2 weeks 1 day ago	As a high school art teacher	As a high school art teacher in a pretty blighted area of Detroit (Brightmoor) I know what a difference the chance to be able to MAKE something really gives the kids a chance to be themselves. Many of my students only come to school so they can participate in art class/art after school activities. You delivering a positive message paired with a much needed break from the unfair rigors of state standardized testing is such an incredible thing. Continue your good work, the kids need it. Thanks, and Go Blue!

Everyone thinks the Wings being in the western division is dumb because of this, and as much as Bud Selig is an idiot, he still hasn't put the Rangers or Angels in the central to balance things out. I don't get why this is still an issue. Splitting the conference based on "who's good" at a time puts everything in a constant state of movement. Pick something. Pick a name for that something. And leave it the hell alone. That's what the conferences were in the beginning, so choose something that has the foresight to last for 50 some years and take your hands off. Thanks.

6 weeks 4 days ago	Selfish.	Reading this article, and its replies, has made me begin to think I'm a bit selfish. After the game had ended, I like just about everyone around these parts, was disappointed. Why? Because I didn't get to celebrate? Because I didn't get to gloat at work today? Because I didn't get to watch these kids celebrate? Looking back, this entire season has been nothing short of perfect. Not perfect in terms of record, but the team, the individuals, the games, have been more than any one of us could ask for. The sadness has been replaced with pride, and the best kind of memories have filled the voids. This is a loss I do not want to forget. I wish we could go back in time and watch this tournament run again, knowing the outcome, simply because it was so fun. Win or loose last night, the kids would begin to continue their lives, playing for a contract, or playing for The Team, or being accountants or whatever. That is what is sad. That no matter what, last night was it.  I should be proud of , and happy for them for giving me so much excitement, so much joy over the last few months. Happy for them they accomplished so much.  Only sad that it ended, not the way it happened. I love you all and the fact that this place exists.
6 weeks 6 days ago	Please.	Thanks.
6 weeks 6 days ago	Words are none...	Seriously... (That's all I have.)
7 weeks 5 days ago	The Team	Someone should come up with a great pre game speech about the importance of "The Team" and how someday these players might be playing for a contract, and not something which is solely The Team. Then we could definitely be having this conversation again next year.

11 weeks 4 days ago	Mo?	I really feel like the offense will be very entertaining/interesting with a dominating (hopefully) O-Line and pro style leanings, with a QB that could take off and do very un-pro style things... Is this a glimpse of what could have possibly happened under Mo?
12 weeks 4 days ago	Stop.	That is the kind of inside joke that makes the front page un-readable. Who's Seth? Some LARP character?
16 weeks 3 days ago	Continued off topic...	Yes, serious. Acrylic. It was a commission piece. Not because I like the Kid.
16 weeks 6 days ago	Today, today was a day...	Happiness abounds. Finished a 5' square portrait of Kid Rock. Thankfully lost track of time, avoided the crash, and now know the great news. (I'm sure Beam and Cokes from 10:00 till 9:00 (paced myself, but still) had nothing to do with losing track of time.) Yes, the painting turned out great. Having the last of the fifth now, and turning in (way too early for a 30 year old on a Saturday) soon.

Clockwise, I'm sure (the direction of the sec) Maybe its my maize tinted glasses (or a collection of McClure's bloody Mary tinted glasses) but it seemed that the speed/power thing was neutralized a bit. Other than some dreadful secondary play (by the 3 deep) our big(ish) guys kept their fast guys in check.
