Wtf is your problem. They are like the third best team in the playoffs. They beat a better As team and are two wins away from a world series.
With miggy being hurt and prince being so fat and they D being so cold I'd say that's pretty f**king awesome and far from choking.
You are so smart and knowledgeable I want to give you a big hug and a big fat f**king kiss on your forehead. Thank you for making the world a better place.
Lets here it for rob everybody!
HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
How do you "choke" away a series that has been head to head the entire time?
Well being favorites to go back to the World Series.
Similar to..............
THE DODGERS-favored to go to The World Series (especially win it!)
Both on CHOKE WARNING.
Rob, the others have already made the point but NOT EVERY TEAM THAT LOSES CHOKES. Favorites can play well and get beat by a team that just plays a little better. This is especially true in baseball when the starting pitcher has such an impact. Are you going to tell me that the Dodgers are chokers because they lose to Wainwright or Wacha? Are you going to tell me that the Cards are chokers if they lose to Kershaw? STUPID
As for your premise about the Tigers being the favorites to get to the WS and choking.. well here were the odds going in to the playoffs:
Odds to win the 2013 World Series:
Boston Red Sox15/4
Los Angeles Dodgers9/2
Detroit Tigers19/4
St. Louis Cardinals11/2
Atlanta Braves7/1
Oakland Athletics15/2
Tampa Bay Rays8/1
Pittsburgh Pirates10/1
Odds to win the 2013 AL Pennant:
Boston Red Sox9/5
Detroit Tigers2/1
Oakland Athletics7/2
Tampa Bay Rays
