Championship City

For as long as I can remember, I've loved Detroit sports.  That's why this spring is starting to feel special.

The Pistons own the closest spot to my heart.  And during the last week they finally hit their stride against the Sixers.  Next up, the Orlando Magic in Round Two of the NBA Playoffs.  And if Sheed can take care of Dwight Howard we may see the Celitcs for the Eastern Conference Championship.  Just like the eighties:)  Can't wait for some revived visions of The Bad Boys vs. Larry Bird.

The Red Wings are cruising.  After cleaning up their sweep of the Colorado Halves Avs, a matchup with the Pittsburgh Penguins in the Stanley Cup Finals becomes more of a possibility.  And since Leah's a die hard Pittsburgh fan, that will add some flavor to our dinner discussions:)

The Tigers just swept the Yankees.  They're finally playing like the Playoff team that most of us thought they'd be.  They're scoring a ton of runs.  And if we can pick up a pitcher or two before the trade deadline I feel real good about our chances.

There's just one more Detroit team that I love, but since this post is about winning, victory, and potential championships, we'll keep them out of this post:)

It's raining jump-shots in Hockeytown where the Tigers are starting to roar!

I am with you on the Pistons - and the Tigers - BUT the PENS will smash the Wings in 5 games.

I am sure LEAH will have Black and Gold all over the house.

GO PENS!
