About Faygo Kid »

Spartans, Tigers, Red Wings, Pistons, and yes - the Lions. All the way. Discovered sports in 1961 when the Tigers went 101-61, and can quote you the starting lineup, the pitchers, and most of the stats. Been hooked ever since.

Can't find my damn car keys anymore, though.

    1968 World Series - Tigers come back from 3-1 deficit and Lolich beats Gibson in 7th game. 1973: Secretariat. I weep to this day at his greatness. 1979: The Spartans. Earvin, Bird. 1984: Tigers go 35-5 to start, win the Series. 1986: Nicklaus wins the Masters. I was at a party; no one else watched it. I watched it with the sound off.

    Agree, totally. I also think it's time Dantonio faced the press on this one, even if the investigation is not yet complete.
