Ten Best Things About Detroit!!!

[Illogistix]

...and they BOO our Anthem???

1. The women can change a flat tire AND free base crack all while breast feeding their aids babies. Hey that takes TALENT!

(Oh don't be so mean you say.....FUCK YOU! I don't give a fuck - I am not your typical nice guy from Canada. Don't get me wrong - I think Detroit's 1st place ranking in AIDS babies per capita is shameful and quite hellish.)

2. Out of work, stupid as fuck, inbred Canadians can always cross the border to Detroit if they wish to find a place to fit in.

3. Racism is alive and proud!

4. There are more GUNS than LIBRARY BOOKS. Nice place to raise a kid, hey?

5. Real estate is cheap - but only if you like burned-out, run down, shit hole, crack palaces!

6. Detroit has more pimps than playgrounds....

7. ...and Hookers are still available at 1920 prices!!!

8. Car Jacking can always make a boring downtown trip fun AND exciting!

9. With-out the Tigers, Blue Jay fans would really feel bad about the 2002 season.

10. And finally because I do believe that actually living in Detroit must be the closest thing to hell on earth.


Have a good day - and don't forget to watch for stray bullets.

Now that's fucking ignorant.

Whoops, I forgot. It's Detroit.

 

[noahmintz]

You have to remember they're Americans
What else do you expect with all the pro USA bullshit flying around

[Illogistix]

Don't forget Detroit's top artistic and Cultural Exports......

Eminem and Kid Rock.

Pure class.

 

[H2Whoa]

None of the people watching the game are actually from Detroit.

Mexican and Greek towns are good though.
Giant Burrittos...hmmmm

 

[Klubmasta Will]

i missed the beginning of the game. did the fans really boo?

i hope toronto fans don't boo in return. i don't think they would but these things are unpredictable.

No you are wrong. The Palace in Auburn Hills does accept the bartering of crack and food stamps for admission....

you know, i never expect much from americans, but in light of the fact that they just killed four of our soldiers in an 'accident', you'd think they would show a tiny bit of respect.

i guess that would be too much to ask.

1) Juan Atkins
2) Derrick May
3) Kevin Saunderson

detroit fans (lions, tigers, red wings, pistons) are usually pretty classy. they also get pretty crazy which makes for some great rivalries.

this sounds like an isolated incident.

Exactly Ross, I was going to add "especially in light of them accidentally killing Canadian soldiers".

I WISH the raptors had fucking walked off the court.

It's pig-ignorance like that that drives me insane.

 

[Hal-9000]

The fans in Vancouver responded in kind last night.

 

[cdp]

Who won the the game?

it's not fair at all to say "they" killed the canadian soldiers. it was an accident caused by a handful of people. and if you want to fault them for the current u.s. government's foreign policies, you should know that detroit is part of the area that voted for the democrats, so you certainly can't blame them for george bush jr's policies.

as for the raptors walking off the court, why would they? they're all americans.

WHATever.

It only needs to happen ONCE to piss people off.

I only need to make ONE racist comment to be deemed racist, and i don't think an argument like *oh but officer, it's an isolated incident* will hold up.

They booed. Fuck 'Em.

 

[Klubmasta Will]

^^^ fuck who? the basketball fans that attended that one game or the whole city?

if toronto boos in return, it would be disgraceful. i hope toronto fans are classy enough to rise above such pettiness.

also, if the fans booed the american national anthem, they'd be pissing off their own players. they would also make it difficult for toronto to attract talent in the future if the big american stations decided not to show future games played in toronto (nbc would never risk airing a sports game where the fans might boo the u.s.a.)

DetRIOT was a vibrant town in the 60s and 70s... once the civil riots kicked in, all the money (aka white ppl) moved out and into the 'conventional' subs. This is a big problem for many eastern American cities. ~ ppl moving out of authentic areas and into pre-conditioned living in the subz... "We have such a beautiful mall and a backyard!"

Similar to the point Mike Moore tried to capture in 'Roger and Me' ~ altho i think he was focusing on the changing economy from (authentic) industry to an (fabricated) information one...

But that’s why i like TO so much. Lots of commercialism and ppl actually living in their city! Goto clevleand, buffalo, rochester, detroit and even chicago to some extent, and you will not find the community TO has

 

[UU7]

^^^ yup .. people who had $ moved.
I lived across the river for awhile. It was fun to visit at times. Great lakes crossing (huge mall) etc. I'd never venture there at night though.

take your lawyer hat off for a freaking minute, will ya will?

I didn't mean it in the LITERAL sense and you know that.

For fuck's sakes CANADIAN fans have been looked down upon as ignorant hockey jerks in the world of basketball every time something happens to the raps. Don't just look at it from the other side of the border, or from the perspective of NBC.


Their fans booed. I choose to say *fuck em*.

 

[Klubmasta Will]

i know. but if toronto fans respond with a bunch of "detroit sucks" and/or other anti-american nonsense (like stuff in this thread for example), that would be stooping to their level.

toronto fans have a chance to show everyone how classy we really are ... i think SPORTSCASTERS should be encouraging fans to give an extra loud ovation to the u.s. national anthem at the next toronto game.

but that's just me.
