    as a bears fan, this team is a great story...im happy for the poor people of detroit to have a nice distraction like this...both the lions and tigers are doing well.

    Is this the Georgia connection? ;)

    Never been an SEC or ACC conference fan, but sure love the talent they produce!

    I'm experiencing a sports overload right now, between this and the Tigers game.

    It seemed for a while there like your boys were trying to give the game right back to Dallas. That "drive" where they had a penalty on almost every play. And before that when Suh took that bad penalty to give Dallas a 1st down when they would have had to punt.

    Unfortunately penalties are nothing new to this team. They scared me on that 2nd to last drive.

    Suh is a hybrid who cares not for rules. Only carnage. :twisted: Which is why the refs are always watching.
    I think he'll find a happy medium where he doesn't lose his intensity. Just needs some time.

    Gotta say, paying for the sunday ticket just to watch the lions every week feels a whole lot better so far this year. Calvin is a beast.

    I would imagine. I don't even want to know what it was like being a Lions fan during their "perfect season". :lol:

    I like my shirt better.

    I went to the Titans and Saints games. Stayed through the entire game both times. I guess that makes me a masochist.

    That Saints games looked like a real nailbiter. 42-7? You were right to stick around, you never know what can happen. You could have left and it turned out to be another Heidi Bowl.

    The best shirt was the 4-0 2008 Preseason Champs!

    It's all good. I've been waiting since Spielman left to have a decent team to watch.

    What are the chances of any caps, flexfit style, that have both the Lions and Tigers logos?
