Balta1701 Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 My goodness, did anyone just see that ridiculous bit on sportscenter? Why both Tiger Woods and the Tigers are so great. Wow. What a gigantic fluff piece. We never got sh*t like that last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonderman38 Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 It's only because of the surprise. The Sox were a bit of a surprise last year, but not this big of one. But, I agree. There is absolutely no point in comparing the Tigers to Tiger Woods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spawn Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 I'm thinking we need to worry more about the Sox winning than the Tigers losing. Just my .02. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loltrain Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 The Sox get just as much positive coverage as the Tigers. Up until a week ago nearly everyone on ESPN predicted Chicago would win the world series, and talked about how great your pitching was... As for fluff pieces, how about that commercial for the ESPYs? "and everyone got behind us...." Of course, both of our teams coverage pales in comparison to what the Bostons and New Yorks of the world get, but that's to be expected.

loltrain Posted July 25, 2006 Share Posted July 25, 2006 Well, this was one of the most boring games I've ever seen, I swear every Indians pitcher took about 5 minutes for each pitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tigerfan Posted July 25, 2006 Share Posted July 25, 2006 Just read a very interesting stat. With our 5 run 1st tonight against the Tribe, the Tigers became the first team since 1891 to score 5 or more runs in the 1st inning in 3 consecutive games. The Cleveland Browns of that year had been the last to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were equally surprising. Both were teams that hadn't done spiff in a decade. The Tigers sucked the past 10 years or so, while the Sox were mediocre. You generally never strive to suck or strive for mediocrity(unless you're the Cubs), so there is no pride really in either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've always said I'd rather be spiffty than mediocre. At least you get the draft picks. Less heart break too, you can just say we suck instead of being so close, yet so far.

loltrain Posted July 26, 2006 Share Posted July 26, 2006 Looks like the Indians will win this one, Craig Monroe decides that playing defense isn't his style leading to an inside the park homer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
