yup, for a year...Portis is a power back, he gives every damn play his all...even when he doesn't get the ball, he's blocking like a damn lineman. Which is why you see Betts in his place every few plays...that sh*t tires you out. And now that Ladell is out for at least a few weeks, I guess they decided they had to have an immediate replacement. Here's hoping he finds newfound glory in DC.
TO is going to check into a mental institution soon I bet
He's got 28 million reasons not to!
Well, with Homo out, and TO crying like a baby all the time, and Pacman on the verge of a goddamn prison sentence, I'd say that they have to be pretty distracted...
Still, wouldn't you rather be with a distracted Cowboys team than the Lions (all things being equal)?
No, a thousand times, no. All things being equal means, I surmise, pay? If yes, then I'll take the Lions any day of the week, even if it's a record-settingly bad team that can't win a game. Just the thought of walking around with that ugly blue star on me...makes me want to gag.
The only reason I'd play for the Cowboys would be to throw games.
The Lions should have really dumped Millen last year so they could get into the Big Tuna lottery.
I'm not looking for a sack yet, but we need to turn this ship around!!!
Not a bad day. I didnt get to watch the game because of work but the power was in and out anyways. But 5-1 isnt bad. Jets and Miami lost, both in our division so when the Pats lose tomorrow it will be even better. Miami next week is a winnable game, Jets the week after that. Football life is good.
We were busy doing drywall and painting. About 1 hour into the game my wife flips on the Lions. I see her make a bad face and turn it back to music. That bad, huh? She said she didn't want me to know because I'd just get upset and then won't be able to enjoy the rest of the afternoon (uh, we're already sanding drywall and painting, so how good is my afternoon NOW?)
I'm already numb on the Lions. They may not win any games this year. Now I did not watch the game, but I can imagine how they must have sucked to be down by 21 point early once again.
Why would them losing ruin your afternoon? You'd think it'd be par for the course by now. Unless the entire team went down in a plane crash, I fail to see how you could get upset.
Then you must not be a real fan, *****ie.
The Lions suck and I know it. I continue to shell out $250 a year so I can watch all of their games, I continue to go to games when I can. They're my team... even when I know that they're going to lose I still have to watch, and I still get upset.
I recall a certain Redskins fan who was not very happy after week 1.
Yeah, but I had higher expectations. And hell yeah, I always fly the Skins Nation Flag high. Alls I'm saying is, when the skins are having a crappy year (which hasn't exactly been rare over the past 15 years), a loss doesn't sting as much as, say, last week's loss to the hapless Rams. It's as much about expectations...
I'm not sure if this belongs here or in the Lion's thread.
Sad all around.

Higher expectations in week 1? The Lions were the only team to go undefeated in the Preseason (I know, I know, its preaseason). This team always shows a flash of genius and then flames out--you just never know how they're going to lose.
I got a good feeling about next week, though.
