What would you use to describe the city of Detroit as of their 2008? Here are some things to consider:
Detroit Lions: 0-16, the worst team in NFL history.
Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick: Look him up if you must know, but he is now the former mayor who sits warmly inside a jail cell.
The Big 3: The once booming American auto industry holding their hands out for spare change from Congress.
Crime Rate: Most dangerous city? Top city in murder and rape? Etc. etc.
Unemployment: Last I heard Detroit-Michigan topped the charts there.
Obesity: Yup. We're high up there too.
An example of an athlete from here: Plaxico Burress
College sports: Michigan football loses to Appalachian State last year, and TOLEDO this year.
Detroit Pistons: Lose Chauncey, who goes to Denver and makes them awesome; we gain AI who makes Walter Herrmann the star player.
Detroit Tigers: Hottest hyped team, didn't even make the playoffs. They did sign Miguel Cabrera, right?
Sure, there are the Red Wings but... them winning the Stanley Cup barely was noticed for more than the day of the parade...
The sad thing is, I feel like I'm forgetting things.
It's so sad, to be honest, more than anything.

The site for Wrestlemania 3.
But sadly, now it's a home to an overrated basketball team, and underwhelming baseball and lackluster football team.
Worst Football Season ever for Michigan.
