Join The Team To Fight Hunger

 Food’s a human right. 

Everybody deserves to have access to food.

Today’s World Food Day.

When most of us get hungry, all we have to do is go to the kitchen to get something to eat. 

Many of us can also get groceries, go to a restaurant or order delivery.

There are some who don't have that luxury.

Whether hunger’s halfway around the world, or next door, it affects everyone.  

1 in 6 Americans go hungry.

Around the world, 773 million don’t know when their next meal will be. 

On the side of this site, are some links to organizations that are working to eradicate hunger. 

By getting involved you are helping others.

You can also find a local food bank or charity and donate there too.

Thank you for paying it forward.

Kittens Or Tigers

 Once again the Tigers blew another ALDS series. 

They were beaten by the Mariners in Game 5 of the ALDS.

The score after 15 innings was 3 - 2. 

 What many thought would be an easy victory turned into another reason why the Tigers can’t seem to progress.

I just don't get it. 

How can a team that had a great season and a favorite to win the AL wind up blowing it.

What went wrong?

Is this any way to be a winning team, by letting diwn and dashing the hopes of Tigers fans. 

I'm well aware that the team still needs to clean up their messes.

 I also know that we made some bad moves in games and crapped out in the second half of the season. 

How can a team that had one of the best records in the AL, blow it after the All Star break.

We can never go back to having losing seasons or blowing leads like game 5. 

There's no reason for it.

Fans deserve much better than this.

Ok, I admit getting Cy young award winner Tim Skubal and Jack Flaherty back is a step in the right direction.  

I'll also admit that the baseball season is a marathon, not a sprint. 

I'll also admit that AJ. Hinch's no Sparky Anderson or Jim Leyland. 

He's also not Alan Trammel who led the Tigers to their worst season in 2003

Is it the Tigers fate, that they wind up losing.

If the Tigers don't learn from their mistakes next season, tighten up their defense, they can kiss their chances of winning the AL good bye.

Hopefully it won’t be decades before we can call ourselves World Series champs!

Go Tigers, Sink Seattle

 Ok Tigers, this is it. 

You worked hard all season, this team has come a long way. 

Show them what grit is really made of! 

Beat the snot of Seattle!

Then, Now, Forever, GO TIGERS!

Go Lions!

Ok Lions, this is it. 

You worked hard all season, this team came a long way from 0 - 16 in 2008 to 15 - 2.  

You don’t become the # 1 seed in the NFC for no reason.

Show them what grit is really made of! 

Beat the snot of Washington!

GO LIONS!

Tigers Declawed By Cleveland

Once again the Tigers blow a chance to advance in the playoffs. 

The good news: the Tigers went to the playoffs and swept the Houston Astros.

The bad news: the Tigers blew another close series. 

They were beaten by the Guardians 5 - 3 in Game 5 of the ALDS.

 What many thought would be an easy victory turned into another reason why the Tigers can’t seem to progress.

I just don't get it. 

How can a team that shut out Houston in the Wildcard game and lead the ALDS series by 2 games, f*** it up so badly.

What went wrong?

Is this any way to be a winning team, by letting down your fans. 

I'm well aware that the team still needs to clean up their messes.

 I also know that we made some bad moves in games.

This is the first year without slugger Miguel Cabrera on the roster too. 

But we can never go back to having losing seasons or blowing games like game 4 of the ALDS. 

Fans deserve much better than this.

Ok, I admit getting Cy young award winner Tim Skubal is a step in the right direction.  

But trading pitcher Jack Flaherty to the Dodgers was a bonehead move too.

Is it the Tigers fate, that no matter how hard they try, they wind up losing anyways.

If the Tigers don't learn from their mistakes and correct their course next season, there’s no hope of being in the playoffs again.

Hopefully it won’t be another 40 years before we can call ourselves World Series champs!

Prayers For Willie Mays

 Prayers, thoughts, peace for the family, friends, former teammates of baseball legend Willie Mays.

Willie passed this week from natural causes, he was 93.

The San Francisco Giants legend led the team to World Series win in 1954.

Willie also was a 2 time NL. MVP champ too.

Willie will be dearly missed.

Join Team Democracy

 Wanna make a difference for our country? 

One of the many ways to make a difference is to vote!

In 2024, Americans will go to the polls to cast their ballots.

All throughout the year, states will be holding elections to select candidates for president and other offices.

They will also be voting on ballot proposals too. 

One of those states holding elections is my state Michigan. 

We’ll be holding our presidential primary on February 27th, 2024.

The polls on Election Day will be open from 7 am. - 8  pm. 

If you’re still in line to vote at 8 pm, they have to let you vote, stay in line.

Also remember the front and the back of the ballot too.

Thanks for being the difference.
