The offical GO TIGERS!! thread

[CubsBullsBears]

51-25, best record in MLB, .671 winning pct.

right now 1 game up on the White Sox.

I hope the Tigers keep winning and keep the White Sox in 2nd place!!

i like the tigers.

not because they're ahead of the white sox, though - that is nice, but not the reason i like to watch them.

i hope they continue to play well.

Yes, we know White Sox fans have an anti-ESPN agenda, just like they have an anti-Jay Mariotti agenda, and an anti-Cubs agenda.

I wish ESPN would just tell it like it is. There are very few actual good managers, and there are plenty of average managers who have good players.

I like the Tigers too. Mainly because I am from Michigan and should probably have had them as my favorite team all along.

 

I was watching the Tigers and Cardinals yesterday on the Cardinal station and they put up Leylands career wins and losses. He is quit abit below .500 as a manager

I'm actually an anti-Give credit to a manager for a rapid turnaround he had little-to nothing to do with. Leyland overmanages more than TLR, Dusty, Ozzie, and any other "old school" manager combined.

Most managers don't have anything to do with how a team performs in baseball. It's more the talent. Ozzie got his time on ESPN when the White Sox won the World Series, so I wouldn't be bitching.

i went to two of the cubs-tigers games at wrigley, and there were lots of tiger fans there who were big jerks, so i pretty much hate that team.

How so? What did they do or say?

[CubsBullsBears]

Tigers win again!!!!

 

Up 2 on the White Sox now!!

Tigers are going thru the NL Central like a buzzsaw, now 11-2. In 13 games they've outscored the Reds, Cubs, Cards, Brewers and Stros 85-47 :shock:

It doesn't help that the NL Central, as well as the NL as a whole (besides the Mets), basically sucks.

I'm rooting for them because they're making havoc for the White Sox. Who are White Sox fans to complain about this?? They wanted the Tigers to sweep the Cubs and they got their wish.

STOP OBSESSING ABOUT THE WHITE SOX

Exactly.

Yep. It has gone way too far.

Really, And I thought we were so Pro-ESPN and Pro-mariotti. And you always come off as so Pro-sox.

STOP OBSESSING ABOUT THE WHITE SOX

 

Yep. It has gone way too far.

I am not. With the Cubs miserably sucking the only thing preventing me from going insane is when the teams I hate don't win. If the Cubs were winning, I could care less what was going on on the South Side.

Yes, but White Sox fans have some sort of anti-agenda that they make a priority to hate on these things. We don't. We may not like ESPN or Mariotti, but we don't complain every day about them like Sox fans do.

But we (by we i mean you) do complain about the white sox and their fans every day. You remember we root for the CUBS here, right?
