Lucas LeBlanc first blog

        Have you ever watched a major league baseball game on TV? Or better yet in person?Many people find the game boring and dragged out. However I find the game entertaing and fun to watch, espically when it is my favorite team the Detroit Tigers.With their explosvie offense and flashy defencive plays it's hard not to get drawn in to the game. There are 162 games played by the Tigers a season so you can always find a game on the old televison tube or head on down to Comerica park to see the action first hand. Either way I know you'll be glued in to the exciting action the Tigers bring to the feild every game, and every time I watch them i get just as excited when I first saw them live at Tigers stadium.

         My first live game I ever saw was when I was in first grade, but I can remember it like it was yesterday. My uncle picked my brother, cousin and myself up from school( an hour early i met add) and we were on our way to the game. I can look back and see my uncle already getting annoyed of us before we even got on the highway. However the great man he is, he still stopped at Mcdonald's for a burger and a pop for all of us. We started our journey that seemed like it took days to get to the stadium, we tried playing games to pass the time, but almost made it worse. Then just when we thought we were dying of boredom, we parked the car and started walking to the stadium. The smell of fried food and the noise of drunk people migrating towards the game filled the air around us. We found our seats and were all speech less as we looked around the stadium. Basically we stayed in the speech less from because the Tigers got absolutely destroyed by the New York Yankees 11-0. Although the tigers my have lost the game it was a day I will never forget till I die.

       I really enjoy Tigers baseball a lot, and that's why I believe I chose them as my first ever blog. I feel that week in and week out I will be able to write about my first hand experience, stats, games, players, and what the team is currently doing. By writing about something I enjoy not only will I have topics to write about, I will want to write in my blog each week. I'm excited about my first ever blog, and even more excited that I will be writing about my favorite team not just in baseball, but all sports in general.
