I just arrived in Detroit (Birmingham) tonight. I will take part in various filming sessions tomorrow for a very special chess documentary. As I came back from dinner tonight, the Dallas Mavericks NBA team just checked in to the same hotel. They will be playing against the Detroit Pistons tomorrow night. All I can say is these guys are TALL 🙂 and they were very nice.
Chess Daily News from Susan Polgar
They’re tall…that’s why they’re professional basketball players!
😉
Did you talk to any of them or meet any of them? I wonder if any of them play chess
What a nice photo! …it may actually trick someone that Detroit is a nice city.
There is an unspoken understanding that national sports teams do not want people to reveal which hotel the team is staying in.
Notice the name of the hotel was omitted 😉
I used to live at 9 Mile road, where 8 Mile road starts the city proper.
This photo was taken from Canada (I believe). My buddies and I used to drive across to Canada to watch the Windsor ballet.

I can only reveal after I check out 🙂 This is now becoming a security issue thanks to the USCF nonsense.
Best wishes,
