Back from vacation

My apologies for not posting as of late. With two kids in school, the year-end activities kept me and the wife pretty busy. Then, my wife and I took off to celebrate our 10-year anniversary, and there was golf to be played and beaches to be sat on, so updates were far from my mind. And, to top it all off, work has been absolutely crazy busy for the past six weeks, so I've had very little free time. I promise that I'll try to be more frequent in my posting on here.

On a Tigers related note, the Sporting News released their latest Power Poll. They have the Tigers ranked #4 moving up three spots from last week. I don't hold too much stock in these ranking systems, but it's an interesting read nonetheless. Here's the link to the article, http://www.sportingnews.com/mlb/article/2009-06-22/power-poll-pujols-cardinals-fly-top-3.

I'll be working on the desktop wallpapers this weekend, so look for those early next week.

The Tigers open a three game series against the Chicago Cubs today. Let's keep the winning streak alive!

Go Tigers!

Short break from baseball

This is a Detroit Tigers baseball blog, but every once in a while, I need to give a shoutout to something else. In this case, that something else is the Detroit Red Wings.

Unless you live under a rock, you probably know that tonight is Game 7 of the Stanley Cup Finals. This has been one of the best Finals series I've ever watched, and I cannot wait for the puck to drop.

Not much more to say except....

Let's Go Wings!!!!!!!!!!!!

June 2009 Desktop Wallpaper

Here's the wallpaper for the month of June. As of last night, the Tigers are sitting at the top of the AL Central division with a 3.5 game lead on the KC Royals. Except for that hiccup of a series against the Rockies, the Tigers have won three of the last four series.


The Tigers head to Baltimore for a four game series and then come back to Detroit for two series. Now is the time for the Tigers to put some serious distance between them and the rest of the division.

Go Tigers!

Note: I had to update the wallpapers to include a make-up game on the 8th and to correct the month on the 1680x1050 and 1280x800 sizes.

Oh my....

Last night, the Tigers' bats were on fire. Two grand slams, one for Ryan Raburn and one for Brandon Inge. This was really great to see after the disappointing series loss to the Twinkies in the sagging Metrodome. Let's hope the bats stay on fire throughout this series and the rest of the month. I think it's critical for the Tigers to put some distance between themselves and the rest of the division.

Go Tigers!
