Sports fans in Michigan who are expecting a return to normal in the months ahead from a coronavirus shutdown received some disappointing news Tuesday from Gov. Gretchen Whitmer.

“Life’s going to be different,” Whitmer said, referring to the state’s eventual emergence from her virus-response order. “We’re not going to be filling stadiums in the fall.”

That appeared to be bad news for fans of the NFL’s Detroit Lions, as well as college football teams in the state, such as the Michigan Wolverines and Michigan State Spartans.

Whitmer’s remarks came during an interview on Detroit radio station WKQI-FM, according to the Detroit Free Press.

This is ridiculous for a disease that has a .00001% death rate for those not in a nursing home. Has she allowed malaria drug yet?

I left Michigan during the reign of Jenny Grandstand. She literally blew me away with her pathetic governance.

When I saw Whitmer take the stage I worried that she’d be the next Granholm.

Boy was I wrong. She’s ten times worse. Easily the worst Governor in Michigan and possibly in the history of America.

Michigan Voters elected this evil, vile woman and now they have to live with her crap. I say too damn bad to Michigan. You get the government you deserve. You voted for her, so stop whining and live with it.

100,000+ at The Big House, that’s going to be hard to make up for those local businesses in Ann Arbor.

It never occurs to jerks like you that there are thousands and thousands if not millions of good conservative people in these Marxist states who did NOT vote for the tyrants who rule them now. 7 wolves and 2 sheep voting on what’s for dinner.

It really wouldn’t matter to me personally as I pay little/no attention to that stuff anyway, but I hate the idea of a governor thinking they are the king. This one particularly needs to be taken down a notch.
