Detroit Lions

[dshans]

im a hockey fan, so for the last few years when I refer to any detroit sports teams (not just the red wings) but any team, as Day-twah

You beat me to it, TD. My ex was a French teacher so I facetiously adopted the snooty frenchy pronunciation.

I heard Chris Berman from ESPN say it a few times and it just stuck.

Oh please, they truly beat Chicago IN Chicago until they got absolutely screwed.

1. They wouldn't have sniffed how the Bears FINISHED even if they won that game
2. They didn't win that game

The season is 16 games long, not one

This.

If you don't think that this...

was a catch... you are blinded by your bias for the bears.

If you think the Lions getting the W for that game would have miraculously made them FINISH AHEAD OF THE BEARS (which is clearly what the post I responded to said), then you are blinded by something much worse than bias......

Im willing to bet what little vbucks i have that detroit finishes above chicago in the nfc north this year... that is of course if there is football.

And i am not saying that detroit would have finished with a better record than chicago last year. just that they beat chicago in chicago and had the game stolen from them by a bogus call

As I never said the call wasn't bogus, or the Lions shouldn't have won. I just stated the Bears were awarded the win, and finished quite a bit ahead of the Lions.

Will this year be different? Very well could be, so of course I need to get some jabs in now. If the season is on, I will definitely throw some vbux down on Bears-Lions final record.

Why is so much verbage being directed to the Detroit Lions? This is a Notre Dame board. Why doesn't the moderator stop this nonsense? Who really gives a rat's *** about the Detroit Lions anyway!

 

[Irish Fam]

there are numerous threads that are for subjects other than notre dame

 

[ndyeater]

Guarantee the Lions will be in a Superbowl within the next 7 years...

 

[anarin]

I'd take that bet...

 

[ndyeater]

They have been going in the right direction...I think they need a better quarterback then Stafford though..he cant seem to stay healthy

 

[ACamp1900]

I'd take that bet...

so would I... obviously with the Browns winning four of the next seven that only leaves three years for the rest of the league....

 

[BleedBlue&Gold]

my Cowboys play the Lions this year, that D-line could give us hell.

 

[ndyeater]

there D-Line is stacked

You fittin' to straight be arrested, homey.

As if the Fairley injury wasn't enough...

Lions HC Jim Schwartz: "Mikel Leshoure tore his achilles in practice today. He's going to be out for the season."

 

[Riddickulous]

Damn.

 

[tankjeep]

wonder if paper lion at qb will stay healthy this season. cuz he can somehow stay healthy....the lions could make some noise.

Well if Ngtrfedsswrtvhuygrtyhbvsethvdfghurfhgff Suh keeps headhunting opposing QBs, I personally guarantee Stafford doesn't make it to Week 4....
