Meandering through the maize (and blue): Check your tickets, Tigers lose a thriller and prepping against the run

By Michael Rothstein

Looking for tickets Saturday for Michigan-Iowa?

Be careful, writes Mike Hlas of the Cedar Rapids Gazette. Apparently tickets for Iowa's game last Saturday against Arkansas State look similar to the ones this Saturday for Michigan. In 2006, Hlas reports, a lot of people bought wrong tickets for the Ohio State-Iowa night game. So if you'll be in Iowa City on Saturday, beware.

And, as you click to see the other links, a quick breaking update: Braylon Edwards has reportedly been traded to the New York Jets.

    Yeah, theo, braylon was a class act in Cleveland. He was one of the players whining about mangini enforcing fines to players association. Meaning he probably would have been a whiner or informant against rodriguez had he been here
