This might be as good as we could have hoped.

I just didn't see games being played 35 miles from downtown Detroit.

The question which just hit me: where will the players reside? Will they reside in the Ann Arbor-Ypsilanti-Canton area?

I did learn something through all this. I always thought the tarps were there, because of lack of fans. It never occurred to me it's not safe, or up to code. My niece was going to school there, when that side opened. It was awesome. A great place to watch a game from. Does anybody remember them having a Taco Bell concession on that side? What the hell happened to it? I was also at the Buffalo game this year. They didn't even have one concession open on that side. It's like driving a car. You have to use it, or lose it.

I know last year all the players were in a hotel in Alabama.
