FOR REAL??

Are this year's Detroit Tigers for real? That's the big question as MLB approaches the mid-point of the season. This year's team has tried to prove time and again that they are for real by posting a major league best record this summer...but still there are questions. Because of what diehard Tigers fans have experienced in the past, it's been bdifficult for them to really believe what's going on here in beautiful downtown Detroit is legit. These diehard fans would say that this year's team has been able to handle the mediocre teams, but they've not been fully tested thus far in play against the elite teams of baseball.

This is a great reminder of how the sins of the past can often stay with us. That being said, I'm choosing to enjoy this season and the fun and enthusiasm this Tiger team continues to deliver to sports enthusiasts in Michigan.

Are they for real? Time will tell, but in the meantime enjoy their effort and bring on the Royals!
