Oh trust me, some of us darkies fucking love the Red Wings in Detroit. You see a decent number of black and latino fans and supporters of the Wings around. While Detroit is Hockeytown, I have never seen a city go more insane for a team than when the Tigers made their World Series run. I will say this, if the Lions could ever put together a winner I think Detroit would explode with joy. They really are like the prodigal son of Detroit sports.
Gotta say it's the Red Wings, Hocketown after all. Tigers come in second.
Michigan football has taken a big hit the last couple seasons, with the fire Lloyd Carr era and this new team...it's going to be a while before most people care again
The Lions are getting serious hate these days, and until they can pull of 8-8 I don't see it getting much better. Every year fans get up thinking this season will be different, and it never is.
I'll root for the Shock over the Lions right now...and I hate the WNBA. Things need to change on that team
