Detroit is No. 1

The Sporting News released their list of the best sporting towns in the U.S. and — no big surprise — Detroit ranked No. 1. But did you know that East Lansing ranks 84th, Kalamazoo 101st and Mt. Pleasant 108th?

    It’s nice to see Detroit get some overall recognition and be rated as #1 in a positive poll. It’s been a great ride these past fews years, dating back to the last Red Wings’ Stanley Cup. I’m hoping the Tigers will break out of this slump and get back to business- then maybe one of our teams can bring home a title this year!

    Author tries to purport San Antonio as best NBA town.

    I don’t disagree - they love their Spurs - but this is a silly article. Sacto and Portland could say the same.

    Personally, my list crosses off any arena that uses “Clap, clap, clap, clapyuhands” on the PA.
