OPENING DAY! GO TIGERS!

Alright this week's first Grounds For Divorce was a good one! We had a ton of phone calls and comments come in, basically all telling me I was wrong. Let's get into it.

So I am going to the Tigers game this weekend and I had one question. Here it is.

"WERE GOING TO THE TIGERS GAME SATURDAY..ARE WE ALLOWED TO LEAVE EARLY EVEN THOUGH WE DIDN’T BUY THE TICKETS?"

Here is a little background on what is happening. My wife's dad bought the tickets because one of his younger kids are playing the National Anthem with her school band. I say we can leave early because we are really just there to see her perform. I get that it is also an outing with her family but why do we have to stay the whole game?

I asked that question and the comments came flying in! Mostly all against me like most Grounds for Divorce's

LISTENER COMMENTS:

Ryan can stay home and I'll go in his place, summertime at A tigers game sounds awesome

you can leave whenever you'd like but you'll have to deal with the fallout with the in-laws.

It depends on the score and you have to make it someone else's idea

When I got home, I wanted until we were on a walk to ask my wife Heidi her thoughts on the Grounds for Divorce question. Here is here response, sorry she wouldn't let me film her since we were on a walk and she "looked gross."

FINAL THOUGHTS:

So here is my final thought on the whole situation. If we go to the game and hang out with them at the bar before isn't that enough? I mean especially if the game gets out of hand, why do we have to stay if it's a blowout? I think when it comes down to it, I am just not that big of a fan of going Downtown, especially during the summer and with construction as bad as it is.

I know I sound like a grumpy old man but hey! It's who I am!

Grounds for Divorce
Hey It’s Ryan, let me start off by saying…YES, I was born and raised in Wixom, Michigan although a lot of listeners like to joke that I am from Arizona. WCSX has always been my radio home, I have been at the station since I was a 23-year-old intern, co-host of Big Jim’s House, married with kids. Family and radio are what I love, but don’t get me started on golf! Like some, I have become obsessed with golf and you can hear all about that on “The Ball Washer Pod” right here on WCSX. One of my other passions is helping out the Vets. Since coming to WCSX I have been apart of raising hundreds of thousands for local vet groups. Other than that, I am a goofy guy, loving life, my family and talking to you on the radio. Ryan writes about golf, family and what happens on “Big Jim’s House.”
