    man talk about unlucky. first it's nick fairley in a walking boot whose diagnosis i'm still not clear on and now their rookie draft pick RB from illinois leshoure is out for the year.

    just feel bad for them (except when suh almost decapitated delhomme......now that i think about it maybe jake shoulda just stayed down and handed in his papers). almost every year since growing up in sandusky only 60 nw from me, they've pretty much always been shitty. last year they looked like they were finally gonna turn the corner and now the injury bug hits motown. yikes.

    i know we've got our own probs but outta all the nfc teams i'd like to see the lions finally pull themselves outta that shit-hole they've been living in for about 30 years........oh wait! that shit-hole is called detroit. that explains it.

    I always root for Detroit, they are one of the few cities and professional teams that can actually relate to our fandom. Two really big injuries though, if Fairley does pan out though and becomes good in 2-3 years you could easily make the argument they have the best d-line in football.

    Lion fans have much in common with us browns fans so yeah i pull for the lions unless they are playing us of course..

    And while we have a lot in common with the lion fans and i like em, they still look like dorks in their blue afro hair and silver faces...muhahahaha!

    Injuries are going to ravage many clubs this year especially teams that have players competing for the starting job with such a short camp before pre-season next week, I like the way coach shurmur is handling the team thusfar and cant wait until saturday to see what he has in mind and how he thinks especially with the unjelled largely unprepared youth he has working the new system..

    I just took what you said, about like what the video said. Cleveland is not the best city to live in, but at least it's not detroit. The video said it slightly more harsh.

    That term of residence in that shithole is now going on 54 years since they last won the NFL title in 1957, and unlike the Browns who have had a lot of playoff opportunities since their

    last title, the Lions have only had a sniff like 1 time. I think they have won 1 single playoff game since 1957....let me check: Right. 1991 they beat the Cowboys 38-6. That has been their only postseason win since 1957.
