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!

May 2009 Desktop Wallpaper

Here's the desktop wallpaper for May. I asked the readers at MotownSports.com who they'd like to see on upcoming wallpapers, and I was told Inge, Porcello, and Cabrera. As I have never featured Brandon, I thought I'd start with him.

Also, one reader asked that I note which games are shown in HD. So, I've added a new icon next to the game time to indicate this.

Now back to your regularly scheduled programming

My apologies for the lack of posting lately. I've been absorbed by two things these past couple of weeks, the NFL draft and my actual job.

If you've been reading this blog for a while, you'll know that I am a Detroit Lions fan. Unfortunately, I found their selections from the NFL draft this past weekend to be rather disappointing. But I digress. This is my Detroit Tigers blog, not my "The Detroit Lions will never amount to anything under the ownership of William Clay Ford!!!!!!!!!!!" blog.

On a happier note, the Tigers won the series against the Royals over the weekend by eeking out a 3-2 victory on Sunday. The boys return home to face the Yankees in a three game series. Let's keep the winning going!

Go Tigers!
