They say families, as you age, only get together at weddings and funerals. Not true Wednesday night at the Fisher Theatre. Nobody died. Nobody said, "I do." But a whole lot of family was there.

From the Detroit Free Press: Musical shows how Motown changed the world

They say families, as you age, only get together at weddings and funerals. Not true Wednesday night at the Fisher Theatre. Nobody died. Nobody said, "I do." But a whole lot of family was there.


Smokey Robinson. Stevie Wonder. Mary Wilson from the Supremes. Martha Reeves. Duke Fakir. The producers. The songwriters. And, for the first time on a musical stage in a long time in this city, the papa bear of the Motown family, Berry Gordy Jr.

From the Detroit Free Press: Michigan State owns its rival — and its rivalry

EAST LANSING – Devin Gardner was splayed on his back, as stiff as a scarecrow knocked off its stick. Behind him, the Michigan State Spartans were celebrating in the end zone with another of his ill-advised passes, this one taken back for a touchdown and an 18-point lead.


It might as well have been 1800.


All Green. The best team in the state is clearly the best team in the state, and it's no shock that eighth-ranked MSU continued its dominance in this rivalry Saturday afternoon, winning, 35-11.

From the Detroit Free Press: SHOCKTOBER

Tigers swept by Orioles


SHOCKTOBER


mitch albom: Winter comes early again and who knows what this team will look like next year


Winter began to creep into the city just after six o'clock Sunday night, courtesy of a man named Nelson Cruz - or, as he is known around here, Death. Cruz, the Baltimore Orioles' designated killer, swatted a David Price pitch in the sixth inning of a scoreless game and lifted it toward rightfield. It appeared, at first, to be a harmless foul.

Many thanks to Marlene Cohen and the Green Brook Book Club for welcoming me and #thefirstphonecallfromheaven. I got to have my cake and eat it, too.
