ESPN rubs salt into the wounds of Detroit sports fans

The Detroit Pistons unceremoniously bowed out of the NBA playoffs on Monday night, losing 127-104 to the Milwaukee Bucks to cap another 4-game sweep.

That keeps Detroit major professional sports' streak of 1,101 consecutive days without a playoff win intact. And unfortunately, ESPN noticed.

The Worldwide Leader sent out a tweet late Monday night, following the Pistons' loss, highlighting the woes of Detroit sports. And it's been retweeted more than 2,400 times and liked more than 9,600 times as of noon today.

This drew a number of reactions from Detroit sports fans far and wide, and even drew the attention of the Tigers and Red Wings' Twitter accounts.
