Detroit News Article on Terry Richardson and Tweeting

This article talks about HS athletes and tweeting and the potential consequences. This article seems to make a bigger deal out of what Terry Richardson was tweeting when he said he didn't want to redshirt and the backlash he received, they also put his picture at the top of the article. It's an interesting read but you would have thought it was written by the Free Press with the way they make Terry sound like Yuri Wright.

1.) McDonald (due to variety of menu options, healthy alternatives, etc.)

2.) Taco Bell

You're giving westsiders a bad name. Nobody would ever go to a fast food joint for healthy food so let's just stop pretending their "health menu" is anything resembling "healthy".

Breakfast - McDonalds, no contest.

Everything else - Burger King.

Wendy's - a step below White Castle.

I'd put Subway in for both of them but I don't think of them as the classic "fast food" joint.

Who considers healthy options when ordering fast food? I would have to go with Carl's Jr. myself, but it is regional. Otherwise I would take Sonic anyday over all of the above choices save for Wendy's, sans the chili.

that it is 'cool' to bag on the big boys, but for my money mcDonald's is pretty darn good.  Of course their burgers and standard menu items can't compete with an In-N-Out or 5 Guys, but the breadth of the product offering sets them apart in my book.

Yes, greatest Country-wide fast food item out there. In and Out, Chick, etc. all have better overall food.  But for real low down fast food, you can't beat the Spicy Chicken. Even the nuggets are good.
