Brady just practically threw a hail mary in the first minutes of the playoffs, and it was PERFECT, a thing of beauty really!!!

Okay, forget Rothlesberger or whatever his name is, Plummer... sorry Jake but you just don't quite measure up. Harrington... hah, he should kiss whatever football gods that even gave him the opportunity for his name to be mentioned with the others.

Tom Brady Rules!! Come home Tom, pulleeeez? We miss you man!

Well rumors were running rampant that Joey was going to be released after this season. Much to my dismay, they were unfounded. They were based on the parting remarks of the recently released Offensive Coordinator (whose name I can't seem to recall right now), 'The Detroit Lions will never be a winner with Joey Harrington as the quarterback. WO!

Are these the remarks of a disgruntled coach? (Sherm Lewis, I remembered). I haven't been reading the papers, so I'm assuming that he got canned because he took the brunt of the ineffectiveness of the Lion's offense. Fans wanted Joey's head and as par for the course around here, we got the ole' bait & switch. Having never played professional football myself, I find it hard to believe that Lewis coordinated Joey's interceptions. There are other rumors that Lewis didn't like Harrington, and apparently they were true. Was this his final parting remark to try & get someone other than M&M (Mariucci & Millen) to listen or a 'don't blame me', I'm not taking responsibility, even though it was my fault' retort?

Who knows, but I do know that every rumor has some basis in fact. C'mon, someone in the Lions organization, invite me to your private meetings. I want to KNOW what the hell is really going on over there. Pullleeeeeze?

Can you say Roethlisberger? (me either), think we could thunk him over the head when he's sleeping and force him to play here? I think he may be the next Farve, he even sounds like him.

Why does the murder capital of the world, the Motor City, DEEE-troit whose football team plays in the Black-n-Blue division ALWAYS draft pansies for quarterbacks??? Maybe we should fire whoever does our scouting. Yeah!! He's got to be the same guy that says all those 5'10" corners are really good. C'mon now, they may be good in college but we're talking about the pro's here. Three quarters of the wide receivers they were defending didn't make it to the pro's cuz they were too damn short!

From everything I have ever heard about the Ford's. They are a very nice, well-bred, well mannered, polite family, and I think they may recruit players with the same qualities. Hey that's great if you're going to invite them to dinner parties, but we're talking FOOTBALL here!! FYI to the Ford Family; The players are not a direct reflection on you or your family, the fans are paying you to pay them to WIN! I don't care if they fake a moon at the other fans... (oops, they slipped, don't fine me!) in fact I think that would be great, think Bill Laimbiere attitude.

I want to see the same looks on our players that I saw on Bettis today when he missed his first attempt at a touchdown. This team needs some damn testosterone for once. I have an idea, let Shaun Rogers pick our guys for the draft next year!

The Lions lost, but who cares... Rogers got a 6 year, good contract!!I'm going to get my jersey this week, if someone is selling them that is. Although we have a girl for a QB, we signed Rogers and Kevin Jones, just may very well be, Barry Sanders with personality and some smooth dance moves, on top of it.

Yep, look for me proudly wearing my 92 & Stefani in her 34. We're putting in a request for a move this year, so we may no longer be hanging out with our fellow buds in 140. We'll see.

I'm really excited about the future Lions. Besides the fact that Rogers and Jones are deservedly ProBowl picks, they have something we have been lacking for as long as I can remember. LIFE. I don't see either one of these guys sitting idly by; year after year, quietly wallowing in their misery ala Barry. I see two future leaders that LIKE and WANT to WIN. Win for the sake of winning. True competitors. Competitors who hold themselves to very high standards, & will expect nothing less from their teammates, even (as Arnold would say) our Guhrllie-Maaan QB, JoMO.

**Newsflash** Jake Plummer just ran it in for a touchdown. Why-oh-why didn't we get him? So, he flipped the Denver fans off, we might be pissed about that in Detroit, but we'd respect him for it - heh, anyway...

Barry might have been the best running back of all time, but we'll never really know, because he QUIT. That's the one thing I will never understand and why I can't fully respect him as the 'best' running back ever. At least Ricky Williams quit for a 'higher' pursuit... LMAO. Anyway, as I've said to my friends; How can anyone quit when they are THAT close to breaking NFL records. How can any person that is truly a competitor quit? I don't care if it's barbecuing spare ribs, if you were 10 minutes away from winning the barbecue grill-off for an unheard of 5 years in a row, could you just turn your barbecue off and say, 'Enough, I don't like the way they eat my spareribs, so I quit!'?

Back to the future though, it looks good. I just have a few wishes for next year:

• Can we PLEASE get some corners, preferably over 6' and fast?

• Cory, Cory, Cory, let him play more, throw him the damn ball once in a while!

• Although Alexander actually caught more than he dropped, I'd like to burn the #86 because everyone that's worn it should be 86'd - haHA pun intended

• Hey Swinton, when you catch the ball after a punt, RUN you chickenshit, can we all chant EDDIE, EDDIE, EDDIE.

• Mariucci, quit with the 'Bend but don't break' B.S. I'm sick of watching us BEND over on every 3rd and long the other team manages to convert, and I'm sure the guys on the team are sick of bending over too!

• I really, really want to like Teddy Lehman, or atleast one of our linebackers. I like linebackers. I haven't seen much out of him this year. Can you step it up a notch Teddie?

• More BLITZ's dammit!

• We need a really good safety/strong safety ala Mike Carrier, someone that will put the fear of the hospital emergency room into the wide receivers that dare to go up for a pass.

• And last but not least, I want us, to not only, get to the playoffs, but win them.

• Oh yea, and playing in the SuperBowl at home would be awesome. I know, I know WDFN, pass me the pudding.

If there is any doubt left out there as to the fact that our QB is really a girl, watch him 'block'!, OMG, I would love to see that replayed over and over and over again. He's a blocking gurhllie-maaan for sure! Even the announcers were laughing about it. Not only does JoMO throw the interception he gets a 10 yard penalty for (as the announcers put it) "bad form". hahahaha. Like they said, Joey's going to be cringing when he sees what a schmuck he is on t.v.

They should make him practice in the linebacker position this year, maybe that'll toughen the lad up a little. I mean really, did you see how cutely he fell in front of the guy, it was quite dainty, just like our Joey. A delicate little flower.
