The Lions will need the help of the Bears fans to come east and buy tickets for the game at Ford Field to sell out. I don't see a sell out the rest of the year. They be even be playing in front of crowds of 2000, 3000. That would be a statement to the Fords that something has got to change. How Matt Millen keeps his job is beyond me. He must have pictures of Mr.Ford with another woman or something.

It has to be worse than that for him to have a job this long. After 2 years, he would have given in if it had just been him and a woman. For Millen to have a job this long, it has to be something that I can't even mention on here.

LOL... Well that's quite interesting there.

All I can say is where did that offensive line of the Steelers go? Because they sure weren't there yesterday....

Pics with him and a guy from Toyota?

That's what happens when you play the Eagles. They're either going to kill you with their blitz scheme or you're going to kill them if you pick it up. I'm a Cowboys fan and we seem to loose to them once a year in a similar fashion. I wouldn't get down about it. That's just what it's like to play them sometimes.

Go Cowboys! I'd really like to see them in the Superbowl this year.

For the life of me I can't remember the superbowl last year. Was it Giants? Who else? Who won?

Giants vs. the Patriots, Giants won last year.

The Cowboys are a good bet to get there this year. They look solid.

Yeah that'd be my preference, but if they don't for some reason it wouldn't be a total loss to see the Packers, Eagles, or even Giants go again. It's a real toss up in the AFC right now though. I'd like to see the Broncos in the superbowl more than anyone there. The Bills and Titans are doing good but it seems they've played against more weaker teams so only time will tell for them. I like the Patriots too but with Tom Brady injured I'm not sure how they'll do. Just making conversation now, but I also heard the Chargers got cheated out of a win because of a call the ref made(I believe it was against the Broncos).

Does anyone else have any hopes for Superbowl?

Yup, there was a bad call in the Chargers/Broncos game last weekend that allowed the Broncos to keep possession of the ball and go on to score when it should have been a fumble that the Chargers recovered. The ref in question admitted he screwed up the call, but that type of play isn't reviewable. I heard he is replying to all of the hate e-mail he has received. I think the rule about forward motion of the arm is ridiculous to begin with.

I just read this, and since it fits in with the original topic.


Ford Jr.: Lions’ Millen should leave team

4 hours, 18 minutes ago


DETROIT (AP)—Bill Ford Jr. has seen enough of the way team president Matt Millen is running his father’s Detroit Lions.

The Ford Motor Co. executive chairman spoke to reporters Monday after a Detroit Economic Club meeting. The vice chairman of the Lions said he was disappointed in the team’s performance and said fans deserve better.

When asked, Ford said Millen should leave the team, but he didn’t have the authority to make such a significant change.

His father, William Clay Ford, is the owner and chairman of the franchise.

The Lions are 0-3 this season and an NFL-worst 31-84 since hiring Millen, who won Super Bowls as a linebacker and was an acclaimed TV analyst but had no front-office experience when he was hired in Detroit.
