Goes to show you, it doesn't matter how you get to the show. It is how you perform when you get there.

What I find interesting is Detroit is prominantly featured in 3 of the 4 major US sports. And in the 4th they are a complete joke.

And with that being said, remember they also won the WNBA championship this year which inspired one gleeful ESPN non-reporter to call them "other than the Pistons they are the pride and joy of Detroit." Tossing aside the Red Wings.
