		<title>VIDEO: Dave Rozema&#8217;s Famous 1982 Karate Kick at Tiger Stadium</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Baseball fights are rarely memorable.  But when they are, look out.
The video clip below is from a game at Tiger Stadium in May of 1982 between the Minnesota Twins and the Detroit Tigers. 
There were scraps throughout the game &#8212; but the one everyone remembers is when Dave Rozema came flying across our television screens feet [...]]]></description>

		<title>New NFL Overtime Rules Could Change History</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have trouble recalling whether Phil Luckett was a referee that was plain bad or a victim of poor circumstance. Now 10 years since he last wore the white hat in the NFL, Luckett remains a fixture in the rules of NFL games, as his mess-ups have brought on rule changes in the league. On [...]]]></description>

		<title>Great Memories of an Old-Time Tiger Stadium Souvenir</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Ok, so here I go again waxing nostalgia about Tiger Stadium and all my great memories at that green cathedral.
Too bad. I can’t help it.
One of the all time great Tiger Stadium souvenirs from the 1960’s was the cardboard, megaphone popcorn holder with a handle on it. When you were done stuffing yourself with the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Detroit: A Sunday City</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It must have been an unusual sight.
 
If you were driving on Michigan Avenue last Sunday morning, just before noon, and you thought you saw a guy traveling east in a Ford Freestyle, tooling along at legal speed in the middle lane as he approached Trumbull Avenue &#8230; and he had his left hand pushed across his eyes so he couldn&#8217;t possibly see [...]]]></description>

		<title>Detroit Tigers Legend “Wahoo” Sam Crawford</title>
		<description><![CDATA[On the brick wall beyond the left centerfield fences at Comerica Park, the last names of several Tiger Hall of Famers are listed in white lettering.
It’s a safe bet that a lot folks at the stadium see in the name “Crawford” and have absolutely no idea who “Crawford” might be. After all, fans in 1999 [...]]]></description>

		<title>The D-Train&#8217;s Last Stand</title>
		<description><![CDATA[For a fleeting moment last year, I thought he was back. In front of a decent crowd on a comfortable mid-May Tuesday evening, Dontrelle Willis pitched 6 1/3, giving up one hit in a 4-0 win over the Rangers. He was the toast of baseball for the evening, as Baseball Tonight and every other show [...]]]></description>

		<title>No Gold Cup Races in Detroit?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Say it ain&#8217;t so&#8230;
 
For the first time in modern memory, the prospect of a quiet &#8212; too quiet &#8212; summer is hanging over the Detroit riverfront.  The annual hydroplane race that has brought literally millilons to the shores along Jefferson Avenue and Belle Isle is in jeopardy this year, owing to the daunting challenges of modern [...]]]></description>

Over the course of 42 seasons, Harwell became the voice of summer in Detroit and a man so revered that it his hard to find someone else more admired in Michigan. Sadly, at 92, he is critically [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Meaning of Spring Training</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I will be honest, I put way too much stock in spring training. Joel Zumaya has a bad outing as he works on a new pitch &#8211; I have a bad day. Miguel Cabrera goes 0-4 against the NY Mets split squad &#8211; I wonder if something&#8217;s wrong. Max Scherzer has back-to-back bad starts &#8211; [...]]]></description>

		<title>EL SID</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I hate Sidney Crosby.
 
Now, before that statement sets off a border war with our neighbors to the south (yes, we in Detroit can literally look down on Windsor, towards which generations of Motown Men have beaten a frenzied path in search of the famed Cheetah&#8217;s Lounge, home of the Forty &#8211; count &#8216;em 40 &#8212; Jungle [...]]]></description>
