Weekend 6 Pack – Playoffs, Players & Drama

Happy Friday Everyone! I had no intentions to write a W6P this week, but was inspired by the happenings of the past few days. It’s a little playoff-focused and has some rants, but hope you enjoy it as you kick off your weekend. Playoffs, yes we’re talking about playoffs! With the NBA and NHL Playoffs…

W6P – Wednesday Edition

There are so many interesting things happening in sports lately. Although it’s not the weekend yet, I couldn’t resist writing a sports cornucopia today – I’ll just call it a Wednesday Six Pack this time. Since March Madness ended and we took in the Frozen Four…the Masters has come and gone, baseball season is heating…

Weekend 6 Pack – 2/23

Even while on vacation in Punta Cana, we stayed in touch with the wide world of sports from our lounge chairs – and with the help of ESPN News in our rooms! As another week passes, once again there is a slew of sports news…from the silly, to the weird, and also heartbreaking, and now…

Idolizing Athletes & Coaching Changes

It pains me to write this as I’ve just watched my beloved Tigers go down 2-0 to the Giants. My prediction is already wrong and I couldn’t care less about that. I want nothing more than for the Tigers to win it for the team, city, fans and Mr I. There were two main reasons…

Sweep Dreams

Let’s be totally honest. Before the series started, no one saw this being a Tigers sweep. The Yankees had not been swept in a 7 game series in 32 years and the Tigers had too many holes to completely dominate – or so we thought. Were fans confident that they could beat the Yankees in…

You Still Can’t Script October

As the MLB Division Series’ wrapped up last night, I was really happy to have seen so much exciting baseball in the first round. For the first time ever, all the match-ups went to 5 games…doesn’t get better than being winner take all. While some may say that the baseball season is too long, I…
