Same old Lions

Once again, the Detroit Lions have given fans a glimmer of hope only to fall flat on their faces. Sound familiar? Real shocker, eh! The Lions went undefeated in the pre-season only to begin the real season by laying a tremendous turkey egg against the Falcons at the Georgia Dome . If we ever needed a reminder that the pre-season is meaningless, today's woeful performance is surely it. Although it appears the Lions will be able to score some points this year, their defense is completely non-existent. I have never seen so many missed tackles in my life. I can hardly wait to read Drew Sharp's (Detroit Free Press sportswriter, for those not in the know, and a guy who pretty much lives on writing scathing, sarcastic articles about local sports teams) sure-to-be-scathing article tomorrow. His article should at least be more entertaining that today's game.
