Beat the Heat, get another step closer to repeat
Carlos Arroyo has noticed it and appreciates it. So have Antonio McDyess and Horace Jenkins. They are among a handful of Pistons without an NBA championship ring, and they'd certainly like to get one, of course. More important, they know the guys with rings want another one.

DAN LE BATARD's Column
Detroit is the real pit of the universe
It has been voted America's worst city for sleeping and dating. It is pocked with bad roads, abandoned buildings and the Detroit Lions. It is responsible for foisting upon us Ted Nugent, Tom Selleck and John Salley. It is dark and dirty and cold and sad and dangerous. Other than that, and the murders, Detroit is swell.

Miami is all sunburns and alligators
Oh, Danny Boy, the hype, the hype is calling you. You're not actually drinking that Kool-Aid, are you? The red, gooey stuff that says your Miami Heat, barely a playoff team last year, is now suddenly championship material? Hey. Dan. I know it's nice to live by the ocean, but don't swallow the seawater. It makes you delirious.
