Will the Losing of Series Please Come to a Halt?

Fear not, Tigers fans, I am going to help us to get back on track after losing two of three to the Twins (/gags), Braves and Mets. Tomorrow night, I will be at the ballpark for the first time in quite a while. I apologize for neglecting my duties as team good luck charm. Things have conspired to keep me away from the park. Tomorrow, that all comes to an end. I am taking a group of family to the game, and since the Tigers are undefeated this year in games in which I was in attendance, I am going to go out on a limb and say we are going to win tomorrow night. Go ahead and skewer me for jinxing everything.

My husband has already warned the entire group not to bother me during the game. Good. He saves me the trouble of shooing pesky, non-game-watching people away. These folks are well-meaning, but need to learn to save non-game talk for non-game time. Let's not discuss Aunt Betty's recent health troubles during the ballgame shall we? My mother says I once rebuked her at a game for changing seats during an inning. I mean, am I being unreasonable here? Please tell me if I am. I want to know such things.

Ok. We're a game and a half back of the Twinks. I hate them. Most passionately. I will also be at the series finale versus the Twins on Sunday of next week, with another family outing. Heaven help them. I will do all I can to defeat the evil that is Twinkie-dom. Especially Jason Kubel. He is the root of all evil, I think. I am researching some very effective hexes right now to cause his bat (and glove) to always miss the ball. As if that's not enough, I am also working on a way to bring Cliff Lee here without giving up Brennan Boesch. I know, right? This would be awesome! You're welcome.
