No offense intended, but realistically that's the likely outcome.

No offense intended, but that is not realistically the likely outcome. Detroit has seen professional championships for the Pistons and Red Wings in the last decade and there has been no looting, nor have there been any wildfires. We've hosted the super bowl and the final four, and everyone has played nice. The tigers went to the world series in 2006 and there was no rioting either when the team won the ALCS, or lost the series. There are plenty of reasons to bag on the city - the behavior of its fan bases is not one of them.
