Around SBN: VIDEO: Austin Rivers' Buzzer Beater Finishes Off UNC

Bless You Boys: The Song, the Video, the Anthem!

More than a few times, I've been asked (by non-Tigers fans) what's behind the name of this blog.  Well, here's the deal, and I'm so glad this is available to post as we kick off the 25th anniversary of the Detroit Tigers World Series championship.

Ladies and gentlemen... Bless You Boys!

Thank you, Curtis Gadson!  Here are the lyrics, if you feel like singing along.

This will be posted in the right-hand sidebar throughout the season, a click away when you need a little pick-me-up or nostalgia trip  (Or if you need a quick tutorial on our namesake.)

Thanks Ian

And if by any chance you come across the Roaring/wimpering WDIV Tiger, it would be awesome if you could post that after the Tigers many wins and few losses, too.

The quest!

Jeff, that’s like the Holy Grail of video clips right now, as far as I’m concerned. I’d love to get my hands on those. Maybe someone at WDIV can help us out. I’ll work on it.
