Michigan sports, news and rants every day. Lions, Tigers, Wolverines, Spartans, Wings, Pistons, weather and the U.P. Straight talk, no fluff. If you're from the mitten, follow along.
Somebody's getting their first ring by Halloween.
Brewers won 103 games and swept the Dodgers. Rays took out Cleveland in 6 for their third pennant ever. Neither franchise has ever won a World Series.
Game 1 is Friday night in Milwaukee. I'm taking the Brewers in 6, right across the lake from us.
Early voting opens statewide in Michigan this Saturday, and more than 860,000 absentee ballots are already back.
Over 2 million absentees requested. Roughly 11.6% of active voters have already voted. In-person early voting runs Oct 24 through Nov 1, Election Day is Nov 3.
Early or Election Day, which one are you?
Last Rogers vs. El-Sayed debate is tonight at 7 on Channel 7.
Round 1 in Grand Rapids was basically two guys talking over each other for an hour. Polls have it tight with 13 days to go.
I just want one straight answer on grocery prices and tariffs with Canada.
J.J. McCarthy gets the keys in New York. Giants plan to start him Sunday at Houston after he threw for 243 yards in one fourth quarter off the bench against the Saints.
Won a natty for one Harbaugh in Ann Arbor, now he's starting for the other one.
Inkster just told a $75 million data center no, and the company packed up and left.
90 to 100 jobs pitched for an empty warehouse, but residents packed City Hall over noise, light and water.
Would you want one in your town? Yes or no.
Indiana's last win in Ann Arbor was Oct. 21, 1967. That's 59 years ago today. Now No. 6 Indiana (6-1) rolls into the Big House Saturday at noon on FOX as about a 7-point favorite over 4-2 Michigan. That streak has never felt this shaky.
Larkin's trade list is up to 10 teams now, per the Free Press. It started at 3.
Detroit wants a real top-line center back, and so far nobody's offered that.
Trade him now and take the best deal, or hold out till the deadline?

🚨 BREAKING: The White House just told middle-class Americans exactly where their paychecks have been going, and it's infuriating.
From the podium: "If you're a middle class taxpayer in this country, before President Trump came along, you spent half your working life paying for fraudsters and scammers."
Think about that. You paid every parking ticket and did everything the right way. Meanwhile, fake day cares billed for kids who didn't exist, and the crooks bought Mercedes, BMWs and mansions on your dime.
The administration says it's already recovered a quarter of a trillion dollars and is aiming for a trillion.
The looting is over. Time to take it all back.
The Lions are 3-2 and sitting in last place in the NFC North. That's how stacked this division is.
NFC North: 16-6
AFC South: 9-15
NFC East: 8-14-2
NFC South: 8-15
Three divisions can't even get to .400 and ours is the best in football.

If you live in one of the gray states, your governor has blocked scholarships from the new Trump federal scholarship program from being given to kids in your state.
And I would recommend upgrading to a better governor.
The last 8 Packers games at Ford Field were all one-score games. Combined score of those 8: 207-207.
Lions (3-2) get Green Bay (4-2) Sunday at 4:25 on FOX, first division game of the year. They swept us last year and Jordan Love has 8 TDs and zero picks in Detroit. Branch and Cade Mays could be back for this one.
Pistons were down 22 to the Celtics and won 121-113.
76 points in the second half. Cade 22, Duren 22, Duncan Robinson 21, and Javonte Green dropped 19 off the bench.
1-0. Best comeback you've seen at LCA?
789,572 Michiganders have already voted, and Election Day is still two weeks out.
2.1 million mail ballots requested, about 17% more than this point in 2022. Early voting sites open statewide Saturday.
Already voted, or holding out for Nov. 3?
Lightning started two of the three U.P. wildfires. Just over 1,400 acres, and it's burning down in the ground, not the treetops.
Craig Lake: 606 acres, 90% contained
Ridge: 466, 50%
Black River: 350, 70%
Part of Craig Lake State Park stays closed through October.
First-time champ guaranteed. It's Rays vs. Brewers in the World Series.
Tampa beat Cleveland 7-3 last night to win the ALCS in six after trailing the series 2-1. Milwaukee swept the Dodgers, the same team the Tigers shipped Skubal to in August.
Game 1 is Friday night in Milwaukee.
Pistons open the whole NBA season today at 3pm. Last year's 1 seed vs the 2 seed, at LCA, on NBC.
A 3pm tip on a Tuesday means a lot of Michigan is suddenly working from home this afternoon.
Who takes the opener, Pistons or Celtics?
Michigan is back at No. 1 in the USCHO poll. 47 of 50 first-place votes after sweeping Denver on their own ice.
Michigan State's No. 2, Western's No. 5 and Michigan Tech jumped to 11. Four Michigan schools in the top 11.
