The line of riot police is such an old stereotype. Why not post of picture of last year's celebration when a million people peacably congregated in Detroit?
We don't get French benefits?
because u gonna lose, and ppl gonna be pissed and probably drunk too
inagoddadavida baby
Well, we don't have to do that kind of crap down here in San Antonio. The fans here (like the Spurs players) have CLASS. We just party, we don't riot. No cop-smacking, no car-burning, no looting, no killing (what the kind of a way is that to CELEBRATE?????). Just pure, unadulterated joy here. and nobody gets hurt.
I've got to admit it, that top pic is bad ass.
I am so incredibly tired of people here saying that San Antonio has class, and Detroit doesn't have class. What kind of way is WHAT to celebrate?
When the Red Wings won their Stanley Cups, there were over 1.2 million people in the streets cheering and celebrating, with no problems. When the Pistons did it in 89 and 90, and again last year.. no problems.
What is this 'no looting, no killing' crap? Last time I checked, in 2004 the city of San Antonio had 95 homicides, 677 forcible rapes, 2132 robberies, 4948 aggravated assaults, 14,720 burglaries, 60,868 larcenies, 5667 motor vehicle crimes, 7852 total crimes against persons, 81,255 total crimes against property, and 89,107 total crimes (excluding arson). 69.5 people out of every 1000 committed a crime.
You want to dig on Detroit and the fans of Detroit, so let's go to Auburn Hills, where the team plays.
1 Murder, 14 forcible rapes, 12 robberies, 47 aggravated assaults, 136 burglaries, 1091 larcenies, 77 motor vehicle thefts, and 2 arsons in 2002. I couldn't seem to find 2004 in the books.
It's apples and apples, moron. You see "Detroit" on TV and that's all you can come up with is your typical, non-original rips on the city.
You want to compare facts about where the teams play? There you go. I hate having to actually bring TRUTH into a thread, but for you to say something this stupid about my city.. it's rediculous. I have *NO* problem with the city of San Antonio, and it seems like a great place to visit.. but enough Detroit Pistons (and their fans) bashing already.

I think I just proved that stats can be altered to make ANYTHING seem ok.
For instance, that "AOL" guide that you just put up.. has HARTFORD, CT at #7, Birmingham, AL at 11 and Dayton, OH at 21.
Ever been to any of those cities? I've been to all three. If you think they're dangerous, I'm not sure what bubble you live in. I'm not going to sit here and tell you Detroit is the equivalent to heaven, but the point was he was trashing the FANS.

usatoday more your style?
"TRENTON, N.J. (AP) — Camden has been named the nation's most-dangerous city, snatching the top spot from Detroit, according to a company's annual ranking based on crime statistics."
"The rankings look at the rate for six crime categories: Murder, rape, robbery, aggravated assault, burglary and auto theft. It compares 350 cities with populations of 75,000 or more that reported crime data to the FBI. Final 2003 statistics, released by the FBI in October, were used to determine the rankings. "
Dude, that's not comparing apples to apples!
San Antonio is not Auburn Hills. Auborn Hills has 19,837 people. Basically, the whole population fits in the Palace!
Here's Detroit's 2002 stats:
Murders: 402
Rapes: 708
Robberies: 6288
Agg. Assault: 12,542
So, unless Detroit crime has gone DOWN in the last 2 years, yeah, San Antonio is better.
(I didn't want to go here, but you're the one bringing up the stats)
