As most of you know I am a Tiger Fan For Life. I was forced to wear this logo because of a bet I lost. I was rooting for Cleveland to win because they are a Central Division team; but they couldnt tie the knot. They blew a 3 games to 1 lead.
Shame on them for giving The AL Central a bad name. At least MY Tigers made it to the world series last year.
Your thoughts?

No, making it to the ALCS is not an easy feat. Unfortunately, they gave it up to the Yankees. But YOUR Tigers couldn't win the World Series unlike MY White Sox in 2005. So far, with the way things are going, the Central team will lose in the ALDS.
QUESTION: Would you root for the White Sox if they were in the playoffs for the AL Central? I know you despise them.

The Indians have nothing to be ashamed of this year. They tied the Sox with the most wins in the MLB. They took down the evil empire in the division series and almost beat the Sox in the ALCS. They have a great "young" team. I think their inexperience showed in the last three games. The Sox are lucky to have a core of playoff experienced veterans who stepped it up and kept the team focused on taking each game at a time. The Indians have a great future ahead of them. I thought this series was a tensed drawn out street fight and the Indians and their fans should not feel ashamed or embarrassed. They played one heck of series and in my opinion, maybe they did not go as far as the Tigers did last year, but this Indians team will have a better chance of making it back to the postseason than the Tigers.

I'm more shocked than ashamed.
I thought that their pitching staff was better than Bostons.
After being up 3-1 in the series, i could not believe that they didn't take the one neccesary game.
I will agree that you say shame on them for giving the Central Division a bad name. I thought that it was the strongest in all of baseball this year.
Even Kansas City beat Cleveland towards the end. They also made it tough on every team in their Division at some time or another.

The Indians have nothing to be ashamed of. They had a great regular season. The Red Sox this year are clearly the better team, so the fact that they were able to hang tough for 7 games and even be up 3-1 is still quite an achievement. They will be a contender for many years to come.

I believe you have to give the Red Sox more credit for winning than the Indians losing. With their backs to the wall the Red Sox had to beat the three best pitchers of the Indians, two of which will have some Cy Young consideration. The Red Sox did what they had to do and deserve all the credit. It won't make Indians fans happy because their team blew a 3-1 lead but the Indians had a great year and deserve a lot of credit for that.

Your a punk Georgie. You had an easy road to the World Series and lost to a crap team. The Tribe had to beat 2 teams with massive payroll and talent. Your Tigers couldnt even win the division and your future looks bleak because the Indians will own the central for many years to come. So before you start using words like ashamed take a look in the mirror you idiot.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, Major League IV from Hollywood is the only way the Indians can win a World Series

I'm not ashamed of the Indians more disappointed in their performance .to many mistakes.Blake was useless on left field Lofton missed a scoring run Westbrook didn't have the power to stop the Sox. best team did win no complaints about that.now lets build for 2008 and forget what was never gonna happen.

hey, you gotta give credit to the red sox...tim mcnumbnuts says the redsox outscored the yahoos 30-5 in the last three games, so, ya, shame on the tribe..the pitching and hitting all left boston before the team did... as far as blowing a 3-1 lead goes, well, tim mc numbnuts must remember doing this like it was just yesterday when his mighty cards folded to our beloved tigers in 68, and as you reminded me once made the last meek out of that series in game 7. i really wasnt pulling for the tribe in this series.. they are one of the tigers main competetors and rooting for them to me anyway would be like rooting for the twins or white sux....
