Once Were Warriors was literally a stunning film and was centered about Beth, Jake's wife (Rena Owen) as she tries to deal with her violent husband.

He explained that anyway if there had been Maoris after him, he'd "be dead meat by now." A statement that perhaps accentuates the veracity of the source material. Recently the writer of both of these films, Alan Duff, explained on ABC radio that he wasn't a pariah with the Maori community in New Zealand as had been claimed by some in the media. I suppose that laughter can sometimes be a healing force. I remember some Maori friends telling me that on the contrary, they laughed during Warriors because the film was so much like home in New Zealand.

I remember two separate women weeping, slumped in their cinema seats for minutes, after the conclusion of the harrowing Once Were Warriors a movie that depicted the terror of domestic violence. I doubt any of us will live long enough for the Lions to be good, but hey, three out of four isn’t bad.It's impossible to consider What Becomes Of The Broken Hearted? without remembering, its predecessor Once Were Warriors. The Tigers, Pistons and Red Wings are all rebuilding the right way with young talent and smart management, so it shouldn’t be long before one of them breaks through and wins a title. Hockey is also the sport that flip-flops most quickly, so a team can go from cellar to title easier than in the NBA. I won’t pretend to know anything about hockey, but from what I’ve read, the Wings have a ton of young talent with plenty more on the way. The Wings are being led by Steve Yzerman, who by all accounts is one of the sharpest minds in the game and like Troy Weaver, a master of talent evaluation. The Red Wings, like the Pistons, were once the most dominant team in their sport but then had a long stretch of mediocrity. The Detroit Red Wings will be the next Detroit team to win a title I haven’t been this optimistic about the direction of the Pistons in a long time and think their restoration is not far off.

The Pistons will have a big advantage next offseason as one of the only teams with cap space, and finally have a GM in Troy Weaver who seems to know what he is doing. I really love Detroit’s bench and think they will outperform expectations this season as well. They finally have a potential superstar to build around in Cade Cunningham, and have nice young talent in Killian Hayes, Saddiq Bey, Isaiah Stewart and Saben Lee. I hate to put my Detroit Pistons second on this list, but I think they are still a few seasons away from being serious contenders. They probably exceeded expectations this season, but will eventually have to overcome the White Sox, who have a ton of great young players. The Detroit Tigers have some high-ceiling young talent and are probably a year or two away from being contenders in their division. The Lions have been a train wreck for most of my life and there is really no sign of that changing anytime soon. Some fans seem to like Dan Campbell, but don’t be surprised if he is out of there before the Lions are good. If they didn’t win a single game this season I don’t think anyone would be surprised. The Lions are currently 0-5 and might have the worst collection of talent in the entire NFL. Least likely to win a title: Detroit Lions I don’t think a title is imminent for any of them, but things are turning around and more banners could be on the way in the near future. There was a time when titles were a regularity in Detroit, as the Pistons, and Red Wings had stretches of domination over their respective leagues and the Tigers made two World Series.
