Looking at my Apple Music monthly replay list, I’m actively trying to expand the artists and genres that I listen to. Prince and Stevie will always be in top rotation, but my jazz pallet is severely lacking even though it’s one of my favorite genres.

@TLoveSpeaksss Serious question and I’m only basing my question from indirect observations from people that I knew from the Chi, but is driving emphasized in Chicago like it is in Detroit, is it more like NYC where transit is the mode of transportation?

[Marquis @mtaylor313]

@CHEN313 😅 bruh! 🤣

[Marquis @mtaylor313]

@CHEN313 Good takes. Part of me wonders if last year’s roster would have done any better. Regarding your question, I’m making minor adjustments and relying on internal development. Whether Duren or Tobias is on the roster is up for debate.

[Marquis @mtaylor313]

@CHEN313 @JimCosta_ Exactly! This team was TERRIBLE two years ago. Made the playoffs under a new coach and GM in their first and then won a division title, top seed and a playoff series the next year. The 01-02 Pistons had a similar outcome and went to the conference finals the following year.

@SheKnowsSports Fam, I’m at the game and I’m steaming. 😡😡

[Marquis @mtaylor313]

I’m at my first ever NBA playoff game (Pistons and Cavs) and this shit is terrible!! 😡😩😭

[Marquis @mtaylor313]

@TLoveSpeaksss I was born in the “Thriller” era. But the album that I remember most from my childhood were “Bad” and “Dangerous”

Watching the Pistons TV turned me into a lifelong fan since I was a kid. It introduced me to George Blaha, Greg Kelser, Rick Mahorn, Kelly Tripucka and other Pistons legends. I’m glad a new generation of Pistons fans get to experience this access. #DetroitBasketball

Coming this fall… TV20 is the new home for the Detroit Pistons!

Pistons basketball returns to free, over‑the‑air television in Detroit and Michigan beginning in 2026‑27: https://t.co/XMGOM6hNx8

[Marquis @mtaylor313]

@SheKnowsSports Exactly! This made me love the Pistons, in particular George Blaha.

[Marquis @mtaylor313]

@astoldbyash__ 😅😂🤷🏾‍♂️

[Marquis @mtaylor313]

Last time the Pistons won a playoff series was in 2008 against the Orlando Magic. Detroit > Orlando #DetroitBasketball

[Marquis @mtaylor313]

@SheKnowsSports Fam, I feel this 😅 I barely turned on the game just to check the occasional score 🤷🏾‍♂️

[Marquis @mtaylor313]

@CoachEvans57 @TonyDaDome Thank you for posting this! Listening to both albums in real time, I always thought the Blueprint’s production had elements of Ghostface’s sound especially on tracks like “Nutmeg”.

@srchengn As a native Detroiter that has lived in other cites in Michigan outside of the Metro Detroit region, this is definitely needed as those cities often get overlooked because of Detroit. Flint, Saginaw, and Muskegon are examples where there is a rich Black community and history.

[Marquis @mtaylor313]

@SheKnowsSports Grocery prices too smh 🤦🏾‍♂️

@brandonousley Between the American Idol appearance and his 3121 perfume that was released a year later, this was a fun era for me as a growing Prince fan because he “reclaimed” his mainstream acceptance while remaining true to his fanbsse. I did a write up for his album. A gem indeed.

@reigns_era Should have been a Wrestlemania moment tbh
