KOK, my good friend, the way YE OLE sees it "bottoming out" wouldn't necessarily help this team. The Lions as you point out, at least, got some pieces to work with. However, that franchise QB, they got in Stafford threw fewer TD's and more INT's than Fitzcannon last year. After one 10-6 season that ended in them getting pounded by the Saints in a wildcard game, they went right back to 4-12. Some franchises, just can't seem to consistently put a winning product on the field to save their life, regardless of having top draft choices year in and year out. Sadly, our beloved organization is in that group... and whether we see a 2-14 or a 7-9 type season next year, YE OLE doesn't see much hope in that changing.

The WR currently on the roster: Stevie Johnson, TJ Graham, Chris Hogan, Kevin Elliot, and Marcus Easley. Aside from Stevie the entire remaining roster of WR's have a combined 41 catches in their illustrious NFL careers. In fairness, that doesn't include Brad Smith. YE OLE has to believe a guy like Gibson could've played some role in slots 2-5 behind Stevie.

Wooderson, my good fellow, Manny Lawson is THE WHIP. That is all we need know!

Captain, my good friend, bravo! Jolly good show!

YE OLE would like to present #69 in your program/#1 in our hearts: Marcus Spriggs

Replace "B-Lo" with "work" and "coaches" with "clients" and this is exactly what YE OLE told the Mrs. when he left the house this morning!

Indeed... YE OLE's good friend Solomon Wilcots just called and said his sources say he is headed to the BUFFALO BEEEEEEEEEEELS

Jumbalaya, my good friend, you are spot on per usual. YE OLE is perfectly willing to give Marrone a fair shake here, but we've heard all of these praises heaped on the likes of every one of these chaps from Gregg "High School" Williams to THE CHANIMAL. Bottom line, all Marrone has proven is that he can lead Syracuse to 8-5. What YE OLE does not like is jettisoning players left and right. The guys we're letting go may not have been great, but if we have to spend several draft picks to replace their positions on the roster, we're not going to improve. Not bringing back Nelson is especially disappointing.

Can't nobody cover Rrrrrrandy Moss

Hello Kelsay setting the edge!

Perhaps YE OLE is misunderstanding the point here, but when Detroit hosted the SuperBowl in Feb. 2006, it was because Ford Field was "shiny new" which harkens back to zow2's point. If you build it, they will come gents!

mjt, my good friend, you are spot on per usual. If only they could've combined Randy Moss' tools with Tim Anderson's lunch pail.

Speaking of which, didn't someone around here uncover a few pages of Wanny's old paybooks, and they read something like "They MUST NOT SCORE!" or some such nonsense. YE OLE uttered that phrase everytime someone was hanging 50 on us.

Can't nobody cover Rrrrrrrandy Moss!

Out of this group of QB's outside of Geno Smith, YE OLE likes Manuel the best. YE OLE was feeling pretty sick to his stomach when folks were talking like we were gonna run out and get Nassib.

Are you suggesting pairing Werner with SUPER MARIO?

One can only hope Commish. If not, let em know you mean business and drop that permanent BAN HAMMER on them!

The offensive system that THE PILL rolled out was, indeed, a sight to see. He would've gotten away with it too, if it wasn't for McFumbles

Jim, my good friend, Brady has admittedly put up hall of fame numbers throughout his career. That is undeniable. Logically, however, that is a separate issue from spygate. Brady can, in fact, be a great QB who was also assisted by unethical activities that violated the rules of the game. It is a factual statement that Brady has not won a SB since 2004 and not since they were outted for having recorded team walk throughs, signals, etc. Would Brady and the Pats have beaten the Rams in '01 had they not covertly filmed their walk through? Who knows... the game was won by a last second FG as is. Brady is certainly a first ballot hall of famer regardless of our personal opinions of him and the Patriots organization, but he would do a lot for his legacy to win a SB post spygate.

We should acquire both Matt "Errol" Flynn and Joe Flacco, for posterity sake of course.

Matt "Errol" Flynn is THE WHIP! FACT!
