If the White Sox aren't going to do it at least some ne from the division did. I think they are going all the way this year.

Gotta say something nasty. Must be a Yankees or Oakland fan.

Wow, what a finish... a walkoff homer by Magglio Ordonez!

Detroit is an absolutely amazing team this year... Congratulations, Tigers, for a well-deserved trip to the World Series.

I am really getting a kick out of the Tigers this playoffs..

I see them with Pudge Rodriguez and Kenny Rogers, both of whom were mainstays for the Texas Rangers for years...

Pudge should never have been allowed to leave..and what does he do? He promptly goes to the Florida Marlins and wins a World Series...and possibly is going to do the same with the Tigers...

I am rooting hard for the Tigers...Texas North, doncha know...LOL

Just kidding... The Detroit Tigers are simply amazing this year, and definitely deserved this win... congratulations to them!

I'm hoping for a flyover country world series this year. Tigers and Cards.

Detroit is known for its riots in response to sporting triumphs. Nasty, yes ... but true.

It was fun to watch. Leyland is a great manager, and I don't see any arrogance in the players. They seem very grateful to the fans. Might be something to that "destiny" thing. Also, I can't remember seeing that many flame-throwing pitchers (95-103 mph) on one staff before.

Actually he has a good question. Detroit has a history of excessive celebrations. But I do hope you win.

They didn't do it for the Pistons, they didn't do it for the Red Wings... What are you blabbing about? Now the COLLEGE towns are a different story.
