Okay, someone get me Millen's home number!! What the hell?! I turn on the radio today and just happen to catch the tail end of the announcers in shocked voices talking about how Minnesota passed on Williams, then it goes to a commercial

Commercials over, I don't follow college football, so on draft day the names don't mean much to me, I'm mainly interested in the position they played. So meanwhile, the announcers are talking about how Minnesota took Williamson instead of Williams and with Moss gone, they really thought they were going to take Williams. Arizona's turn (blah blah blah) Washington's turn they take the Cornerback ! DAMMIT ! I have been complaining for some years now about the fact that the Lions have never had any real good corners. Not that I can remember anyway. And here Washington goes & takes him from us, I knew it was going to happen though because Washington is usually a Defense Team.

Okay, well that sucks but there is another good corner, and a couple of linebackers out there. Lions turn, by now I'm at a pizza joint with a coworker that has to PEE all the time (hehehehe, private joke ) and the Lions announce that they take....... Williams...... WHAT?? WHAT THE F***? What?! Why in the hell, Who in the hell? I am dumbfounded! It's really pathetic that a girly tomboy knows more about football then 'football' guys. I mean what are these bozo's thinking??!! The way I described what had just happened with this football pick to my coworker is akin to what millions of women (& their husbands/boyfriends) can relate to and goes as follows:

"Hun, I'm going to run to the store and get that ski jacket that you said I would NEED for our ski trip before they're all gone, do you have everything you need? All packed? I know I shouldn't have waited so long, but I'll be back before you know it, and still have time to pack"

"Just try & hurry, we have to be at the airport early. I have everything I need and I'm packed."

So off we go to the mall and as we're walking toward the ski shop we notice a beautiful bathing suit at the Guess store, "Wow, I can't believe no one bought that and it's the same one that the bitch down the street said she was going to buy and that was a one of a kind". So we traipse in, almost in a trance and buy it! Hah! THAT felt GOOD!

Well, getting back to the ski jacket, we find that once we get to the store, the jackets no longer there, "Oh well, I'll just get a cheaper one, at least I got that bathing suit! The nerve of that 'woman' telling me that she had already bought the one of a kind, hah". Feeling smug we get home and tell our hubby all about the bitch down the street and how she passed up this bathing suit and how I managed to snatch it.

"That's great sweetie, but did you get that ski jacket I told you about, you're really going to NEED it or you're going to be miserably cold the whole time. You did NEED a ski jacket, and although the bathing suit is beautiful you have 2 other one's that are just as pretty and already broken in. I just don't understand you women, why buy something you don't need and skimp on what really matters?" muttering "...sheesh women!" as he walks away.

So there they are on the ski slopes, she's freezing her ass off because she didn't buy the jacket she NEEDED. She then ruins the trip by deciding she's going to sit in the hotel room the rest of the time, because as it turns out, the 'one of a kind' bathing suit she bought for the hot tub turned out to be too tight and just doesn't fit quite right, so it sits in her suitcase right next to her 2nd rate ski jacket. Well maybe she can lose some weight & use the swimsuit next year, and heck she can just buy another ski jacket then too. She drifts off into a restless sleep having a nightmare of her husband skiing the best slopes with a girl wearing the good ski jacket, muttering she'll get it right next year.

Whoever the 'mastermind' was in making the decision of choosing yet ANOTHER wide receiver, should be fired. Right Now! I would be happy to work for the Lions for free and swear to make intelligent decisions. You can't score offensive touchdowns while the other teams offense is on the field!

If our offense only has 8 minutes per game because our corners and/or our linebackers can't make the stops, then I don't care if they go out and get Favre & Moss, they'd only be playing catchup. I mean we're not talking rocket science here. We NEED to STOP the other teams!! We have a good base with Rogers and Hall, we need to build on them, around them. Why can't the @#*%$ Lions front office understand that??? Williams can go out and score a touchdown every time he's out on the field, but we need a strong defense to give the offense the opportunity to win. Hell a good corner can even score touchdowns too. Argh, I"m too frustrated with the damn Lions to see straight anymore right now.

Here's to Millen and the tough defense guy he purported himself to be, and here's to whoever else is making these dumbass decisions... my salute to you ...From one of your disgruntled season ticket holders.
