On September 11, 2001, the United States of America was changed forever when a series of coordinated terrorist attacks claimed the lives of nearly 3,000 innocent people.
On Tuesday, at precisely 8:46 a.m., two Georgia firefighters honored the fallen heroes of 9/11 by hopping on the StairMaster and climbing 110 flights.
Check it out.

Though this has nothing to do with Detroit Sports, or sports in general, this is the most important thing we have posted in a long time. Our thoughts and prayers go out to the families and friends of those who died on 9/11.

Mitch Albom destroys Detroit Lions fans for lack of support on MNF
I have been watching Detroit Lions football for a long, long time. I’ve been disappointed time and time again over the years but never have I been as disappointed as I was on Monday night as I watched my favorite team lay an egg on national television.
My hope was to make it out to the game but due to my wife having a “Bunco night” with her friends (which I am fine with, she deserves it), my only option was to watch the game on my television.
While watching the game unfold, I could hear the boos from the Ford Field crowd loud and clear and I thought to myself how glad I was that I did not drop a bunch of cash on such a sorry excuse for a football team. Had I went to the game, I would have refrained from booing my team because that is not my style, but I would not have looked down on anyone who did.
Detroit News writer Mitch Albom has a much different view on the fans booing than I do, which he is entitled to.
