With the Tigers in the World Series, the most popular folks in this town are not the relatives of Justin Verlander. They are the lobbyists who have all sorts of connections.

SOUTHFIELD, Mich. (WJBK) - FOX 2 viewers alerted us to an online video parody they say is firing them up in time for the World Series.
A YouTube channel called 'The NOC' posted the World Series parody set to the tune of Fun's hit song "Some Nights." It features clips of both the Tigers and Giants.
NOC says it's an entertainment channel about "the personalities and lives of athletes."

Lyrics:
Some games, I stay up, scream at Tim McCarver Some games, I dress like Joe Buck Some games, I wish that I was Miguel Cabrera Some games, I wish I was Posey
But I still stay up, watching every out Oh Lord, I'm still not sure 'bout Valverde, oh I watch Verlander; I watch Bumgarner Leyland, don't you smoke anymore?
Scutaro, Barry Zito, oh oh
Santiago, Octavio, Phil Coke, oh oh
It's not baseball, this is war - what are we waiting for? I think the series might go seven I'm watching until my eyes turn numb - grow my hair like Lincecum You're lucky if you can score a run, 'cause even in the pen The boy's got style
And that's alright; Prince Fielder's on TV tonight All Detroit is praying he'll hit a slam, hit a slam, hit a slam Oh, eat a ham. Mmm... mmm...
Well, some games, I wish they would never end And they would sub me in for DH And some games, I hit like I'm Hunter Pence Some games, I always win, I always win...
But I still stay up, watching every out Oh Lord, I'm still not sure 'bout Valverde, oh I watch Verlander; I watch Bumgarner Leyland, don't you smoke?
