I also wonder how I got this far in life. Growing up, I never knew what I wanted to do. I was not a terribly good student or a very vivacious, outgoing person. I was just kind of a backward kid. I grew up in various little towns and ended up in Oakland, C...

Without question, Mayor Kilpatrick and Oakland County Executive Patterson personify the tremendous opportunities and challenges this region faces in the areas of economic development, regionalism and our ongoing struggles with race relations. We look forw...

Why can`t DFW compete like San Francisco does with Oakland, like Miami does with Fort Lauderdale, and like Chicago O`Hare does with Midway?
John Ensign
We knew we had to go through Oakland to win the championship, and they knew they had to go through Kansas City. That made it a very bitter rivalry.

The Oakland County prosecutors have never been shy about charging people, ... If they have reached a credible conclusion, they would have done something about it.
Barry Burns
The Oakland clubhouse is a wonderful place. A lot of these guys feel like rejects. They were rejects and they feel - they can tell you how baseball screwed up.
Michael Lewis
My brother, Ron, had a little time with him at Oakland last year and was very impressed with him. He was very helpful to his teammates, as Ray King and Steve Kline were to me as I came up.

It`s a tough time in the state, but I was pretty confident that everyone (public universities) would share the pain equally, ... But the state chose to benefit other institutions like Grand Valley State and Oakland University...as they say, we sank, they ...

If you`re sitting in a bar in Oakland County and you need to get someplace your best bet is going to be calling a cab that typically serves that area.

I think it`s going to be a testament how we`re going to communicate with each other and understand how the offensive protection will go. They (Oakland) do a little 3-4 (defensive formation - three down linemen, four linebackers) and a little 4-3, so it`ll...

I am very proud with my association with the Oakland Raiders, ... I am very thankful to Mr. (Al) Davis (team owner) for giving me that opportunity to play in 1999.

Every day`s pretty big from here on out. It`s unfortunate Oakland won tonight and we lose, but it probably won`t be the last time that happens.
Adam Kennedy
A lot of people thought I didn`t like St. Louis. I loved it. Don`t get me wrong. I loved Oakland. But the year I had in St. Louis - with the fans, the city and the baseball atmosphere - was so much fun. What could be better than that? It`s a great team mo...

[The employees who toured with the Dead will feel the pinch, as well.] There`s crew and there`s security guards, and the janitors at the Oakland Coliseum or whatever, ... They`re going to have a little less work.

[OAKLAND: Top starters Rich Harden and Barry Zito will get an extra day of rest next week. Dan Haren will pitch Tuesday at Detroit and Kirk Saarloos on Wednesday. ... DH-1B Scott Hatteberg has a strained right stomach muscle, though he played Saturday. Ma...
Armstrong Williams
[His spring performance bears him out. Dye was one of Oakland`s most impressive hitters during camp, driving the ball with his old authority.] He`s raking, ... He`s got that confident look in his eye again.
