Do You Realize?

Posted in big tilde, detroit tigers, jerkwheat on July 30, 2008 | No Comments »

HEY! In the midst of this season of sturm and drang, did you even recognize the fact that I’m hitting .322 and am only .005 away from defending this here batting crown?

After Monday’s disappointment (bleeding over from the weekend’s disappointment), the Tigers bounced back nicely last night in an 8-5 [...]

State of the Tilde - 101 down, 61 to go…

Posted in big tilde, detroit tigers, jerkwheat on July 24, 2008 | No Comments »

So, we’ve survived what, 60, 65% of the season? I’m a Central grad so I don’t do math real good like. Either way, we’re past the 100 game mark and the bats FINALLY seem to be grooving at the same time. The Tigers are a season-high three games over the break even mark at 52-49. [...]

Um, hi there…

So, it’s been a busy couple of weeks for your Tilde editorial staff. We all returned from Detroit in one piece, but all of us have been horribly busy and it’s always the blogs that suffer when real life interferes. Anyhoo, we’re still alive and kicking in spite of cross-country moves and fire drills at [...]

Posted in big tilde, enemies of the tilde, magglio ordonez, suss on July 18, 2008 | No Comments »

I, you, me, everybody ♥s The Dugout. Can’t complain. Until their recent Seinfeldian episode:

A couple of things wrong:
(1) Woman? What woman? You mean the reigning AL batting champion? That woman?
(2) Where the fuck’s the tilde? You’d have gotten a pass were it “Elaiñe.” Without it, he looks merely shallow and pedantic.
What they got right:
(3) [...]

Clete Thomas to Toledo, Class A Prospect Called Up

Posted in big tilde, detroit tigers, jerkwheat on July 16, 2008 | 4 Comments »

On Sunday, the whole Big Tilde editorial team gathered one last time in person at Comerica - with The Bad One, who provided amazing Champions Club tickets - and the one and only Suss made an off-hand statement while Clete Thomas was batting.
“This would be a great time for Clete to finally homer”
And so, Clete [...]

Game 93: Well Done, Detroit.

Posted in big tilde, detroit tigers, tuffy, tagged on July 13, 2008 | 2 Comments »

We prepared ourselves for moistness and we got cooked.  Nicely done on averting the rain, Detroit.  Now let’s talk about averting losing…

We’re not sure we can put this on Leyland for leaving Nate Robertson out an inning too long.  We weren’t quite aware of his impending implosion until it happened.  We also believe five runs [...]
