DayDreaminHippie68 and I are going to the Tigers-Chisox game tonight...

[WannaBeGrumpy]

...just sayin'

Go Tigers!

:woohoo:

[ScreamingMeemie]

1. ...and they made it...in one piece.

And even got the giveaway.

Hey, WannaB, there's a rumor in Sports Illustrated that the Tigers are going to have a fire sale. Poppy just told me.

[bigwillq]

3. I didn't read this post

before I posted.


How far are you away from Detroit? :shrug:

:hi:

[ScreamingMeemie]

8. We are about 10 minutes by freeway. It takes about 15 to get to

Comerica. :hi:

[bigwillq]

14. That's not bad then.

But a mother always worries, huh?!? :hi: :)

[ScreamingMeemie]

15. Always...

Because it is Detroit, even though the downtown area is really nice.

If you ever make it for a visit, I'll take you to a game. :hug:

LisaM is coming to town in late June and we're taking her.

[bigwillq]

16. Oh that would be fun.

And you and LisaM are going to have a great time!

I don't travel much, but we will see.

I really, really, really want to mee you in person. Maybe one day. :hug:

[1gobluedem]

17. What about meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee?

I am also going to the Tigers game with MrsG and LisaM -- my first at Comerica!

LisaM and WannaBe will be battling over Maggs; we may have to call in Security if it gets ugly.

[bigwillq]

18. I hope you have a great time too!

:) :hi:

[1gobluedem]

19. Thanks!

I hate being left out of the fun...:hi:

[ScreamingMeemie]

20. Or, we'll just get up and quietly move...

I assumed (and you know what that does ;) ) that bigwill knew that LisaM was your sister. I would never, ever ever forget you on purpose.

WOOT!! Magglio just threw someone out at 2nd from the outfield. And, it appears he got his haircut..not totally short but a couple of inches off. :loveya:

[1gobluedem]

22. I try to keep it under wraps that LisaM is my sister

Don't want the feds to find out....:rofl:

Granderson is my guy but I'm sure Maggs is mega-swoon material with the new haircut.

[ScreamingMeemie]

25. Hehehehehe...

and yet you want to hang out with me, crazy girl.

I just got off the phone with WannaB and she is having a good time. :)

[1gobluedem]

30. Better warn her that LisaM is aiming to give her some serious competition

She's out getting a pedicure right now in case Maggs has a foot fetish.

[ScreamingMeemie]

33. Hehehehe... I can see them both falling over the railing into

right field. She just said that he is more engaged with the crowd this year. He looks up and smiles and salutes and all that. I remember the first year he was here he barely looked up. I think he's less afraid of Tiger fans after last year. :)

[1gobluedem]

34. We'd better bring a video camera

Just in case...:rofl:

[ScreamingMeemie]

35. No doubt...

One time we were at a game and a fan jumped onto the field from the outfield... My phone immediately rang with my brother making sure it wasn't his niece.

[bigwillq]

23. I actually did not know that.

:)


New England is very pretty. You would love it here. :hug: Although it is expensive. :(

[ScreamingMeemie]

26. We will meet each other some day...

That I promise. :hug: I'd love to visit out East again. I loved Syracuse when we lived there.

And, I have extra room here if you ever feel like visiting what is quickly becoming a ghost city. Although, I lived a stone's throw from the water, so you can walk and see the barges. There is a waterfront park at the end of our street. :loveya:

[bigwillq]

32. I love the water.

We're about 10 miles from the great Long Island Sound. :)

Where I am at now, at my office, the Sound is just on the other side of the highway.

I would never live anywhere that wasn't close to the water. :)

[1gobluedem]

27. I love New England

Try to take a trip there every spring but we didn't make it this year.

[bigwillq]

2. Have fun!

Enjoy! :hi: :hug:

Go Sox! :P


:hide:

[sniffa]

4. I was gonna say...

They're not playing the Sox, so who cares?

[bigwillq]

6. But they are.

Just not the Red ones! :)

[sniffa]

7. Oh right, there IS another Sox team

Sorry, I'm from Boston. :D

[Xipe Totec]

5. I had to turn down free tickets to a Red Sox game at Fenway

because I was teaching class.... :cry:


Two weeks ago...












and I'm still crying.... :cry:

[bicentennial_baby]

9. And you didn't PM me?!

x(

[Xipe Totec]

10. Sorry! Sorry! Sorry!

Company thang... employees only. :-(

[bicentennial_baby]

11. I can pretend!

:bounce:

Hehehe....

[Xipe Totec]

13. If only....

in a company with less than 100 employees, everybody's on a first name basis.

I couldn't even sneak one of my sons in...

[ScreamingMeemie]

12. WannaB and DayDreamin are going to the Tigers game tomorrow

too. Wouldn't it be nice to have (or at least think you have) no responsibilities?

[KitchenWitch]

21. Geaux Tigers!

:D

[ScreamingMeemie]

29. Yes!

We have killed the winning streak for the Chisox. :)

[KitchenWitch]

31. Thank you!

We should have.

[Initech]

24. The Tigers have a great stadium!

I went to a game in Detroit last year and had a blast. I'm planning to go to a couple of games when I head back there in August.

[ScreamingMeemie]

28. Let me know when you're coming and maybe we can get a group

of DUers together to go. That's what we're doing the end of this month. Plus, if you need lodging, the door is open and I have an extra bedroom.

[Initech]

36. I'm planning to be there Aug. 1st. - 6th.

Oh and I'm staying at my bro's house so I wont need any extra lodging, thanks!

[Strawman]

37. Great game to see

I missed it, but heard that Verlander pitched a complete game 3-hitter.

A sweep of the White Sox would give us some momentum...finally!

And it's always fun to go to the ballpark on a nice day regardless of our record.

[ScreamingMeemie]

38. Yes he did!

They are back at today's game.

They have gotten two nice days out of it.

We're going with 1gobluedem to a game on the 24th. :hi:

[Strawman]

39. I saw Verlander vs Beckett earlier this year

It was cold and rainy and we lost :(

I don't think I'll be making it out to any more games this summer. Our first baby is on the way :) (in a month...possibly sooner...or a couple weeks later). :hi:

[ScreamingMeemie]

40. Congrats!

How exciting... I hope everything goes well. :hug:
