I’m glad today is an off day. I can use the breather!

Even if under a restricted playoff format like one I’d prefer - a 15 team league, no divisions , top 3 make playoffs with the #1 team getting a bye into ALCS - there would be still some excitement around the Tigers. They’d be 4 games behind Baltimore and 3 games behind Houston in the race for that 3rd spot behind NYY and Cleveland. So would be going into final week with a shot at making it, albeit much less so than under the current format with 6 teams making it.

The point is that they’ve made up 10 games. The other ones who have done so probably had much better records at the start of their comebacks than the Tigers did.

We may as well cheer for a Yankees sweep of Baltimore in NY this week. You never know.

The past 6 weeks of this season may be as surprising as the first 4 months of the 2006 season.

Because they feel they can afford to be. No killer instinct, true, but I think if they really needed a score they would have got one.

Not concerned at all about the offense. Encouraged by the defense. Somewhat concerned about mounting injuries. Wondering whether to be concerned about Packers and Vikings.

Sox win, it’s official - the Tigers are in the 3rd wildcard spot, a game up on Minnesota.

Are the Vikings good?

Lamar breaks those big Dallas hearts, lol.

living with Kelly …

The Lions seem to be able to score whenever they feel like it. Just didn’t feel like it in the 2nd half, lol. Was like they were trying to give their defense a test.

Game over! Same time the Red Sox are busting their game over.

Unless the Lions have a brain cramp, should be able to run this down to the 30 second mark before giving ball back.

6-2 Boston!!

You need to try at least one pass here.

1-score game.

Branch down. Ouch.

Frustrating thing is that if the Lions were down by 10, I’m 90% sure the Lions would score a TD on their next drive.

5th chance coming up for the Lions. End this game now!!

2-0 Minnesota, still batting.

White Sox blow 8th inning lead, lose their 120th.

Why hand off? Lions have had 3 second half drives to kill off the game - 0 points.
