I watched bits and pieces of the series the Tigers played against the A's this weekend. I didn't watch any of the games all the way through. The one a Saturday I was watching while on my dinner break at work and I couldn't stay to watch all of it becasue I had to get back to work. The game on sunday was a blowout after the second inning and I got bored really quick (although Ordonez's two homers in the second was cool).

But I notice something interesting. It seems like the Tigers' manager, Jim Leyland, never smiles. Or at least never smiles while the TV cameras are on him.

The Tigers are the top ranking team in the A.L. right now. They went to the World Series last year. You'd figure that their manager would smile every once in a while during a game. Even when the score was eight to two in the second inning of the game on Sunday Leyland was looking all serious.

I just think it's a bit odd that's all. The guy should smile more.

Thanks,
