ltstorm1 Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 I have been reading the Lions message boards lately, and its so fun to read the " In Game Threads" They all start off with " The Falcons are horrible, we're going to destory them." " Who's that Grimes midget?" " Ryan's a rookie, we're going to confuse him"Then the message board imploded after the first TD, and never let up. They blamed everyone for the loss. Good reading.

Goodoleboy58 Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 I've skimmed the Bucs message board and the Pats message board today as well they are all in chaos... Some guy on the Pats message board is blaming Roger Goddell for suspending Faulk for pot, because Faulk would have had the block... Wow.

Goodoleboy58 Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 this is a good article i found on the Lions board:Lions Embarrass Themselves and Fans with Terrible Opening PerformanceBy Hondo S. Carpenter Sr.Lions ImplodeThe Lions said things had changed and showed off a proud 4-0 preseason record. Vegas said the Lions were four point favorites. Well, they both were wrong. It didn’t take long for the frustration to show as Lions QB Jon Kitna went after an assistant coach on the sidelines and everyone could see that nothing has changed. The Lions kept a plethora (that stands for 11 of the 53 man roster) of DL and they could have kept 53 and it wouldn’t have helped.The Lions weren’t beat by a rookie QB. They were humiliated. The Falcons felt for one season what the Lions franchise and Lions fans have endured for almost all of William Clay Ford’s years at the wheel: Embarrassed! Unlike the Lions who have suffered since Ford became the owner in1963, the Falcons fixed it in one season. I know that it was only one game for them, but was there any doubt by anyone that saw this game that this was two franchises coming off of bad years (fifty plus for the Lions) and which one was going in the right direction?The defense was lackluster. The QB went on a temper tantrum and the result was the same. Lions lose again. I said before the season that this was a six win team. I was ripped, torn and “taken to task” and perhaps I should have been: for being overly optimistic. I certainly understand that this was one game, but for Lions’ fans and a franchise that has a cloud of despair that hangs over it, it was more than one game.

AmazingA Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 I predict we will cause multiple message board implosions this season. Next up the Bucs. "Don't worry guys, it was just the LIONS!!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

311csu Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 Quote:Originally Posted by cruzer1 View PostBet.the.house. Ever heard of Brent Grimes? He's suppose to cover either Johnson or Williams. He's listed as a starting corner for them. This will get ugly.I hope you didn't bet the house cruzer.It's gonna get ugly, just the other way.

The direction we have been wanting to move towards for a long time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trouble Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 The Lions defense is so bad it crashed my internet browser.This season was fun while it lasted. Let's start talking about the 2009 draft.The Lions are the ONLY team that can be this disappointing.Thats 30 mins into the game...I had to stop reading... its gonna bring a tear to my eye.

xFalconLord Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 That halarious. You would think their tenure with matt millan would keep them humble by the prospect of a good season. Hah, oh well. I feel bad for Calvin Johnson. He has to listen to that screaming idiot they call Kitna out there in Detroit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
