Chasing The Ring Never The Wrong Move Joe louis arena.".Just once I'd like to see one of them free agents say at one of them news conferences that he's switching teams because they backed a Brink's truck up to his door.They always say they're glad to go where they're wanted. They're glad to go where the money.".the white-haired baseball skipper once opined about his sport's free agents. But I'm sure his sentiments would have applied for other sports, as well. It's just that, at the time, base.

David Boreanaz &n Son at Stanley Cup Finals David Boreanaz seems to be such a good dad. And we also know that he's a huge hockey fan.

RIP Jesse Helms Tickets, Another American icon passes on the 4th of July; few have been more Red, White and blue than Jesse Helms. Helms was unabashedly and uncompromisingly conservative. He meant what he said, said what he meant, acted on his beliefs and pandered to no one. By doing so he made a lot of political enemies and earned enormous respect. He also kept the conversation focused and gave others the courage to speak out. I met the Senator on the floor of the 1980 Republican National Convention where we both.

Watching old Avs games - St. Louis at Colorado, April 3, 1996 Joe louis arena theater tickets, This is something I'll do from time to time, dusting off an old Avs game on VHS from the basement and popping it in, and offering commentary. Call it time capsule beat writing. About a year ago, a gift of about 500 Avalanche games from the past - all on VHS - was given to me. So, when I play them here, it's for the first time ever. Most or all of these games, I was at, watching from the press box. Never saw them on TV. Today's first installment is an April 3, 1996, regular-season game betwee.

If I Were NBA Commissioner . Some of these things will never happen. But I'll say them anyway. To hear David Stern, the NBA is in peak form, especially after their manufactured LA-Boston NBA Final just completed. They set attendance records every year. The merchandising and international revenue is an incredible sum. When the old BAA hockey arena owners originally got together in 1946, this was the kind of jack they dreamed of over rounds of whisky. But the attendance figures are, of course, inflated. Yes, the tickets. Detroit.

Red Wings Need An Assistant? How About Ole No. 55? (NOT Keith Primeau, either) I.don't know that he'd do it. I don't know that he'd want to move from the relatively cushy life as a television talking head, but I'd sure like to see him give it a shot, if the Red Wings are interested. Assistant coach Todd McLellan latched on to the San Jose Sharks as their new coach; good for him. And everyone in the Red Wings family wishes him well. His promotion leaves a void on the Wings' coaching staff. Wings head coach Mike Babcock said the other day that he's been flooded with phone . Joe louis arena sports.

Revolutionary Views Big hat tip to the Detroit Free Press for highlighting the work of photographer Anne Savage of Revolutionary Views. First, it was a 360-degree panorama of the Obama rally at Joe Louis Arena (and her website provides two other shots from that as well), and now they have two versions of last night's Target Fireworks over Detroit, taken right by the Ren Cen. Well worth a look. Zoom up, down, fast, slow - amazing view from both events. Her website features other Michigan sights such as The America. Ticket Broker.

Midday open thread First Read: In the Newsweek poll showing Obama sporting a 15-point lead, the reason for that large lead had to do with the 19-point party identification gap between the Democrats and Republicans. Bottom line: All pollsters these days are finding fewer and fewer folks wanting to call themselves Republicans. And in the USA Today/Gallup poll, 61% of Democrats said they are more enthusiastic than usual about voting in November, while just 35% of Republicans said that. This goes to the heart.
