Despite the lobbying which many have done for the change, despite the fact that every other major league team with a baseball game scheduled for tomorrow has done it, despite the fact the team owner Mike Ilitch is Catholic, the Detroit Tigers will not reschedule their Good Friday Opening Day game until after 3 O'clock as a courtesy to their fans. I'm not even asking that it be done out for respect for the suffering and death of Christ, though that ought to be reason enough in a, yes it is, my friends, Judeo-Christian nation. But as a gesture towards baseball fans who are Christian, why not do it? They support you, Mr. Ilitch. Why can't you throw them a bone?
Shame on you, sir. Shame on you.

Don't forget that family also owns one of the biggest casinos in Detroit -- Motor City Casino! They bought it from MGM/Mirage Resorts.
Relative to its wealth and power any sense of altruism that family has is minor! And what charitable good they do is all in the name of publicity or sustaining ticket sales.
