Big Tiger fan here -- but the Red Sox have always been one of my favorite opponents. I interviewed Bill Buckner on the second day of the season in 1986 (he chewed a combination of bubble gum and chewing tobacco and when he leaned in to answer a question, the smell could knock a buzzard off a shitwagon). Good interview, though.

Oh, and Tom Yawkey's granddad (or was it great-uncle? I think Tom's dad was adopted) was from here in Saginaw -- The Center of the Universe. He made his fortune lumbering here. Anyhow, my congrats to you long-suffering Sox fans -- you're LOOOOONG overdue (like you don't know that).
