The Detroit Tigers have owned the New York Yankees in their last decade. Maybe not in regular season matches, but in the postseason when it counts. It gives me great pleasure living in Connecticut to have the home team represent so well when I am wearing the Old English D around.
About eight years ago, in a galaxy far far away before the resurgence of the Tigers, I took my kids down for their first Yankees game at the old Yankee Stadium. I had heard horrible things about Yankee fans and how nasty and brutal they were. We were on the Subway up to the Bronx all four of us sporting the Tiger gear.
