Sir Creep 7,070 Posted March 6, 2020 While we are on the topic. Joe Schmidt - Detroit Lions NFL --- NOT the rugby coach from Ireland (though I suspect both are awesome gents). Again -- it's called Made In Detroit. Now I'm wondering if there's another Berry Gordy or Robert Wagner out there in the world... SC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gcreptile 10,963 Posted March 6, 2020 Jeez, well I can still switch those names, but it's very late... did I or someone else on the committee miss a mail?

msc 18,436 Posted March 29, 2020 And with a tip of the hat to Mr Willz, the DDP front page has had an overdue update. Also, as for some reason the site autolinks to unfinished pages, you might note the start of a work on progress from the links maze at the top of the page - that being the long awaited DDP Archive... That's a long term project however. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
