Sic Semper Tyrannis

My beloved Detroit Tigers finally got off the mat tonight and logged their first win of the season against the Boston Red Sox.

My feeling has been that the 0-7 start was attributable to everyone on the team trying too hard to win each game with every single pitch and every single at-bat, rather than just playing the game, outcome be damned.

The weight of expectations can often be crushing. Let's hope that tonight's win allows the Tigers to loosen up a little and have some fun.
