It was quite a headline type news weekend in the Metro Detroit area, and one  would think with all of the economic problems that my hometown area is facing that I would be a bit more concerned this morning with hard core issues facing people in my area.

My priorities are screwed up today.  (I'm human, I'm sure you've all experienced this also at one time or another.)

Instead of delving deeper into the bad asset sale of GM and the bankruptcy courts approval of those assets, or worrying about the police chief of Detroit being fired without a reason for his sacking being disclosed I am more upset and dumbfounded by this:

Brandon Inge didn't make the All Star team.

It's a travesty.  An injustice.  An outrage! This man is a human highlight film at third base.

We can make this right.  

There are 5 ball players that are on the final ballot.  If you go to MLB.com you can vote for Brandon to make the trip to St. Louis.  I've already voted, many many times.  (Yes, you can vote more than once!)

Hopefully since I've gotten this out of my system, for this morning at least, I'll be able to get back to work on concentrate on other things except the injustice of the All Star voting system!

Congratulations to Justin Verlander, Edwin Jackson and Curtis Granderson who have been chosen to represent the Detroit Tigers at  this great American classic!
