*** OFFICIAL 2007 DETROIT LIONS PLAYOFF THREAD ***

[damaniac]

Agree with thedeezy on Detroit blowing up (in a good way, we've had many of the bad variety before) if the Lions go anywhere. It's really a great sports town, we love our hockey and our Pistons, probably the Tigers more although it hasn't shown...but really football is first. It would be great to finally have a pro team to match the enthusiasm.

I have a home in Troy, Michigan. I have been following the lions every Sunday for 25 years now. The last time they really did anything was when Wayne Fontes was the coach and Redskins blistered there azz in playoffs lke 16 years ago or something. Anyway, this is the first season that I have been out of town the whole time so far and no where else televises the games. It has been such a nightmare rooting for a loser team your whole life then leaving the state and having them play like they have.
