Hey, I know this isn’t a sports blog, but the Detroit Tigers make the playoffs an average of once very 15-20 years so this IS big news in Michigan. Yesterday the Tigers clinched a playoff spot with their 11-4 win over the Kansas City Royals.
The last time the Tigers made the playoffs was in 1987 where they lost to the Twins. Oh yeah, that was also the year they traded away John Smoltz for Doyle Alexander. Until this year, the Tigers had pretty much been a baseball laughingstock.
In honor of this historic win I am posting a video of a song Jeff Daniels wrote called “Lifelong Tiger Fan Blues.” It’s about 5 1/2 minutes long
