A big name coach like Nick Saban doesn't want anything to do with a shitty, overrated school like yours. ENOUGH!
Yeah? Checkmate.
When I was in college, I studied abroad. Quite a few, in fact.
My rabbit grunts like that pig.
I think it's ironic that the author's last name is "Ley."
Hey! You should move out here to Colorado...weed's legal now!
Edify us...
It's not. But then, again, most host cities aren't $20 billion in the shitter.
Not true. The fact is that the Ilitches already OWN most of the city. Their plan was to gobble up what they could for pennies on the dollar — and then invest. After which time, they'd essential control Detroit. Think owning two major sports teams was because Mikey likes hockey and baseball?
You're absolutely right. In "It's a Wonderful Life," the dystopian city was named Pottersville. Might as well start changing Detroit's name to "Ilitchville."
Mr. Karmanos didn't "build" the Barbara Ann Karmanos Cancer Institute. It already existed (under different names). He gave it a gift of $15 million, initially, and continues to support it. After some cajoling, he agreed to have it named after his late wife who lost her battle with breast cancer. (I was there.)
And not every city where this is happening is $20 BILLION in debt...with discussions about selling off its art collection.
Uh huh. Just like the humanitarian Kennedy clan — buying up all those banks during the Crash of 1929. Not at all for the opportunity to become richer than God.
Right. Mr. Ilitch is a true humanitarian. Do you know how much Detroit land his family is sitting on? Remember all those embarrassing dark, vacant buildings during the Super Bowl? Yep. Those are his, too.
You're absolutely correct. The teams threaten the host cities with a potential move. Fuck 'em all, I say. Let 'em go.
Why seek private investment (and give away equity) when the host city gives you what you need scott-free?
Behind bur-quas.
Looks like SOMEONE raided a McDonald's PlayPlace.
Ewww...baseball is such a rough sport!
