Nikes aside, Oct. 3 is their first day of school? That’s six weeks after we start. It’s no wonder they have nothing better to do than drive by shootings and dealing.

No, that's just the day the Detroit schools make an official count of attending students to get state and federal education money.

It would make far more sense to have multiple days or even average over the entire year, but good sense and the Department of Education are polar opposites.
