Yup, It's sunday again and I'm saying that this time I'm comin home smilin! The Lions can beat the Vikings! All that needs to happen is this:

Randy Moss decides he "don't feel like playing, after all, it's only Detroit".

Chris Carter breaks hand socking Randy Moss for his refusal to play

Daunte Culpepper starts (not knocking Daunte here, but the Lions have a history of getting beat realllllly badly by unheard of back up quarterbacks)

Barry Sanders un-retires, effective today (always at his best against Minnesota)

Mike McMahon is the second coming of.............well, uhhhh, lets just say he's not Charlie Batch, Scott Mitchell, Eric Kramer, Rodney Peete, or Andre Ware ;) or Stoney Case, Frank Reich, or Dave Krieg, for that matter :D

In all seriousness though, I know it's too early to really know for sure, but I think this kid is gonna be good. Let us Lions fans hope that he doesnt get ruined by their shoddy offensive line before he has a chance to develop into the QB I think he can be. He has displayed a knack for getting out of touble in the pocket with his quick feet. Another thing that impressed me about him is his ability to throw on the run, across the field, with accuracy, and velocity. There is no doubt in my mind he has an NFL arm.
 
Thank You, I believe that is actually my drunken stupor look ;)

Seriously though, I always have a great time at the game, thanks for the compliment!

I'm waiting for my buddy to get here and them I am off for another fun day of tailgating and football!
 
Well, drunken stupor look or not....still looks nice.

I'm sure you will have a good time today! Come back and tell us all about it.:)

Lol me too, couldn't have been against a better team to beat. Randy Moss, while a supreme talent, is just a plain asshole. What kind of player tells his teammates, "I only play when I wanna play!"? Well, thank you Randy, because you obviously didn't want to play in the first half today. One catch. Maybe if you had wanted to play on the last possession of the game, you could have won. Randy, how could you let your teammates down like that? I mean, when you did feel like playing, you made some dam good plays, but in the end, if your team lost, and you didn't feel like playing the whole game, then why play at all? Stop wasting roster space and let someone who WANTS to play football have a chance.

Sorry, rant over.
