DARE I SAY UPSET!!




Full Article HERE


I love how this game is turning in to a story of "Detroit needs this, the State of Michigan needs this" as said by Magic Johnson. It's become more than just a basketball game, but isn't that how classic runs in the tournament are made. Not to put any pressure outside of winning this game on these kids but I mean really think about it. The Motor city in it's worst shape ever, the car industry gone awry looking for help from the Obama administration just earlier this week. A state that has seen the highest unemployment rate in the nation in the last few years wants something, needs something to distract them from the financial turmoil that has strained a nation. This is how it becomes bigger than just a game, it becomes 40 minutes of hope, 40 minutes of distraction from whatever it is that's going wrong. It has become Spartan basketball at it's finest, an instant classic if they win. Dare I say upset. LET'S GO STATE!!!
