OT: Michigan Forced to Wear Practice Jerseys


Hats off to our friends in Ann Arbor today...

The Michigan Wolverines' charter jet's aborted take-off and crash on Wednesday -- led to the NTSB/FAA not releasing the gear in the cargo hold of the plane, until they complete their investigation.

So, Michigan had to pass on wearing their game uniforms (locked in the plane) for practice gear.  And, they proceeded to hammer Illinois 75 - 55 in their Big Ten Tournament game.

My Dad, a Former Detroit Tiger Turns 80 Today!


My Dad (his rookie card with the Detroit Tigers above) -- Jim Small -- just completed his 80th lap around the Sun today!  Happy Birthday Dad!

One of my two favorite poems is this below -- and a "name" is what my Dad gave me many years ago...

Your Family Name

You got it from your father
It was all he had to give
So it's yours to use and cherish
For as long as you may live

If you lost the watch he gave you
It can always be replaced;
But a black mark on your name
Can never be erased

It was clean the day you took it
And a worthy name to bear
When he got it from his father
There was no dishonor there

So make sure you guard it wisely
After all is said and done
You'll be glad the name is spotless
When you give it to your son
