BYB on The Detroit Tigers Podcast

I know it's a big college football Saturday, with Michigan and Ohio State smashing helmets in what could be Lloyd Carr's final home game as the Wolverines' head coach, and will be the last hurrah for a superstar senior class that includes Chad Henne, Mike Hart, Jake Long, Jamar Adams, and Shawn Crable.  (Really, I'm just typing now to work off some nervous energy before the game begins.)

But if you're yearning for a little bit of baseball talk, Mike McClary invited me on to co-host the latest edition of The Detroit Tigers Podcast, and we run over what's been an extremely busy off-season thus far for the team.  (As you listen, you might be able to detect the pure joy in our voices over getting Skype to work for us so well.)  

We recorded the podcast before the news of Kenny Rogers firing Scott Boras became public, so unfortunately, that's not part of the discussion.  But we recapped each of the moves the Tigers have made this fall and speculate as to what else Dave Dombrowski might try to accomplish before the team reports to Lakeland for Spring Training.

You can download Episode #37 directly from this link or head on over to the DTP's home page and/or The Daily Fungo for more.  We had a great time talking Tigers on a Friday afternoon, and hope you enjoy listening to our baseball chat.  And don't hesitate to join the discussion yourselves.  Mike welcomes all the comments he can get.

Thanks in advance for downloading and listening.

Much deserved kudos
Indiana being bowl eligible would be notable enough.  But doing it after all that team and staff have been through in lieu of Terry Hoeppner's passing is even more impressive.  Enjoy that bowl game, Austin!

Podcasts and Citizen Kane
Great podcast Ian, you guys were fantastic.  I read this blog daily and find it the best around as far as Tiger blogs go.  Just created an account so hope to be posting more often.  Btw, is that a picture of Orson Welles in the post?  I know he used to do radio shows before moving to the movies and thought it sort of looked like him.

Go Tigers,

Rojo

Thanks, Rojo
Mike does a great job with the podcast, and I'm just flattered to be invited to talk about the Tigers.  

I really appreciate you creating an account so you can post.  I'm hoping to get more discussions generated here than I did in my first year with BYB.  So I look forward to chatting with you.

And yep, that is indeed Mr. Orson Welles.
