This may be the third or fourth time Jimmy Fallon has been in this section of Model D. He talked with Michael Cera about Slows, he talked with Michael Moore about how much he loved his time here in Detroit, he even tweeted about riding a bicycle through downtown Detroit and loving it. Now, he's talking Detroit up to potential second round pick for the Detroit Lions Ndamukong Suh. We should try to get him to emcee one of our Speaker Series. Would you like to see that?
Excerpt from the
Detroit Free Press:
Not that Ndamukong Suh will have any say in the decision, but NBC funnyman Jimmy Fallon is all for him going to the Lions.
"Weatherwise, I'd love to go to Tampa," Fallon told Suh, Friday night. "St. Louis is a really fun place.
"But Detroit is awesome. Detroit is so cool. I love Detroit. We had Matthew Stafford on our show last time ... and I'm sure he's having a great time. He's a great dude."
Well, that's a whole lot better than Detroit usually fares on the late-night talk shows, isn't it?
And Suh made a good guest, too, soft-spoken, well-spoken and smart. He said he had no inside info on who will draft him. (Martin Mayhew will love that.)
