My sports pet peeve: Sports teams who adopt “Don’t Stop Believing” as “their” song

The San Francisco Giants are up two games to one against the Atlanta Braves in the National League Division Series. In an attempt to rally their team and fans, the Giants have adopted Journey’s song “Don’t Stop Believing” as their playoff anthem. The Giants are not the first sports team to claim the song as their own…. among other baseball teams in the past include the Minnesota Twins and the Chicago White Sox. Being from Detroit, I take extreme offense to team’s who think it is “their” song, considering the song was written in Detroit and even references the city in the song. Even putting my ultimate sports pet peeve aside, the song is out of control corny. The question remains… what are some of your sports pet peeves?

Congratulation Roy Halladay, second no-hitter in MLB postseason

Philadelphia Phillies Roy Halladay pitched a no-hitter in Game 1 of the division series against the Cincinnati. This is only the second no-hitter pitched in MLB post season history. The Philles beat the Reds 4-0. After the game Halladay said, “It’s surreal, it really is. I just wanted to pitch here, to pitch in the postseason. To go out and have a game like that, it’s a dream come true.”

Halladay is no stranger to no-hitters, the 33-year old pitched a no-hitter earlier this season. Only five players have thrown two-no hitters in one calendar year. Halladay is the first to throw a no-hitter in both the regular season and the post season. Watch the clip above of Halladay’s final out… and props to the fan who filmed this, which is not an easy task!
