Very sad. And a little scary that it was a crash into a Manhattan high-rise. Sorry to hear it.

A team of destiny, Mick, a team of destiny!

And the Gremlins remained undefeated too.

My Tiggers are looking pretty good. I'm pretty sure SportsCenter said that no team has ever come back to win an ALCS after losing the first 2 at home. Maybe they said since it went to a 7-game format, I can't remember.

:)
Tigers are too young for destiny.
What they seem to be is a team that caught a few breaks.

Tonight, the 11-0 Gremlins (Class C) go 100 miles to play 11-0 Marquette (Class A).

I heard on ESPN this afternoon about another interesting tidbit - apparently the Met's team doctor has an office in that same building.

Oops! Cancelled

That's just not right when HS games are cancelled due to snow, and the WS hasn't even started yet!

And since when is football cancelled for snow? I thought football was played in any kind of weather, except lightning.

Girls basketball in the fall in Michigan, dummy. You knew that.

The Houghton Gremlins are defending Class C state champions.

Huh. I thought they played basketball in all types of weather too, even lightning?

Never mind!

Quirky stat for Chuck:

Oakland 2B Mark Kiger entered in the eighth, becoming the first player in modern day major league history to make his big league debut in the playoffs. He touched the ball once, catching an inning-ending force. The A's added him as a backup infielder for the ALCS after 2B Mark Ellis broke his right index finger in the first round of the playoffs. ...

Tigers are looking pretty good. Can't imagine any team coming back from being down 3-0 in an ALCS. Go Tiggers!!

How amazing is that? There's a story to tell your grandkids. That's very cool. Thanks, NV.

Yer team 2004 ? :)
