I have argued that Gores can't have the passion for this franchise that true fans have if he's not In the area to live and breathe the Pistons...not only is he not in the area, he's about as far away as he can be.
So I wonder what the answers are, and just how telling they may be.
Davidson owned the Tampa Lightning at one time, does that mean he didn't care about the team because he didn't live there, or go to all the games? Where the owner lives, or how many games they go to has no relevance to winning a championship.
Gores isn't some 70 year old man that's retired that can go to all the game. Hes got a business to run.
