No wonder you're so pessimistic.

I live ~ 3 miles from where you are.

Not sure how much sarcasm or how familiar you are with the area.
But 8 mile (and all the mile roads pretty much) run on eastward from where you are all the way through Detroit.
If you take 8 mile about 20 miles east or so (past telegraph) you'll see what it's all about :p
You are in Northville though. A lot of wings live in that area. Of course it's all gated communities and very well off families ;)


Sarcastic, but not familiar with the area. Seems I'm a long way from the trailer parks and clubs with rap battles though.

Yeahhh. When I was in my travel league for bowling my dad tended to be heavy footed between 6 and 10 mile.

Fewer gated communities, more gated store windows that basically screamed "I keep a shotgun under the counter."


On days back from the Joe, we'd blow a lot of stop signs in those areas, lol.
Not worth the risk...

Had a meeting today in a Detroit suburb, northville.

Gotta say that the "8 mile road" reputation is bullshit. The 8mile road I'm seeing has gated communities and multi million dollar mansions on lakes.

Eminem is a fraud.


8 mile out west by northville is very nice. Travel much further east down 8 mile and it's super ghetto lol

Little Caesars Arena

Does that sound bad to anyone else or am I just being picky?

I don't have an issue with the name. People seem to be up in arms about it. It was going to get sold to a corporation no matter what. Why not LC?

Anyways:


Little Caesar's Arena: the only place on Earth where a Hot N' Ready costs $18. ;)

Oy. Although I'm sure they already have little Caesars in JLA. Just feels cheap to go from an icon like Joe Louis to a cheap brand of pizza that's competing with Dominos to be the worst of the major delivery chains.

Hopefully at the end of this they rename it Mike Ilitch Arena or he gets a statue somewhere. Dude is actively trying to rebuild the city more than just about any other of the big families in Detroit.

the biggest thing for me is that they are putting a giant fucking little caesars logo on the roof ...
idk if its just a projected screen but according to some sources it looks pretty permanent ...
