Its nail-biting time here in Detroit as we prepare for the September stretch pennant-drive. Can our beloved Tigers hold off the White Sox and Twins. Its been so much fun to have baseball mean something again. Detroit is a great baseball town, but its been dormant for so long due to crappy teams. Its so cool to see kids, teenagers and even twentysomethings that have never seen winning baseball get excited. GO TIGERS!
Clinically Proven
I hate the term "clinincally proven". It seems like every commercial on TV uses this term. What clinic? Who is doing all this proving? Hell, I can say my kitchen is a clinic and I can prove anything I want. This saying should be banned. I propose we all by NOTHING from a company that touts their product as "clinically proven."
Football!
Ah, the joy of fall, football begins this weekend. Bring it on! I love football. GO BLUE! Michigan will lose 3-4 games and Lloyd Carr will be on the hot seat. Meanwhile, the Lions will win 8-9 games and surprise people. Their defense will suck, but Mike Martz will bring us an offense that should be fun and productive. Besides, I need 'em to win 8 games to collect on a case of Redhook I bet my brother.
Playoff Tickets
Major League Baseball sets the price of playoff tickets. Can you say "gouge"? Our invoice is for $2800 for 2 seats for the playoffs. We paid only $600 for our 21-game package. Ouch. I think I'll watch on TV. C'mon Tigers!
Kaiser Chiefs
I can't get enough of "I Predict a Riot" by the Kaiser Chiefs, a band out of the U.K. Great song.
The Buddy Culver Show
I've been a bit lax in getting new shows of my podcast out lately. Summertime means I am outside and not in the bowels of the basement. However with my producer Mario going back to school and the weather starting to cool off, I'll have alot more time to put out my rockin', indie music podcast.

My Cousin Russ
Say a prayer or two for my cousin Russ, eh? He's been battling lukemia. He had a stem cell transplant a few months ago, but has been battling viral infections and is hoping for no new occurances. Get better cousin.
