View from Detroit
I was at the Thanksgiving Massacre and wanted to share my first Titans experience here. It was easily one of the better days of my life so far. It's really something to see your favorite team live. And that Detroit crowd is something else. Some of the most depressing people you will ever be around. Usually when you go to a sporting event there is some sort of buzz around the arena and at Ford Field there was none. It seemed as though the people were there because they had to be. And as soon as things started to go south they were heading for the exits. So really about the first minute and a half lol. There were also a TON of Titans jerseys in the crowd. When they were introduced they were semi cheered. No boos at all really. And they werent all just VY jerseys and old McNair jerseys. Haynesworth was represented very well, Cortland, the Boom King, i even saw a Kevin Mawae jersey. Of course for some dumb reason 2 Peyton Manning jerseys reared there ugly heads...i dont understand that at all. Also during the game i was talking to some detroit fans behind me for most of the game about where Detroit is going this next offseason and we were throwing names back and forth about who might take over as GM. Out of the blue one of the guy taps me on the shoulder and says "Tell me about Floyd Reese." Personally with all the draft picks detroit has right now he would be a good fit to get the franchise turned around. He's had the job in this league before and i know he'd bring in a good head coach also. But i'm going to go before i start to ramble. The game itself was amazing, i loved seeing Tennessee run up a score like that and seeing Vince Young play was pretty cool, even if it was in limited minutes.

I have never understood the whole "wear another team's jersey to a game between two other teams" thing.
That happens even at LP Field.
At the Jet game, we saw a Steeler jersey, Viking jersey, Ravens jersey and Colt jersey.
We also saw Packer jerseys that were not Favre jerseys.
I don’t think I would wear a Titan jersey to go to a game between two other teams. I just don’t get it.

Thats how I spot the dummies at football games. The ones wearing shit like that.
Also, the ones drinking Canadian beer like their watching the preds play.

It ought to be a crime to drink Canadian beer.
I mean, I can understand wanting to drink German or even French or Belgian beer. Those countries have some very, very nice brews, particularly if you get into the regionality of the brewing styles. But Canadian beer? That stuff tastes like the piss they brew here, only it’s more expensive!

Are you serious?
Canadian beer is great. And it is far, far superior to the piss they brew in America.

I don't know if it's great
But it certainly does have a great deal of alcohol in it.

detroit game
hey Shainoc i was the titans fan sitting right next to you, the reason i know is that i remember hearing someone saying tell me about floyd reese, furthermore i am excited to see that everyone that can play is playing, nick harper’s health is key becuase he cannot go down again becausse it will affect both our defense and our return game, also two games i cannot wait for is the steelers game and a possible rematch with the jets, nck harper is good at cutting off the short routes and the jets will need a new game plan
