Look up, look waaaaaay up.

The 2025 Tigers and 2006 Tigers were both 25-13 after 38 games. The 1968 Tigers were 24-14. The 1984 Tigers were 33-5. The 2003 Tigers were 9-29.

Coincidentally, I’m graduating Saturday with my M.A. in Theological Studies from a Catholic college (Jesuit-oriented) at the University of British Columbia. My quick reaction. Most North American cradle Catholics will like this pick, many North American convert Catholics might not. Despite what you might see on social media, convert Catholics are a minority within the Church but are zealous and outspoken. Increasing in importance. Younger priests, like the pastor of my parish, also tend to be more conversativr, hence the re-introduction of things like a communion rail in some parishes. Going into the conclave, I saw him as one of the best candidates but thought his being American would rule him out. Fact he is so international though, even being a naturalized Peruvian after 20 years there, and is fluent in Italian and Spanish, made him acceptable. Choosing Leo as his name is the biggest indicator of his values, IMO. The most recent Pope Leo was in the late 1800s and was the father of modern Catholic Social Teaching. Overall, I like this pick.

Chet was always one of my favourites. That Game 3 is the only World Series game I have attended in person. The game was a blowout and a walk-fest and that was the one memorable moment.

Habemus papam!

Extra inning victories that inspire me to drink and to go streaking up and down my street could be considered immoralizing wins.

This could be the Leafs' year. Gulp.

Grizzlies is a touchy subject for me, sorry.

Sounded like a home crowd for the Tigers on the radio in the 10th inning, including on the final out.

I want to see what Javy’s doctor could do for me.

Trevor Thompson out from Fan Duel.

Of course. Plus I missed it because I misread the time.

Maybe for goalies they should move the draft age from 18 to 21. They're such wildcards.

Blues off to 2OT in Game 7

Holy, the President’s Trophy-winning Jets score two goals in final 2 minutes, including one with 1.6 seconds to go, to force Game 7 to overtime. Look who scored the 3-2 goal.

+63 run differential but somehow the Guardians with a -23 run differential are only 1.5 games behind.

My TV listing has the Tigers game down as the only MLB Network game at 9:30pm ET.

Magglio's was one to right, one to left.

Greene with 2nd HR of the inning! This is crazy.

5 of the 9 Tigers in the lineup right now have an OPS of .800 or higher - Tork .873 - McKinstry .853 - Carpenter .830 - Dingler .808 - Baez (!!) - .803 Greene is right there at .795
