highlights of the article:
-foote wearing michigan strength and conditioning tshirt to the interview
- talking about helping the detroit community
etc etc
i really like all the positive PR foote is bringing. as a native, he's going to be great for the community. the detriot lions doing well could do alot for the whole city (see new orleans).
To get a guy that actually wants to be in Detroit is a great thing, plus he'll be closer to support his wolverines too, I think this is the begining of a new era hopefully. Plus, I already purchased my Lions Foote jersey today, I'm ready for football season!
I wish I had the cash to get a jersey whenever I wanted. Anyways I'm stoked that the Lions will actually have a good linebacker corp.
The linebacker corp will now be the strength of the team with Sims, Foote, and Peterson. I would say top 5 in the league for sure.
anyone know?
He was dissatisfied with being a two down player so he asked to be released.
