July 30, 200421 yr I'm off to Detroit... Hold down the fort, don't kill eachother, and I'll try to get Kenny all liquored up and get some info And maybe.. if I'm real lucky.. I'll run into D12.
July 30, 200421 yr Stay safe! And bring us some wins for God's sake!!!! BTW I hope traffic is better than MIL
July 30, 200421 yr Don't forget to goto the currency exchange for Michigan money and do not drink the water.
July 30, 200421 yr Stay Safe, Steff. Enjoy your trip, and say hello to Comerica for us. Tell the singing vendor to shut up.
July 30, 200421 yr Don't burn the city down Doesn't that happen every Halloween? Post your comments about your trip to the rat-hole when ya get back, kay!
July 31, 200421 yr Author While the cat's away, the mice will play...on the AOL board!!! Sorry Brian... but I brought my laptop.. Not so bad here. The park is awesome. Traffic sucked, and we got here late. But other than that.. it's OK. Had mass quantities of alcohol last night... as did everyone else. At one point we almost had a bus loaded ready to leave for the nearest bridge... Everyone is down. Especially Willie (and Aboz you'll be happy to hear he quit smoking ). Spent a lot of the night talking with everyone. Jim and a few others talked Santana's ear off. He stayed with them till 2 in the morning. He's got some stories.. Herm and a few other guys on the staff stayed, too. We all had a great time. A lot of fans are here, which surprised me. Kenny isn't here. No one is sure if he's coming.. and no one knew anything about what he's doing. But many agree that Sweeney should not be moved. So, that's about it. Pretty quiet night. No D12 sighting yet.. but the Hanson Brothers are in town....

Boy, if only I could sit in their dugout for one inning, that'd be the day.
July 31, 200421 yr but the Hanson Brothers are in town They got the foil on? We sure could have used them when the twinkies were in town. Is Dave back with the Dead Things?
August 1, 200421 yr Author Bla... it's no fun when you lose. Went back to the Ritz for a nitecap and figured everyone would be in a bad mood... but nope. Urbina came over with Ozzie and Freddy (and you guys would be sick to know how close we were to getting him in the spring :puke) and most of the guys came in for a drink. The surprise of the night was seeing Loiaza still here. Took some pictures, had him sign a ball (for when he wins that Cy Young.. ) and he talked with us for a good hour. Ozzies sons are awesome. They talked with us for a long time about how things are in the clubhouse, and possible moves the Sox might make in the near future. Surprisingly everyone was fine, talked positive, and are still confident they can pull this winning thing off. So it's back to the park today. The fans have been ok for the most part. A few jerks here and there but nothing major. Hopefully we can pull this one out.

I almost got to go to Detroit this year, my Dad almost had a 3 month contract to do some I.T work in the Windy City or in Minny I think, would have loved to catch some baseball while I was over there. Hopefully we can pull out a victory for ya.
August 1, 200421 yr i think that steff is distracting the team too much, she's kim basinger in the natural except she's doing it to the whole team. FOR SHAME!

Stay at their hotel and go to the bar, even if you cant go to the bar youll definitly see some of them around the hotel unless you just sit in your room the entire time.
