Best Teams in Detroit History

The Free Press lists the best sports teams in Detroit history. I don't think you can quibble with #1, the 1968 Tigers. Or #2, the 1997 Detroit Red Wings. But I'd have the 1984 Tigers up there. With all of the despair as murder capital of the world and the arsons, that team was magical and led wire-to-wire.

There are some other rankings on there, too, to celebrate Detroit's 313th birthday. And more I'd disagree with. Kwame Kilpatrick as Detroit's worst mayor? Probably. But where's Coleman Young?

And this is a cool feature, showing the city's changing landscape.
