Even though Rasheed Wallace is no longer a Piston, Need4Sheed tops our list of Detroit Pistons websites and blogs because of it's creator Natalie Sitto.  She's truly a Pistons super-fan and her website shows it.  I love her custom cartoons of the players and her wallpapers. You'll find great game recaps with videos, team news and Pistons giveaways.

Pistons Forum Podshow - www.pfpodshow.com

If you're like me, sometimes you'd rather listen to content instead of reading it.  The Pistons Forum Podshow gives you some good Pistons commentary.  The site features post game podcasts by The Low, a frequent poster on PistonsForum.com.  You can listen to Live Podcast Broadcasts and call-in with your questions and Pistons commentary. 
 
Detroit Bad Boys - www.detroitbadboys.com

You can't talk about Pistons Basketball without talking about the glory years.  Detroit Bad Boys is a tribute to the great teams of the 80's in name only.  This is a great blog with an active community.  On this blog you'll find game previews and recaps and original blog features that provide great thinking on what's going on with the team.  In addition, the blog features a a Pistons Newswire that inlcudes highlights and Pistons News from Need4Sheed, PistonsNation, Mlive.com, Detroit News and a Pistons Google News feed.

Pistons Nation - www.pistonsnationblog.com

Pistons Nation is a blog that started in 2005 as a message forum but has since grown to offer great opinion and news for the ballers representing the D.  You'll find the usual game recaps and Piston opinion and commentary.  Our favorites are the features and their tributes to female fans.  Be sure to check out Pistons Nation page 2 for totally non-basketball related tributes!

Detroit Pistons Forum - www.detroitpistonsforum.com

Tried and true just like the Pistons red, white and blue, the forum (or board for those that remember dial up modems and the Commodore 64) is one of the oldest forms of what today's kids call Social media.  It's the ultimate Pistons forum with info about the Pistons, the NBA and also a little bit about Detroit's other professional sports teams. Tie up your Chuck Taylor's and go old school by posting to your favorite Pistons topic.

Trojan Girl Mary Lynn Rajskub

 Mary Lynn Rajskub


She's a former Detroit CCS student.  Before that, Mary Lynn Rajskub is a 1989 graduate of Trenton High School, home of the Trojans.

Mary Lynn is best known for her role on the Fox Drama "24".  She plays computer expert with sass, Chloe O'Brian.  Her real life pursuits might contradict her character's introverted anal tendencies because she's a painter and a stand up comedian.  I always thought that Chloe was funny in that bitchy kinda way.

From The D Bullet  Mary Lynn's MySpace page has more great videos including some home movies.
From The D Bullet  TVAddict.com interviews Mary Lynn about this season's 24.
From The D Bullet  24 airs Monday's at 9pm on Fox 2 Detroit.

Kristen Bell Shows Her D
Kristen BellYou may know her as Veronica Mars, lightning thrower Elle Bishop or even that evil Sarah Marshall.  Here's what you need to know.  Actress Kristen Bell is From The D.  Not only that, the girl that used to work at TCBY is now a Top 10 celeb!

There's no hiding her D, especially her love for Red Wings goalie Chris Osgood.
"There was actually a day in high school when I wrote on a name tag 'Mrs. Osgood' and wore it the whole day.  I really thought we were perfect for each other.  I'd love to meet him -- and probably apologize that things never worked out."  -- Kristen Bell 

Kristen, now that you're a Hero, Heart Breaker and a Martian, don't forget you'll always be a Detroiter!
