Dear Tigers, I'm Done With You till Something Changes

 

 

My latest post on my blog about the latest ugly game they lost and how I'm giving up on this team. 


Basically a rundown of some things I think need to be done to improve the team.

 

Also, My thoughts on the games of late, and why I'm done with this team till I see some changes made.

Bandwagon?

You must be one of those fans picked up along the way in ‘06. Its alright, bail out for now, you’ll be back when the wins start rolling in again, be it tomorrow or a couple months down the line.

Read what I wrote

I am the opposite of a bandwagon fan… when I say I’m through with you (referring to the Tigers) i’m talking about not caring about what happens with the rest of the season… I’m not giving up on the Tigers. I just want changes. I’ve watched nearly every game this season to my own avail. I’ve suffered with this team through the 2003 years… I’ve followed them since I was 6 years old. when I went to my first game. Do not question my fanhood, you do not know me sir. I am a Tigs fan through and through, if you read what I wrote then you’d get that. I just write out of passion and that does include me saying that “i’m through” with this team till I see changes. I say these things not saying that I’m seriously not a fan of the Tigers anymore, I’m saying that i’m not going to put in the emotional investments that I typically do with this team. I’ve participated in multiple forums, I’ve written about the Tigers, I write in the comments for nearly every game (look if you don’t buy it). Don’t question my fanhood sir. Just don’t do it.

Bandwagon?

I hate that term! A bandwagon fan is always welcome to go to a game w/ me. There is NOTHING better then taking someone to their first Tigers game. Watching them get hooked, helping them understand the finer points of this fine game, and knowing that they will be back again.

There is no such thing as a bandwagon fan, only a fan that doesn’t know he/she is a fan yet.

PS. One of the big reasons that Illich is dumping money into this team is because so many people started going to the games again.

Water covers 70% of the earth, Curtis Granderson covers the rest!!

it's 2 weeks later....

....and the tigers have picked up like 6 games in the standings….has something “changed”? Just curious….

(or is this going to be one of those Al pacino in Godfather III, just when I thought I ws out, they pulled me back in” moments?)
