Pistons fan from Italy here. I follow this team since 1997, which is when I started getting into basketball. I want to say that it was great to read Vladan and Martin blogging about their Detroit trip. It’s great to see they had such a great time. I want to thank them for sharing with us their experience. Your passion and enthusiasm is so contagious!

Natalie, since you asked, here goes the 411 on the General of the Pistons Foreign Legion (Yes Nat, I accept!):

I’m Colombian (born and raised) but I’ve been in the US for grad school. I’ve been a Pistons fan since 1987, right in the thick of the Bad Boys Era. I’ve always been a fan of Joe D, the Microwave, and of course Big Bill and Buddha (always LOVED the Fu-Manchu!) I endured the teal uniforms and the horse logo… and in 2004 I partied like it was 1989 all over again!

Glad to see that Vladan and Martin, two illustrious members of the Foreign Legion, got so much love! That’s a dream I’d still like to fulfill while I’m the States… go to a game at the Palace!

Just thought I’d let everyone know that Vladan and Martin got some love from ESPN’s Henry Abbott,

I’ll reiterate what I said earlier don’t play d, don’t want ya in the D.

Amare is sucking in a system that isn’t up and down in Phoenix, why would he come here and break out? And there he has Steve Nash passing and Shaq helping clear out the block. He has no defensive skills. If you’re a fan of his that’s fine, I can admire him from afar, but no way do I want him and his premadonna attitude here. I’m hearing Him for Lamarcus Aldridge and Raef Lafrentz as a possibility.

But I will say if Aldridge does get traded, which I doubt, and it is not to the d. That is it for Joe Dumars in my eyes. That would cement my belief that he was successful because he knew the players coming in. But now that he’s been doing it for awhile, he has no idea how to spot talent in established players

I know this is a little bit off topic, but it seems as though Amare Stoudemire is available and I think he is just what the doctor ordered for the Pistons…. Make it happen JOE!! http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/columns/story?columnist=stein_marc&page=tradetalk-090205
