Doubleheader

Yesterday was the best sports day of the year so far.

The Detroit Tigers, who until recently were falling apart, won their third straight game and took out the mighty Yankees. Just a few days ago it looked like the post-season would be short and not sweet, but now it's hello Oakland, followed by (fingers crossed) the World Series.

About as good, the Wolverines beat hated rivals the Spartans. It was MSU's shot to salvage their season, but they never had a chance. We need more low-tension games like this. I realize it's still one week at a time, and there are some tough games coming up, but the Michigan-Ohio face-off is starting to look like the epic battle it's meant to be.
