He's actually a pretty good golfer with a ridiculously low handicap.Ninja Scooter said:why is Romo ALWAYS wearing a PGA Tour hat?

woodchuck said:hopefully the new GM trades Roy Williams. he deserves a better home
wonder if millen goes back to working at fox :lol
woodchuck said:i'm not sure if it's two games or two weeks. he may be only missing one game since they have a bye this week
Gaborn said:If he was fired and didn't resign (reports aren't completely clear which happened) then he's entitled to his full salary, including another 10 million dollars which he's forfeit if he resigned. My guess is he won't need to work for a LONG while. Still, he's GONE! he's actually GONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
woodchuck said:damn. is there any reason millen was getting paid so much (besides the stupidity of the owner)

Argh. Just let him play against Seattle and bench him against Cleveland. After our recent history with Seattle I want to fucking drop 70 on them, and that would only be helped if Burress plays.Ninja Scooter said:Plaxico suspended 2 games by the Giants for doucheyness.

Well, whatever team rule he broke, I am at least glad they are taking a hard line stance, just like the Panthers. No one on the team is above the law.

my name is ed said:Whytemyke will be rejoicing like no other until he watches his team play on sunday
LiveWire said:I dunno, even the team might suddenly play better knowing the douchebag in charge is gone. Plus the fans will be so excited to take in the air of a stadium without Millen the energy might just will the Lions to a win. :lol
effzee said:actually its all about the ratings. and right now he will be sought after by all the networks (nfl, cbs, nbc, espn, and fox) just so they can ask him questions about "what went wrong?" and "who really is to blame?"
Couldn't some qbs get around that?levious said:it's like in Tecmo Bowl when the defense picks the right play.
Kung Fu Jedi said:Maybe in the short term, but I'd be very surprised to see him back in a booth any time soon. The man has pretty much been a laughing stock to NFL fans for the past 7 years, and no one wants to have a failed GM/President on their staff talking about team moves and evaluating talent.

Terry Donahue, who essentially destroyed the Niners in exactly 2 years, got hired right after he was fired by us. :lol
There's plenty of guys who have fucked up tons of times who get hired by the NFL media.

An official with the Detroit Lions has confirmed that president Matt Millen has been fired as team president today.
While nothing is official yet, a source close to the situation said chief operating officer Tom Lewand and assistant general manager Martin Mayhew will split Millen's duties for the rest of the season. A permanent replacement for Millen is not expected to be named until after the end of the 2008 season.
At this point, the Lions have not announced whether a press conference will take place announcing the firing.
Yeah, IIRC he was pretty good as a commentator. If he goes back to doing that it'll be weird listening to him, though.FrenchMovieTheme said:i actually liked millen the comentator!

Zeke said:I'm wondering about Kyle he just reinjured his foot and Dallas signed another guard from the vikes I think, his time could be up in Dallas. Kinda of sucks tho I wasn't too big on the guy when he got here but he has performed pretty well since landing in Dallas.
Gaborn said:Give us Romo and we'll hand him right over.
Tamanon said:Wait.....I thought you were a Saints fan?
And trade Roy Williams to Jacksonville!
