Hey Lions Fans, how are you holding up?
You lost to the PACKERS. That's gotta sting.

2. I was wondering about Houston fans, myself.
*points and laughs at the fans of a team with a 1-12 record*

:evilgrin::evilgrin:

Mind you, I'm a Pats gal, and we haven't had a great season, but then again, our whole fucking division sucks this year. :D :D

3. Not a Lions fan but it was sort of a tie
It's like a 1/2 a win getting to OT against a team with 4 wins and all.

4. I was at a lions fan board..
A lot of them seemed pissed over something about a blown call costing them a saftey.

I wouldn't know. I turned it off after Favre fumbled that pass.

5. The announcers screwed up the call on that one...They thought
Tauscher was being called for a hold and he was in the endzone, which would create a safety. The Center was the one who was going to be called for holding and he was out of the endzone. :hi:

7. I'm with Mr. Grumpy and I think you are WRONG!
LOL.

According to the AP article, the hold was in the end zone. You must have been reading the Green Bay paper.

By the way, even though you are incorrect (and I am sure you are don't feel proud of your wrongful win) happy birthday to your dog on the 17th.

6. I'm doing great !
I haven't watched them in weeks ! The last time I saw the Lions play was on Thanksgiving, and I only watched 3 minutes of that game ! I decided I wasn't going to let them ruin my dinner.

While the Loins were playing last night, I went and watched my friend's kid play hockey. His team won 5-2 ! A good time was had by all. Both teams played with reckless abandon ! Oh, to be 14 again !!!

11. They seriously need to clean house over there.
Edited on Mon Dec-12-05 06:36 PM by WeRQ4U
It's like noone wants to win.

What the hell was Sean Rogers thinking at the end of the game? THat had to be one of the most boneheaded things a player has done in a while. Gave them 15 yards and a 1st down FREE. That's a LOT of field position in OT.

And, for the record, Joey Harrington is still a better QB than Jeff Garcia. He sucks. I don't care how athletic they SAY he is, or how good they SAY his decision making skills are, or how they SAY he's a better leader... he sucks. Joey Harrington is not an elite QB, that's for sure. But I guarantee that he'll do better once the Lions mercifully let him go. He'll find new life in a different organization. He's got a great arm. Garcia's about as overrated as they come.

12. I'm just so damn happy
that my non-Detroit-living tax dollars paid for a brand new stadium for a bunch of fucking losers.

The deal should have been "Win a championship and you'll get your new stadium".

Fuckers.

13. It's OK. Only 48 years, after all. Sunday: The Millen Man March.
I may be there. My friend normally takes his two teenage sons, but he is afraid this may get a tad crude.

14. If it's the Reggie Bush bowl, then maybe we actually won
I don't see how we can win again all season. And I agree about Garcia. He's a jerk and a terrible quarterback.
