My two favourite street guys were killed by a hit and run driver early Saturday morning in Detroit. I have known Michael and James for over 20 years. Michael was a veteran who lost his feet and was in a wheelchair. James was always outside a sporting event shouting eat em up Tigers or lets go Red Wings with an oversized foam hand. They were two of the sweetest human beings you would ever want to know. I will miss them.

Aww man that sucks, sorry Skip :( I remember both of those guys. James was there for all three games I went to(pretty sure he is who I am thinking of. I thought he always sang "Here We Go Red Wings"), always a smile on his face. I think I only saw Mike at the game we went to. Hopefully they find the person responsible. :x

Thanks, Jeff. It was nice to see him and to hear his voice again.
