Detroit Lions Continue on 60-Year Rebuilding Program
Quote | Reply
The Detroit Lie-Downs suck and their head coach, Jim Caldwell, needs to be fired. And their owners, the Ford family, need to have their franchise taken away from them, because they're pathetic losers as well.

That is all.

Them and the Maple Leafs. Now you know how we feel.

I'm 53 years old and I don't think I'll live long enough to see the Lions make a Super Bowl....and I have longevity in my family.

Was on the fence about firing Caldwell, He has his ups and downs. But this loss excusable, Why you don't challenge that pass at the end. Yeah you probably would have lost.. BUT IT WAS YOUR ONLY HOPE, and in this league of who the hell knows what a completion is it costs you nothing.. you need to challenge it.

Of course after you fire him.. who the hell do you put in... I think you try and get Harbaugh, he can still live in AA where he wants to be, but get back to coaching at a level I think he can coach.

The Lions seem to be in a better place than they have been (of course you could say Caldwell has gotten a lot out of this team). The off season, once again will be an interesting one.

As a 53 year old Astros fan, it can happen so I just wanted you to feel like there is still a chance it will happen in your lifetime.

I believe that JIm Harbaugh is the answer to the Lion's coaching problems. Hahahaha. Just kidding. There is no answer as long as the Ford family owns the team.

You just hit the nail on the head. If you change every single facet of the operation, numerous times, over the decades, and you still have a sad sack, middle-of-the-pack-at-best, team then the problem is YOU. The Fords gotta go.
