Seth practically ran up the stairs to bring me this news a few minutes ago…

Justin Verlander struck out 12 hitters tonight in the Tigers’ first no-hitter since 1984.

Watch the video at the link. These are the kinds of baseball moments that take me to the 80′s, when I was a kid and baseball was practically GOD.

We here at churchofthegeek.com of course do not condone the abuse of animals, nor do we plan on hanging out with Mr. Vick anytime soon. At the same time, we would be more than happy to gamble against him…in dog fighting or football…

So I was down in the basement with J tonight, and basically out of nowhere I stated that if there were two ‘events’ that happened in the sports world that I could change/stop from happening, they would be…

This poor guy needs a new hobby or something.
