As long as the Yankees have George the buyer, they will be hated.

Tigers are often compared to the CHISOX OF 05(because people think the Chisox struggled to clinch their playoff spot.)Well,the Tigers are 15-26 since Aug 8th.I think if you look back at the Chisox of '05 you will see that even in September,they had some very nice win streaks.They won their 1st 7 games in September.They won their last 5 games of the season,and won 8 out of their last 10 games of the regular season.They did struggle in the middle of September.The Tigers chances go way up if they go on a nice winning streak to build up some momentum going into the post.Right now,I would say they are in trouble as far as the post goes.Hell,they haven't won 3 in a row since early August.
