La la la la we can't hear you

More reports out of Detroit of people who want to keep Tiger Stadium alive for baseball, but are getting turned down. The latest: a mortgage banker named Harry Glans who would like to reduce the stadium to its original dimensions (about 12-15,000 seats) and rent it out to travel youth teams. Writes Detroit News columnist Neal Rubin: "[Glans] picked up the phone and called the mayor's office. Twice. In a shocking development, no one called back." No one at Detroit's economic development agency returned Rubin's phone calls either - if anyone else wants to try, knock yourselves out.
