I wasn't around for that(The Riots and the Tigers). I was 1. But I've read enough and talked to enough that people were to have an understanding of just how much it meant to the city.

I'm kind of like Micro in that I didn't have as many toys as some(Not whining here at all, I had a great childhood with a great Mom) and I grew to love the library.

Plenty of places to get in trouble when you're hanging out on Vernor and Junction. I spent many hours reading the books that the library provided.

If seeing the Pistons there helps out ONE kid, it was worth the time and effort.

It's just nice to see our new Bad Boys, Playing the Good Guys,
