Does Telander–or the Chicago Sun Times, for that matter–really feel like there is much to gain from a hack piece like this? In employing some of the most cliched stereotypes of the city of Detroit, Telander does nothing to substantively argue his case against Detroit as a Super Bowl venue. Every one of his Detroit-demeaning references are parroted from half-wits before him–e.g., Jimmy Kimmel and those punks in Sacramento, to name a couple. He reaches for nothing but the low hanging fruit (easily picked with little effort exerted), leaving the true discussions of Detroit's merits to writers of diligence. In fact, his own view–that New Orleans should be the permanent site of the Super Bowl (which I happen to agree with)–is lost amidst the derivative vitriol. [...] […] Wow, where to begin?
