GO TIGERS!!!!

I took a vacation day Friday so I will be well rested and possibly heavily intoxicated for this one. CANNOT WAIT!!!! Verlander vs. Sabatthia, should be a terrific matchup.

GO TIGERS!!!

Definitely cheering for the Tiggers & the Lions this weekend. Hate both the Yanks and Cowgirls with a passion.
