Santa Claus has come and gone for 2016 and the world will soon be making their resolutions for the new year. With this holiday season drawing to a close, we look ahead to 2017 with a wishlist item for each of our beloved Detroit sports teams.

As we all learned from Disney’s Aladdin, there are three rules when it comes to wishes: can’t kill anybody, can’t make anybody fall in love with anybody else and can’t bring people back from the dead (it’s not a pretty picture). Other than that, this was an open-ended exercise. For some teams, the wishlist gets something specific while the choice for some teams might be a little more abstract.

Detroit Jock City writers Zac Snyder, Matt Snyder, Matt Pelc and Colton Wesley collaborated on this project. The writer for each section is noted with the wish.

As always, we value hearing from our readers. Let us know where you think we hit the mark and where you think something else should have made the wishlist. You can find us on facebook and twitter.

Let’s get started with Michigan’s MAC schools.
