And if the tigers come anywhere near me

Are you getting to the pissed off point?

I need to find a bunch of loud, annoying music. That will make me mad. Anger is better than sadness.

Hi, kids. The nightmare continues. Did they all decide they were going to do this to their fans?
They need to get a sports psychiatrist in there now. It's all mental. They just can't seem to break through whatever is harboring them. If they don't this will be a Cubs-caliber team.
I feel pretty betrayed by all the hype. Everything was so easy and relaxed in Spring Training...I was wondering why they didn't play harder! This is embarrassing. I feel ashamed and betrayed. I won't go anywhere, but I had to make my feelings known....

This sucks! I was worried in ST when they couldn't win but everyone said "It's only ST!!" uh huh

I need to find a firing range and get my frustrations out!

Here is what would make me feel better..

I wasn't pissed until yesterday, now I need that gun too!

My sister came home and said, "Hey Holl, No team has ever started out 7 - 0 and made the WS".... I told her we were gonna make history. Lets hope I'm right.

Actually this team does not deserve to make the WS this year.

More hits than errors for the Tigers

We are wiping our tail with that paper that said we looked so good--
Todd Jones the Prophet!

Lopez still has a 0.00 ERA!

And Sheff had 2 hits in 4 at bats!!

I agree about the psychiatrist, they have to really figure out what's going on, at this point there is soooo much anxiety.

The Cleveland Indians have come to realize the benefit of team counselors.

It's about time Illich looks into this also. Too much pressure placed on the players by fans, media and each other. The team chemistry is out of whack. Hope someone works with them in individual and group counseling sessions soon!

GO TIGERS!

LET"S TAKE THE NEXT TWO FROM THE RED SOX!
