

It feels like this will be an easy one for the Cards.
World Series used to be better before interleague play. Now, it's like 'who cares?'

This would be a lame series either way; STL vs DET has been done before in boring fashion and so has STL vs BOS. I guess this way we at least have some chance for a good revenge story after the 2004 WS whoopin' STL got.

Sanjuro you were at the cask last night? My girl and I tried to get in around the 5th and they said they were not letting anyone in for the rest of the night.
We ended up at Yard House down the street.
What a great week. Started off with the Saints fucking up, enabling Brady to force Rob Ryan to make that face, then later that night Ortiz hits the grand slam which sends Torrie Hunter tumbling into the bullpen. Lackey beats Verlander, little hiccup with Peavey's shitshow, but now we have another Tiger falling down, another grand slam and where does the week end up? With the other Ryan.
Out one side, around the universe and back again. Let's go eat a goddamn snack!
Still wish the dodgers won though.

The main factor in this is that the Cardinals exist.
