Talk about players just showing up for their paychecks. They're all ready planning their after season vacations. Welcome to the NFL coaching graveyard Mr.Patricia.  I just hope the Ford family will just sell this fucking team to some other city. Let new owners get a brand new franchise here. Call them the old USFL Michigan Panthers, just get rid of everything Lion!

The only way you can tolerate the Loins is to revel in their perpetual misery.  I'm 52 years old and have never seen a championship Loin...don't expect to see one before I die either.  The only way this franchise will ever be a SuperBowl team is if the Ford family doesn't own them.

Lions will never accomplish a damn thing of note as long as the Fords own the team.

When you're bad for a year, you can blame the players. When you're bad for 2-3 years, blame the coaches. Bad for 4-6 years, blame the GM and the scouts. 

But when you've had nearly 60 years of sheer incompetence like the Lions have had, you blame the owners. The Lions franchise has been gutted and rebuilt over and over and over throughout the years. They still suck in any given year, and even now when they have talent they can't do any better than hovering around .500. What is the lone constant during all this time? The Fords.

I know people want them to sell the team to someone else, but if the Fords haven't sold by now, I don't think they ever will. And I doubt they can really ever be forced out of something that they own.

Oh man what a game!  Sunday I was getting hate mail from my Lions Family on how the Cowboys were going to be the Panthers // Cam Newton is fragile // Luke gets a concussion by walking, etc... Nonetheless, we took care of home...

The Lions, I had to turn it because I was laughing so hard it hurt... Cannot believe that was real... All those fans leaving in the 3rd Quarter of the opening game on National TV said it all...  Good luck to you Lions fans I hope you have a very strong liver...
