I wonder if Tigers fans are out there freaking out yet.

[Little Slide Rooter]

You're all sounding like Ron Santo with the premature sense of impending doom. Its the first game. last I checked, theres a few more of them ahead of us. We're all about to crucify Wood, Theriot, Pie, and Lou. Why isnt D-Lee getting any hate? he sucked all through spring training. Give it at least a month. If Theriot and Pie are still sucking, adjustments will be made. Someone will be aquired.

[Schwarber Fan]

I think we're mostly all pissed that there is no game tomorrow.

[JimSorgi]

omg, games are worth just as much now as they are in late August...what if we lose the division by one game? Huh, smart guy? Don't tell us to not freak out! Besides, I have been attacking Derrek Lee. The dude doesn't deserve to step on the field. All he's doing is counting his money. The last thing he cares about is baseball. This team is going downhill fast.

[UMFan83]

Are the Tigers 0-5 in their last 5 games that count!?!?!?!?!?!!?

[erik316wttn]

I talk to a Tigers fan online quite frequently. He certainly wasn't happy about today's game, and has some serious concerns about their bullpen. I don't think he's "freaking out" yet, though.

Nobodys ever happy when their team looses, accept maybe the 1919 White Sox, but I doubt that there talking about dumping half the players, firing the managers, revamping the lineups and what not.

All this fake doom and gloom is just as annoying as the real doom and gloom.

i think that derrek lee is overrated to some extent. not a lot, but i agree that he sometimes gets a free pass because of 05. i will give him some blame and i think there'll be more if he keeps this up.

Derrek Lee is over rated for one reason: 2005. He raised the bar too high for himself. Hes basically a .270-.280 hitter who will give 25-30 HRs but then he had to go and put up Pujolsian numbers that year, and everyone expected him to do it again. 2007 Was a good Derrek Lee season. 2005 was more of an A-Rod/Pujols season, and who knows, maybe he had a little help from his fairly godmother that year, and by fairy godmother, I mean pharmacist.

Yeah, that .913 OPS last season really needs to go.

 

This team is going downhill fast.

 

You say things like that and expect to be taken seriously? It's one game in. The problems we saw today were the same types of problems we had last season. Nothing is "going downhill". We're pretty much the same team as last season, so if you're going to complain just complain about this team not being great.

With the ridiculous posting that's been going on today, it's hard to tell what is sarcasm and what's not.

[Vanilla Ice]

That was pretty clear though

What do you have to say to that smart guy?

tigers fans realize their bullpen will be nasty until zumaya returns to full health

I agree to a certain extent but you are having a particularly hard time with it.

This is one of the most ignorant statements I have ever read on this board (or I'm just missing the dripping sarcasm). Derrek Lee is one of the classiest guys on this team, not to mention one of the best Cub hitters.

When it comes to this board, my theory is if in doubt it's sarcasm
