Just stop it
Dear cousins downtown:Under the general heading of "no more stupid sports heds that play on people's names," see Datsyuk, P. If "Dat's it," "Dat's more like it!" and "Dats the question" were all the rage last year, what makes you think you've come up with something original this year?
Cut it out. Now and forever. Please.

Aw, cmon. What could be better than the New Yorker line (not a head, I admit) "I'm tired of seeing our tennis hopes brought home year after year on our Wood Shields"? (Wood and Shields were notable players of the day, and the whole thing is an allusion to the Roman custom of carrying wounded soldiers home on their shields.)
Better wordplay might be "Detroit shows Arizonans their walking papers."
Or maybe not.
