*** OFFICIAL DETROIT LIONS SUPPORT GROUP THREAD ***

[UrbScotty]

8-8 in 2005, right?

[MrScorpio]

1. Why do hate America so?

WHY?!?

[DODI]

2. As a Packers fan, I do support the Lions -- I would rather see them

playing right now rather than that other team. Good luck next year!

[Guaranteed]

3. If it makes you feel any better, they

were on the losing end of Joe Montana's last two touchdown drives with the 49ers. A beautiful moment in 49ers' history, one I will never forget.

Two last drives, two last touchdowns.

:)

4. Who cares?

:D

[Guaranteed]

10. I'll take that as a "It doesn't make me feel better."

Well, if it makes you feel any better about the Lions' woes, it makes me feel better about the Niners' woes. :)

5. Detroit=the biggest city in the U.S. without a professional football team

They've sucked since I was a little kid. And they weren't that good even then!

6. thanks for this...

I've been needing it. With Rogers back, Jones healthy, another draft...

We're going 7-9!!

go lions.

7. The Bengals look like the NE Patriots compared to the Lions

:evilgrin:

[banjosareunderrated]

11. yep---the Bengals.....

were expected to contend for the playoffs, the Lions were expected to overachieve at 8-8. Lions went 6-10, pussycats 8-8. And the Lions have a better rookie class. Sorry, and with all due respect, but the Bengals are the most disappointing team in football this year.

You've always got the Reds!

BTW, I know I'm new around here and I shouldn't talk s**t but, c'mon, the Bengals?!? The Lions are supposed to suck.

[Strawman]

8. They're gonna make the playoffs next year, damnit

Unless Kevin Jones blows out his knee like Billy Sims did. Always a possibility given the Lions' luck.

Lion's fandom: my one and only faith-based endeavor.

9. Being a Lions fan

can sometimes feel like being a liberal in a red state come election season. You get excited at first and then all your hopes are crushed and you look on enviously at some other state's winners.

If I can't watch the lions play well, then I have a hard time watching any football.

[WindRavenX]

12. Joey needs receivers!

:cry: :cry: :cry:
I love Joey, but it sucks watching him sometimes...

[Renew Deal]

13. They finished ahead of the Bears.

That has to count for something.

[GregW]

14. Well ... as a Ducks/Niner fan ..

I gotta say ...

Go Lions!
