3 AnswersDetroit1 decade agoWhy do all Pittsburgh's sports teams wear black/gold?

6 AnswersDetroit1 decade agoI was threatend on Yahoo Answers!?
Couple days ago someone asked a question about the "turtle" graffiti on Detroit buildings.
I was the only person to answer the question ( you can go to resolved questions and look for the question and his response) but in short the guy says, "I hope you die".
Jeeze, who ever thought such a thing could happen. Not very friendly.
