i'll post on here once and be gone!

those stupid boneheads should have traded away 5 picks or more earlier and got JAY CUTLER!!! i am very po'd they got a QB that only has a rocket arm and came out this year for the money instead of staying for next years class. stafford will dissapoint, but hey, he can make up to 75 million, and has not taken one pro snap, and is not all they make him out to be. should be another harrington for us! the lions had the money and the picks to get a PRO- BOWL QB.... CUTLER! but noooo save them and draft a nobody for a guaranteed 65 mil???  those idiots just make me sick!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Stafford can't be another Chuck Long, Andre Ware, or Joey Harrington! Gotta get lucky on a qb this time

Depends on what they do with free agents. Regardless of who's the QB, if the line can't protect more than 0.75 seconds, he's toast. Montana, Elway even Farve would be forgetable happy feet/dead meat busts. They need a bucket full of OL to sort through. Draft? Thought they should have taken a nasty/focused MLB as their face for the "D" early, they have nobody that installs the least bit of fear in anyone and need that type of attitude........still plenty of undrafted and/or free agents looking for work. 'Tis the off season, there's always hope  ::) ::) ::)

Should have built a better base before drafting the franchise QB.  I'd rather they took some of Stafford's money, and drafted a OT and sign a Free Agent Defensive lineman or linebacker.  I croaked when they passed the chance to get the USC middle linebacker.  He was there for the taking. 

I'm thinking they have a pretty good chance of having the first pick agian next year.

they have to get some offensive line help in free agency. Who knows they could have someone in line. but what i dont understand is not drafting ray maulaga(or how ever you spell it). they pick brandon pettigrew then they had a chance at him in the second and pick delmas, nothing wrong with the guy but it would have been nice to have a big middle linebacker.

he was there twice! this looked like a millen draft. the tight end pick was a wasted pick. That is one of the last pieces a team needs. tackle and d-line were needed and they passed on 2 quality ones on Ohur and Jerry. The best chance they have is getting Levi Jones from Bengals since they drafted a new left tackle.

You start with the qb. Cowboys, 49ers, and colts did it to perfection

Who has 10 hours to watch a slow sport like baseball?
Title: Re: Lions
Post by: Bgreen02 on Apr 27, 2009, 11:01 PM
I watch every tigers game I can. I love being at the games but I watch them at home as well. Baseball is a sport that if you love it you can watch it no matter what. I can't stand NASCAR but I know guys who will watch all day if possible

i could care less about any michigan team! i'm not a fan of hockey.... i guess thats all we got?
 i loved the tigers and the lions as a kid, but not nowadays. i've always been a hardcore denver broncos fan and a hardcore atlanta braves fan! so things r not making me happy w/ my teams either! actually, the only people in pro sports i cheer for and sometimes win r in golf.... phil, and boo!
