the question I have is... how many games I can attend this year GO TIGERS !!
It's sad I have to use this intro, especially on MLK Day but here goes: I'm a african-american Detroiter. With that said Sharpton, Jackson, or even Bill Cosby doesn't speak for any of us !
Now on...
If anyone remembers, back in april a company called SkyTran wanted to build a transit system in the city of Detroit. With Bing/ Snyder ending the light-rail project in favor for buses, isn't it time...
with all the shenanigans surrounding Kwame Kilpatrick in 2008, and now considering the heat Mayor Bing is taking now. How different do some of you think Detroit would be if Freman Hendrix had been...
people are acting like the bus service was in such perfect, pristine condition before Bing took over !
the way these 2 teams are playing, I'll be watching from a hospital bed while recovering from a heart attack LOL ! in all seriousness though the Lions offensive line [[Backus in particular) worries...
Great time to be a Detroit sports fan these days ! the Tigers won the AL Central and will begin their quest for a world series title. The Red Wings will start their season later this month. Finally...
a proposal I have would be really hard for some people to take, but it may have to be done since the city's population has dropped so low. That would be to sell off Cobo Hall, City Airport, and...
personally, I think the Palace is easily a top-10 arena. My only problem with it is simply it's location ! with $4.00 gas here I don't think a fan from cities like Canton, Westland, and other...
Merry Christmas to all and your families !
seriously, drastic times call for drastic measures ! we're at the point that even Burger King isn't safe to go to [[2 murders there) people are fire bombing 3 houses to insure that 1 of them is the...
please disregard this one, I accidently posted this twice !
oops, I accidently posted this twice please disregard the other thread !
after reading this article, I must say I'm officially concerned about the charter revision process.

After reading this article, I've actually gotten concerned about the new city council.

is the...
I'm already hearing people asking how to get tickets ! How embarassed would the Lions be if the 1st regular season Monday Night game at Ford Field be a sellout on 24 hours notice !
the one thing that concerns me about this plan, is what is the city council's role going to be ? we know they are going to raise a lot of hell on this !
Other than that I don't disagree with...
Snyder has been quoted as saying that he believes Detroit [[and other cities) are key to turning Michigan around. If the board doesn't get it's act together you think he will work with them ?
could this possibly be the reason why Detroit has trouble attracting the brightest and best people from around the country ? not just to run the schools, but other areas like police chiefs, and other...
I'm surprised this thread has not been started, but Judge Wendy Baxter ruled that Robert Bobb cannot control academics for DPS. Now with the School Board regaining control of this, and Bobb's...
Happy Thanksgiving to you all, let's remember to be thankful for what we DO have ! and GO LIONS !!
with this being a day to give thanks, I decided to start a thread about some things we are thankful for here in the city and region. Now this is meant to be positive, so please try to limit the...
this is a good one, and I had to think creatively for this but here goes:
the large, unutilized land that is the old Brewster Projects. [[across I-75 from Comerica Park and Ford Field) I would...
whenever I read stories like these, I can't help but feel somewhat robbed ! I lived in the Plymouth/ Southfield area until 1997 [[came to college) and these neighborhoods were nothing like this ! I...
I really, truly hate to be negative. The reality is that many people simply do not want to send their kids to a DPS school. I know of several people that are trying to get their kids into charters,...
