Detroit Tigers are World Series bound!

[LisaE]

Hello! Well, the 2006 Detroit Tigers are headed to the World Series! 

This makes this former Detroiter living in Chicago very happy. What's cool is - the Tigers won in 1968 (when I was born), won again in 1984 (when I was in high school) and now making it to the World Series again in 2006 (I'm 38 now). I never imagine seeing a hometown team make it to the championship 3 times in 1 lifetime.  . Here in Chicago, it took the White Sox over 80 years to win the World Series! Well, it's Detroit turn now.

My 11 y/o son just took an interest in baseball this past year.  I'm happy to see him get to enjoy what I enjoyed growing up.

I'm one of the few that can remember that series,or at least parts of it. I was ten years old and can remember my teacher had a tv in the classroom so we could all watch the game,is that cool or what?I lived in Zeeland,Mich. at the time,been a Tiger fan all my life. Haven't been in the state since 1971,but have always kept up with the Tigers.Now if we can get the Lions going.
