As long as you have those thousand monkeys on those thousand typewriters, it's going to be the greatest novel of all time.
We still have Rathman and Jeep Chrysler.

Dude now you just motivated me.
Before the season starts I'm putting $100 on the Detroit Lions winning the Super Bowl and going to post a picture of my betting ticket.
When I win $10,000 or whatever I'll send you a Detroit Lions jersey. You want a Stafford jersey or Suh?

Lol at best you're going to get like 10:1 (since they were a playoff team last year). That's 100 for 1K. 10,000 no way... man.
Top teams are usually like 6:1 or 7. I'm talking about future bets of course.

Kas said it first: the Lions are just as likely to win the Superbowl as the Buccaneers and Jets are!

So WesternHeretic what you're saying as of this day the Lions odds to win the Super Bowl in 2016 are 10:1.
Nah I'm fucking around with the .gif. Our chances are 5:1 and ramuh is getting a Stafford or Suh jersey.
No way 5. Even the Champs are usually at 6.

The Lions chances are currently 30:1, the same as the cap hell Saints and the one and done Bengals!So WesternHeretic what you're saying as of this day the Lions odds to win the Super Bowl in 2016 are 10:1.

Austin may not even interview with Denver, maybe he's getting the Atlanta job?
Edit: Late. I missed the earlier post.
Falcoholics staff is pretty certain Dan Quinn will be the Falcons HC.

The Falcons have another interview with him next week.

Oh well, fuck that then. Didn't realize it was Pete's scheme as opposed to Gus' and Quinn's. I'm not sure either guy could put a system in place and motivate a defense the same way that they do in Seattle somewhere else. At least with Austin you can control for some factors when the Lions showed improvement.
Not really feeling Gase as a headcoach or OC for the Broncos. Not unless he can really learn how to employ zone run schemes much more frequently and better.

Kas, regardless of your Lions opinions, I just can't see you in the poorhouse. Pls don't waste all your money like this.
UM pedigree most likely. Most of the guys who come from the school pan out to be great, good, or decent players. You have to look past the shitty coaching job Al Golden has done. Funny that UM had a losing season yet this is the one the better classes they have sent to the draft in a few years.

Given the current pool of prospects, Dan Quinn ain't a bad get for Atlanta.
Also seeing around that Mike Smith is more or less a shoe-in for Raiders DC spot.

Ugh. I hate all the players being early mocked to the Steelers. a Free Safety in the first? Seriously?

At least that's one thing I can agree with you on.

Welp, Schaub is available if Manning retires.

The NFL is incredibly incestuous.
They probably won't take a corner, either. They're going to take the bpa.
At least the Eagles will now have competition to sign all our former players.

All but official. Expect Dennis Allen to be his DC.

What is that? Draft doesn't appear particularly robust at any one position. I'm figuring linebacker but nobody has stood out.

John Fox took Tebow to the playoffs and Jake Delhomme and Peyton Manning to the Super Bowl. If anyone can prop up Cutler to being mediocre it'd be John Fox clearly.

Idina Menzel is better than all of yall and this is the one thing I'm def. looking forward to at the SB

Last night my wife wanted to return something at that soap store Lush, so I drove her there after work. I dropped her off, circled the block, then picked her up. She got in the car and I circled the block to head home and we saw two bodies on the sidewalk. Apparently some girl fell from an 8th story window and landed on a pedestrian. Shit was fucked up. I had passed the same spot no more than 3-5mins prior and she hadn't fallen, so I guess I was there again very shortly after it happened. Huge crowd of people were all looking up at the building and down at the people on the sidewalk in disbelief. The girl who fell died and the pedestrian was ok but really roughed up apparently.
Also, it is the two year anniversary of Chip's hiring.

Menzel is a winner and not a scrub
Manziel is a loser and a scrub
I can see the confusion, but Johnny Fucking Fraud wouldn't even be able to sing at a SB
Best Player Available? I'm fine with an upgrade at pretty much every position, with the possible exception of rb, center and inside lb. Go into the draft and see who drops.
When was the last time cajun posted?

Definitely a shit draft, outside of a few DL, not much there. I'm sure there are some diamonds in there somewhere tho.

Edit: Kyle Shanahan turned down Niners for OC position.

Sounds like Austin won't get the Falcons job. Good news for the Lions although I'd imagine he only has one year left with us. Watch him get the Steelers job next season.
