Tigers will lose: handwritting is on the wall

Tony,

I hate to say I told you so, but I told you so. In my strong opinion, the Tigers were destined to loose because of the lack of leadership, discipline, and mental toughness it takes to be a champion. With Cabrera, the Tigers have built their franchise around "sinking sand" and its only a matter of time before this late season failure happens again.

Tigers will lose: handwritting is on the wall

Tony,

With all the controversy with Cabrera, the Tigers are going to loose. Worse, this season which should have been a real positive for JL will be his last; someone is going to have take the fall for this season and Jim is going to be the one. The worst part is that Miggy will still be here next year and he will still be drinking until something really bad happens. The Tigers loosing the race and not going to the WS isn't enough to stop him from drinking.
