Re: Is Big Oil Punishing Blue Counties in Michigan?

Many stations in western Michigan get their fuel from refineries in NW Indiana as opposed to Marathon's refinery in Detroit. That sometimes causes price differences.

Amazon Fresh is coming to SE MIchigan (bricks & mortar grocery stores)

I learned about Amazon Fresh's ambitious entry into the Metro Detroit market from an article that appeared early this morning at detnews.com: https://www.detroitnews.com/story/business/2022/07/05/grocery-wars-amazon-fresh-shake-michigan-markets/7639840001/ However, the Detroit News definitely was no...

Re: Is Big Oil Punishing Blue Counties in Michigan?

Often, I've noticed the cheapest gas prices in Metro Detroit occur in & around Dearborn and the west side of Detroit proper. Southfield, Oak Park, Beverly Hills and Bloomfield Hills seem to be more expensive than everywhere else, and it's been that way for years. The price differential between the K...

Re: NFL Football on Toledo radio

Fostroit fits; Fostoria is one depressing shithole of a town.

I'm surprised to see they have an affiliate in Dayton; on FM no less.

They ought to have an affiliate or two in NW Ohio aside from a tiny AM in Fostoria.

Re: 2021 Ford Broncos are rolling shitboxes

Quick update on the 2023 Honda HR-V:
the "official" 0 to 60 time is 9.5 seconds.

That 10.9 second score was measured in the mountains of Washington state.

Re: Highland Park Shooter a White Rapper On IMDB

The dude looks completely wacked out of his mind.

Re: Silence > Matt Shepard?

Dickerson is terrific calling college hockey and high school football games on TV. I've seen him do both. He does a great job on the MHSAA championship telecasts. Keeping people interested in a baseball broadcast where there are numerous pauses between game action is tough work. Having dead weight c...

I like Jack Morris's on-air work, generally speaking. Far better broadcaster than Monroe, in my opinion.

Re: Silence > Matt Shepard?

Thanks for the info. Those awards were handed out by the Michigan chapter of the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences. Who the heck other than FSD / BSD was submitting entries for live game telecasts? My guess would be operations with far smaller budgets. Monroe's personality and voice a...

Re: Craig James helps Whitmer win re-election

She'll dodge or give non-answers for tough questions, I suspect. Would love to see someone ask her about the golden parachute she gave the former Health Department director, or why she won't sign a bill that grants a holiday for all state taxes on gas (despite the state having a $7B projected budget...
