Wed, 18 Oct 2006 01:53:19 +0000 http://www.detroittigersweblog.com/2006/10/tigers-alcs-celebration-videos/#comment-20546 Thank you Paul O. for that other clip. I was fortunate enough to have been at the game and relived every emotion when I watched that. I actually found myself jumping up and down in my chair and pumping my fist all by myself in front of the computer. I am not a fair weather fan and have been waiting for this moment to happen again since I was 8 years old. Tickets are out there, you just gotta be willing to pay. I gotta tell ya, I'd pay it again, and again and again. To be in the middle of that many happy people at once and for one of them to be my Dad, you can't put a price tag on it. One of the best days of my life! Go Tigers! ...hope I still feel that way when the visa bill shows up! Thank you Paul O. for that other clip.

Tickets were very accessible during the previous rounds. Prices were far below ebay and stubhub. It'll probably change for the WS, but it's still worth a try. Mike, go outside and talk to people.

I have no problem with people cheering on our Tigers. It's great to have them as the talk of the town. And I love the fact that people care about them again. Detroit is a great sports town. I'd say we're the best sports town in America, yea better than Boston, New York, or Chicago. I was just saying that it was nice to be able to go down there at 6:55 and get tickets without a problem, of course that only happens when you're losing. I've waited my whole life for this season and it's great, but the downside is it's harder to get into the park. I just wish I could get down there for a World Series game. Oh well, I'll be watching from Cheli's. Don’t get me wrong. I have no problem with people cheering on our Tigers. It’s great to have them as the talk of the town.

The conclusion: "Overall, the Tigers would likely be better off facing St. Louis. However, because of the Bataan Death March the Mets' bullpen is currently enduring that could change. If those relievers continue to be worked vigorously in the NLCS, then the Tigers should prefer the beleaguered Mets. If that's not the case, then they'll have the best odds against the overachieving Cardinals. " http://msn.foxsports.com/mlb/story/6065990 More good news for us with the rain out tonight. The NL pitching staffs will now have to work three straight days before the single off day prior to the WS (assuming the series goes 7 games).

I have inside information that he does not script his calls. cc- The game you are refereing to about Jack Morris was against KC on 7/6/90. Acutally the 2nd hitter, Stillwell, got the single and was erased on an inning ending double play. Next 24 retired in a row. You can look it up on www.retrosheet.org -Sam Great call by Dan!!!!

Worked out airfare, hotel, etc by about 11am, and we're set! The wife (who is very, very understanding) and I will be there on Saturday! I was lucky enough to get 4 for game 1 this morning.

I can only hope that in five years, we'll have as many bandwagon fans as the Yankees or the Wolverines do. Anyone get lucky and get tickets for the series? Nothing here--even my wife was trying on the home computer. Reportedly, only 2,500 per game went up for sale--compared to 15,000 per game for the previous rounds of the playoffs. So if you want to blame someone for the lack of tickets for die-hard fans, blame the Tigers and/or MLB. Bandwagon fans are a reality of life.
