That's pretty strange homer-ism as when I lived there everyone was pretty quiet about Detroit sports in general, save the Michigan vs. Michigan St flags that were freely flying on every passenger window during the winter. They had the Red Wings, and at the time both Mich & MSU had solid programs. The pistons were in a classless free fall following the Bulls tenure at the top. I've been back a few times & like how they've moved the sports/convention center at one central location connected mostly by rail; too bad the city in general is in dire straights.
