oblong Posted October 2 Share Posted October 2 13 minutes ago, casimir said: Houston, you have a problem. So here's some useless trivia for you. In the movie Apollo 13, Jim Lovell, played by Tom Hanks, the mega star, says "Houston we have a problem". In reality this is how it played out and what the quotes were. Jack Swigert, "Ok, Houston, we've had a problem here" Then the CAPCOM asks him to repeat what he said, then Jim Lovell comes on and says "Ah, Houston.... we've had a problem". Similar to Empire Strikes Back and the I am Your Father quote that is misquoted. Carry On. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This blurring of fiction to fact is akin to the Tiger Stadium right field overhang turning fly ball outs into home runs. See, everything comes back to the Tigers. Baseball is life. The rest is just details. "Now go get a f***ing win." -- Jim Leyand 3:16 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chasfh Posted October 2 Share Posted October 2 With Holton opening, this probably means A.J. will send Foley back out on the horse in a save situation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smr-nj Posted October 2 Share Posted October 2 I’m sorry I won’t be able to join you all in the game thread today (I’m working), but I’ll definitely be checking it on & off this afternoon. Good luck, Tigers. 🐅 ❤️ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lordstanley Posted October 2 Share Posted October 2 There surely must be a word (likely in German) for the terror Tigers fans felt during the final out yesterday between the split second it took for the ball to leave the bat, move out of camera range, and end up safely in Tork’s glove.

IdahoBert Posted October 2 Share Posted October 2 Since I’m spending my last 7–10 days in the mountains of Central Idaho before shutting this cottage down for the winter I think I will take a walk along Lake Payette at Ponderosa State Park because I won’t have many more opportunities to do this. I’ll then log in and clap my hands at the run scoring manna from heaven the Tigers will have produced in my absence. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shades of Deivi Cruz Posted October 2 Share Posted October 2 Since the beginning of the three game wild card (admittedly not long ago), teams that won the first game are 8-0 for the series, and 7-1 in game two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigermojo Posted October 2 Share Posted October 2 The Astros are tired old men. They don't want to be in the playoffs again. They want to be golfing. Just let it happen Astros, the Tigers will make it quick and painless. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
