Thank God we live on the other side of the state. No blackout for us! Just a lot of cursing and screaming and prayers for death, and then, at the end, hysterics.
I'm pretty sure her real name is Ameila, but she goes by "Crow", lives in suburban Indianapolis, paints her fingernails black and was unable to get into New Moon despite a seven hour wait in line.
Right now, in hell, some recently deceased Detroiter is being tormented by some dreadful satanic beast and thinking to himself:
"Geez, I think I got ripped off. Selling my soul seemed like good idea, but for a November win over the Browns? Boy was that short sighted. I shoulda held out for at least an 8-8 season. Ah well. Only 100000000000060 more years of this to go."
@Juancho: Having lived in both cities, I can vouch for the fact it's worse in Cleveland. Detroit, at least, has had victory parades for teams shown on color televisions.
Detroiters, I've found, have a sense of humor about the Lions, whereas Browns fans have little to none about the Browns.
@cromartie: very true. I'm dating a Detroit girl, and there was bemused resignation when talking about the Tigers' collapse this September with her dad and brother.
@sturg1dj: Oh no, not the "battered Detroit uplifted by its sports team" narrative again. I wouldn't mind hearing it all the time if it weren't completely untrue...
@CumaeanSibyl: how dare you mock that narrative! Didn't you notice the spike in the Detroit housing market when MSU made it to the final four and when the Red Wings made the finals and during the first 6 months of the baseball season?
Oh, I'm sorry buddy, is this dome too big for you? Why don't you ask your wife what she needs, pal? Oh, I'm sorry, is she used to something smaller and you don't think she can handle it? I tell you what, buddy, how about I take your wife into the silverdome and show her what it's like to be deep inside a really big dome? #pontiacsilverdome
