Viewer comments supporting our station promotion of the free water safety programs at the Huron-Clinton Metroparks were summed up by Lynn Blasey:
“Yes, I love that park!”
But, not surprisingly, the overwhelming community comments we received were about our TV-20 Detroit becoming the new home of Detroit Pistons basketball. Here’s a sampling:

“My great appreciation and gratitude for bringing the Pistons back to local TV where everyone in Metro Detroit can watch & rally for our local team.”

“I think that’s awesome. If only all our teams would do that.”
