All these baseball posts made us yearn for a night out with our own Detroit Tigers. So dinner tonight is classic Comerica Park fare: hot dogs, peanuts and crackerjack (I don't care if we ever get back). Root, root, root for the Tigers, if they don't win it's a shame, especially against the Oakland A's. The funny thing about Denni was that he wasn't a huge baseball fan, but liked to go to baseball games. He was furious when Judy offered me her extra ticket to the World Series in '06. My FB profile pic is one of the two of us at a Tiger game - and I think we spent the whole time talking, never really paying attention to what was happening on the field. That's what I will miss the most. Okay, there's no crying in baseball, so that's it for today.
Episode Note: "Tiger!, Tiger!" A boy and his dog, it's a beautiful thing. Bobby and Tiger are inseparable until one day Tiger goes missing. Bobby is worried that he has run away, or worse, been hit by a car. After scouring the streets looking for him, the kids all chip in for a lost dog ad and reward for Tiger's safe return. But it is only when they receive a call from Mrs Simpson across town that they discover what that dog has really been up to. It turns out that Tiger has fathered a litter of puppies and is taking his responsibility very seriously. When Tiger returns to the Brady compound, he spends a week in the dog house. Bad Dog.
So weird...on the way into the park last night, I was telling Kevin that story about the World Series tickets. Boy, Denni was mad. The funny thing is that you and I never considered going with anyone else -- especially those boys we married. As for last night's game, bah humbug!
