Is any opening day better than the Tigers?

Its downtown surrounded by bars that go all out, it always sells out, and this year like last year Sponge is playing for free at the State theatre's preparty. Having said that does anyone have a extra they are willing to sell?

Ah , memories of going to Tiger games. They never won, but it was always alot of fun. Of coarse this was when they played in Tiger Stadium. And everyone yelled " Louuuuuuuuuuuuu." when Whitiker came out, Sparky would always hop over the foul line and never ever touch it when walking to the mound, you paid five dollars to park in someones lawn, you would always enjoy reading Kirk Gibsonson's lips whenever he struck out, and you would heckle the visiting team while sitting in the the section with the visting teams families :D :D

Have not had a chance to go back and see the new stadium. Is it still the same excitment?

I would assume that the Reds opening day is much better. I wasn't even aware that Detroit still had a team. Perhaps they should hire another Red to lead them back to the promised land.

MSU don't mind these other idiots. They obviously don't understand baseball. But that is ok.

Due to the fact that the former owner of the Brewers is ruining baseball, I almost hate them as much as I do the Yankees.

Isn't his sister or something the owner now? That is like my cabin in the mountains. Mine, but "officially" it is my MIL's. Or my Land Cruiser, same thing.

I think he still owns the dealership, but someone else runs it.
