The home season ender was a repeat of last year: a loss. It also marked the second straight year where fans got up out of their expensive seats and walked out of the stadium in protest. This year, about 100 or so fans staged a walkout.
It has been widely reported that the management of […]

According to an Associated Press report, a group of Lions fans are planning a walkout of the team’s final home game. Last year’s final home game was marred when hundreds of Lions fans came to the game wearing Bengals fan colors, and then walked out in the second quarter. This year, the fans are planning […]

Sorry for the late post (again). But this post is an easy one to write:
The Lions looked horrible on Sunday. The Honolulu Blue was crushed 30-20 by the shockingly mediocre Minnesota Vikings. Detroit made mistakes in all aspects of the game and even Jon Kitna played poorly. The Vikes ran the ball all day long, […]

Defensive tackle Shaun Rogers has been placed on injured reserve, meaning he is officially done for the season.
This is actually not a bad idea. The Lions have no chance of making the playoffs. Rogers was suspended from the NFL for violating the league’s banned substance policy, and he had surgery while being suspended. Rogers […]

Sorry for the late post on the loss to New England. My “real job” is in the retail sector, so Christmas time is a bit crazy. But, yes, I did get to watch Sunday’s loss to New England.
