Dontrelle Willis

Hey hey Tigers fans! I gotta tell you, I am always up for any sport Detroit style, but for me, baseball is where it's at and I'm plenty excited about our Tigers. I have to wonder though ...

Dontrelle Willis I think was a great pick-up. But let's not deny his spring numbers: a 1-3 record; 8.64 ERA; 16 2/3 innings pitched over six games and not getting out of the fourth in any game; 15 walks compared to 12 strikeouts. I think he will get things ironed out. What do any of you think?

After reading some of these posts, I decided to try out this RazorGator site I saw one of you talk about, because I decided, last minute as usual, to get some Opening Day tickets to see the Tigers pound the Royals. I was impressed! Great tickets in section 133 were still left and were actually discounted about $40 a pop. That I wasn't expecting, so grabbed them up and am really happy with the process. I will use them again.

Go Tigers!

Michigan Wrestling!

Well, a fine finish to the season last weekend for our Wolverines! Four wrestlers finished in the Top 8 for All-American status, starting with Josh Churella at 149lbs in 4th and Tyrel Todd at 184 lbs in 3rd. How about two guys in the finals! Eric Tannenbaum at 165 lbs and Steve Luke at 174 lbs, both finishing second. As a team the Wolverines finished in 7th and 4th out of the Big Ten schools. A great weekend in St. Louis, let's do it again next year!

Some good news from our Wolverines ...

I figured since March Madness starts today and our Wolverines weren't invited that we needed some good news ...

Michigan Hockey is ranked #1 and plays this weekend for the CCHA Championship.

Six wrestlers from the wrestling team travelled to St. Louis this week to compete in the NCAA Championships which start today. Kellen Russell, Eric Tannenbaum and Steve Luke were all Big Ten champions.

Of course, losing Terrell Pryor to OSU does put a damper on things ...
