I may not be a regular on this board, but this is a good place to rally the troops, with an inspiring speech from Kenny Rogers.

What Rogers said before tonights game:

Justin Verlander: War's over, man. La Russa dropped the big one.
Kenny Rogers: Over? Did you say "over"? Nothing is over until we decide it is! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell no!
Jeremy Bonderman: [whispering] Germans?
Nate Robertson: Forget it, he's rolling.
Kenny Rogers: And it ain't over now. 'Cause when the goin' gets tough... [thinks hard] the tough get goin'! Who's with me? Let's go! [runs out, alone; then returns] What the fuck happened to the Detroit Tigers I used to know? Where's the spirit? Where's the guts, huh? "Ooh, we're afraid to go with you Kenny, we might lose." Well just kiss my ass from now on! Not me! I'm not gonna take this. Pujols, he's a dead man! Rolen, dead!
Carpenter -
Jim Leyland: Enough! Kenny’s right. Psychotic, but absolutely right. We gotta take these bastards. Now we could do it with conventional weapons that could take years and cost millions of lives. No, I think we have to go all out. I think that this situation absolutely requires us to remind the world that this is the year of the “old’ English D.”
Rogers: We're just the guys to do it.
Verlander: Let's do it.
Rogers: LET'S DO IT!!
[The Tigers go on to win the World Series]
