Yukon–How fresh are the smokes that you have to utilize in that wager, and what brand? Were there piles of ashes comprising of burnt tickets and shattered dreams, lining the paths to Ford Field?

Phil–It is surprising how far the organization has fallen since that ‘04 entry, a time when I was much less cynical about the team’s plight. You are correct, their QB situation is far from settled and the Lions will continue to wildly grasp the air in hopes of grabbing hold of a serviceable candidate.

Patrick–the website you linked (Official Players Network) is very cool. Even with all of the technology and team’s searching high and low for talent, there are occasional players who slip through the cracks, like a Trey Young for example.

From your September 04 blog:
This is a pivotal time for Harrington and the Lions organization. All Detroit fans want to see Harrington become a top-flight Pro Bowl caliber performer. Rather than question Harrington’s fire, manhood, or choice of spirits why not question the management sense of the organization that implemented an offensive system that is supposedly so complicated that it takes 3-4 years to master in a time when first round draft picks are expected play and perform immediately? That is the real issue at hand in my eyes.
