I can appreciate individual players --- Megatron, Barry Sanders, etc. I just can't get into why people throw their energies into a team that will find a way to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory and break your heart. It's like chicks who go for abusive assholes.

So if the Pistons had a long streak of losing, you'd abandon ship? Sounds like a front-running bitch to me. The Tigers were the same brand of shit-tier for a long time, and they turned it around.

I've stuck with the team because of the law of large numbers. Will I ever see the fruits of my patience, specifically, a Super Bowl? I don't know, but I can't just start rooting for another team. As a big Pistons fan, I imagine you'd know how it works.

I never got on board the ship to abandon it. And I don't have another NFL team I like. The Lions turned me off pro football altogether.

The older fans in my family have some sort of fond childhood memory of the victorious Lions -- that I get. I just don't, and neither do most people under the age of 60. There's a "long time" and then there's a "lifetime". Life's too short.

But there are some of us who'll bitch as we go.

And many mocked me.
