Apparently if one doesn't concur with the PC view, one is "incinderary elitist", etc.  Read the article in The Weekly Standard about economic conditions n Detroit and then comment on that.  Michigan, and Detroit are economic wrecks, stadiums, casinos etc. not withstanding.  The Detroit Free Press didn't stop home deliveries except for the weekend because conditions are good.  I suspect to that economic conditions there are such that the Lions can't sell enough tickets to avoid a blackout even recognizing that it is an 0-16 team.
I go back to my  view that the MSU crowd was relatively small, at least it looked that way to me
