Living near Detroit we’ve supported great teams in all sports.   Yes even football though that might have been a long time ago.  Right now we’re all focused on baseball and the World Series because, though our season had ups and downs, Detroit made it into the World Series!  Really!!  Sometimes we didn’t think it was going to happen; we chased the Chicago Cubs for what seemed like forever.  Then we faced the New York Yankees, and because I’m no expert I was afraid.   Historically I always felt the Yankees were big trouble.  Turned out they were not…and here we are in the biggest series of the sport.

All along the way I said that if the Tigers could get to the World Series I’d be pleased….even proud of them, regardless of the outcome.  But now we’re here, and down two games to none…and I’m trying to still feel that way.  Hours before game three, the first game back here at home, I’m trying to feel optimistic.

I’m still proud of them.  But darn it would be nice to win this one.
