After whomping on the Kansas City Royals this weekend (which is admittedly like shooting fish in a barrel these days - sorry KC fans) my Detroit Tigers have clinched their first playoff spot since 1987. 1980-frickin'-7.
I'm happy. I'm pleased. I'm trying to ignore the fact that I really think the Skankies win the World Series this year (should I beat the Christmas rush and start sacrificing goats now?). But whatever. My Tigers pulled it off. We still have a division to win - but even with some extremely rocky play this past month (and the Twins breathing down our necks) we're making the post season.I think this is what they mean by "unknown territory."
Back to books tomorrow....

Whooo hoooo for the Tigers. I haven't been following baseball that much recently - not since the Jays go officially knocked out of contention. I was aware that the Yankees clinched it - again - *sigh* and I knew that the Tigers were neck in neck. Since the Jays are out - I'm backing the Tigers!!
Congrats to your Tigers.
Wendy said son who loves the Reds is wearing a black arm band today because he also loves the Tampa Bay Buccaneers who as of yesterday are 0-3. So as a wife and mother of sports fans whose moods are prone to rise and fall with their teams, I offer you my congratulations and felicitations. Hope you celebrated suitably!
