Wow!


-In case you live in a cave, history was made last night in downtown Detroit. Justin Verlander threw a no hitter.
-I found myself glued to the couch, afraid to get up to go to the bathroom due to old baseball superstitions. I also only flipped to Comedy Central during the commercials. That seemed to work for me.
-The first time I have ever sat and watched a pitcher throw a no-no.
-That guy is sick! And he is ONLY 24!!
-12 k's (career high)
-edit: Bigs, Storch and Grems, yes GREMS were all at the game last night.
-There has not been a no-no in Detroit since 52' (Virgil Trucks) Actually had 2 that year.
-The last one in Tiger history was 84' (Jack Morris).
-Smalz and I are going to see Kenny Rogers pitch a rehab start for the Whitecaps on Friday night. Stadium is SOLD OUT. We are sitting 3rd row next to the dug-out (Damn Brick, those are some nasty seats!!). I will provide pictures of said event this weekend.
ERB news:
-Smalz and ERB are visiting Nanny Kathy and Unkie Derek. He is off to Japan for a few years to defend our freedom.
-House is quiet without Emmy. I miss her (and mommy too...)
-Above is a cell phone pic from last week.
Other news:
-Softball game tonite.
-New car ordered and due to be here next month. That is fast.
-The movie "The Fountain" is pretentious and not that good.
-Grapefruit is good.

Turkey and I were at the game last night. It was the most thrilling sporting event experience I have ever had. My pictures were terrible because I was shaking so much.

What up my ninjas? Verlander's no-no or not. History is always made when I fly into D-town. You ladies oughta come out to SD to watch the Loins get spanked by the Chargers this december.

I wasn't there, but I watched it on mi televisor. During the game I would shake my dog's paw, but did not speak to her. Between the sixth and seventh innings she sat down next to me -- I quickly moved over to the couch. After the game we shared some beers and listened to DMX, full blast.
