Anybody know the longest streak for consecutive blackouts? We are now officially at 3 in a row.
Can’t see the game within 75 miles, that includes Metro Detroit, Flint and Lansing.

“It’s a big loss,” Bucs coach Jon Gruden told Detroit reporters in a conference call. “He’s a tremendous character and an outstanding performer and a leader here and a go-to guy. You lose your feature back, it’s a problem for us.” ...

“Who wants to look at a leader who’s a grouch or a pouter? There’s too much of that here anyway, isn’t it? Too much around. So when things are bad, a leader’s supposed to step up and lead from the front, and that’s what I’m going to do.”

This could just be wishful thinking… but just imagine the possibilities…
This guy is the real deal. He’s done it, the guys under him (ie, that Falcons Team that whooped on us week 1) are proving themselves in the league and this guy is a guru ...

You can say the Lions didn’t look that bad. You can say Culpepper looked pretty decent (despite giving up two picks) and you can also say that the Lions showed a lot of heart today, and its all true.
But here’s what’s also true: The Lions can’t tackle. In a league of ...

They “did good” except for holding onto the ball too long, so says Colletto:
“Both he and Daunte held the ball a little bit, a couple of times…And that happens when they don’t play. Their first time out there and the speed of the game and making instant ...

Its official, no more dancing around, Culpepper will start. Further, Stanton may see more goal line action like he did last week.
In other QB news, Drew Henson has been cut. Bye Drew!

“You’re in this dark tunnel and you’ve got no way out… You’re waiting for the light and you see that light, so what do you do? You start digging and getting out.”
And if there’s no light at the end of the tunnel?

In a nutshell, Culpepper was a mixed bag,
at times looking sluggish and fat yet delivering flashes
of brilliant execution. It was exciting for about 5 minutes…
Only thing that we know for sure is that Orlovsky is out, though when asked Marinelli would not comment on whether or not the 4th year QB out of UConn will be placed on IR. He is slated to see another specialist this week.
The Quarterback situation is completely in the air and the Coaching ...

It’s official, Lions are blacked out yet again. They weren’t even close ticket sales-wise.
So here we are AGAIN.
You can listen to the game on 97.1 FM.
There are also some internet options where they pirate the signal, you may Google that if you would so choose.

I t happened two weeks ago (or something like that) . Foster gets the start over Cherilus and reporters were wondering why the coach wasn’t going with his young, developing “talent”. He indicted that he has too much respect for the game to hand someone a start, that it must be ...

It’s official
Culpepper is the guy that will afford the Lions the best chance to win. Riiight.
So we dig him up and throw him in the pool to see how he swims. Who are we to judge, right? We haven’t seen him play so I suppose we should allow him the opportunity to leave it out ...

Adam did one, I have the technology so I figured I’d knock one out too.
Conclusion: The Lions are a mess. Enjoy.

It just felt… natural, y’know?
It’s not new to us that the Lions will lead for a sizeable portion of the game and give that up in the 4th. It’s also not new that the Lions actually controlled their own destiny with 5 minutes to go, only to end up 4th down and a ...

Wat? Yeah, you read it right, this coaching staff just signed a 31 year old with robot legs to a 2 year contract.
What does this mean?! What the hell is going on at allen park? Does this mean that we’re sticking with this head coach and his staff?!? What is that going to mean to a ...

He apparently canceled a meeting and workout with another team, and apparently the Lions didn’t even flinch when he wanted a 2 year contract (WTF?!?!?) but still nothing has officially happened and the team and the unsigned free agent haven’t said a word.

This is to sell tickets.
Don’t get your hopes up about winning much, Culpepper as at best completely unproven in the wake of his last productive snaps being 4 years behind him. BUT, this will sell some jersey’s and, as I’m sure the Lions upper management hopes, put some ...
