Damn Michigan! Thats where I got bit on my foot by an unknown spider while sleeping and made my foot swell up like an orange, thus causing my fear of all spiders.
 
The wandering spider in the photo looks sick. Wandering spiders are usually more heavily built than the one in the photo because they hunt and ambush prey. The spider in your photo is more slender, in line with a spider that would live in a web. If you look closely the back two pairs of legs are way too long on your spider. I'd say it's a harmless nursery web weaver.
 
Only 1 way to find out if it's deadly. Get a case of beer... invite obnoxious neighbor over. Proceed to drink quite a bit. Bet neighbor that he's afraid of a spider...
you see where I'm going with this...
 
It looks like the "wolf" spiders that we have here in Florida. Was told they were known as wolf spiders, but think it was a misnomer since seen photos of wolf spiders on the net and did not look like them.

Here is a brief decription of them:
Counting leg legth they are slighty smaller than an adult male's hand. The carry their egg sacks under neath their belly until they ready to attach it to a wall (or celing). The egg sacks look like a very white oyster cracker and, when attached to a surface, it is done on its rim. They do not carry their offspring with them nor do they stay to protect their eggsack. The carry the sack for a bit...find a spot...place it and move on.

Coloring is solid dark brown, no varying pattern of color.

They tend to live near forested areas and/or near water locations and mainly feed on palmeto bugs (i.e. cockroaches). They can squash up in cracks and coners really well when they want to hide......but when they want to move they can haul arse or a good meter or two in less than a second.

They can get large enough to actually hear them walking over an open magazine or newspaper (sound made from a magazine I had on floor helped me find one I was hunting in my room).
