I couldn't believe it when he missed the Red Wings question. I was screaming "C" at the TV. I guess he couldn't figure out that Detroit is (or was) associated with automaking.

I'm not even a hockey fan and I recognize their logo. I see it on the TV sports report almost every day-and my brother is a Red Wings fan.
