I'm reading somewhere in one of the scabby Detroit newspapers that the Lions actually look good. I don't finish the sentence before I click away from the story.
After two exhibition games some moron is deciding that the Lions -- the worst pro sports franchise in history (apologies to the St. Louis Browns, the NFL Cardinals and a few others) -- actually look competitive.
Before we get crazy, let's wait until the regular season, OK, chum?
I've tasted the Kool-Aid before. No more.
I'm not following this bunch of nitwits till the Lions are OFFICIALLY in the Super Bowl. That means the bastards have to be in the f'ing game.
Wake me up when that happens, OK?
As for the Tigers, I've been off the bandwagon for a while now. I see that the team is basically thinking about next year. They should have done that earlier in the season.
I would have loved for this group to dump Renteria and Sheffield. I was watching the Mets play the Pirates this week, and the Bucs' shortstop, Jack Wilson, can really pick it. He makes Renteria look as if he's using a walker.
Wilson's hitting .288 in 80-some games. He's been hurt, OK, but he still has more range than Edgar the Elephant. Renteria is hitting .268, and for most of the season he has failed in clutch spots.
You see, I'm afraid, scared actually, that anything positive accomplished by Renteria and Sheffield will make the Tigers keep them for next year. That's what happened with that pig, Pudge Rodriguez, and he was terrible for this team.
The Tigers need to retool. The Lions need to relocate, to another country, hopefully.
When does the hockey season start? I can't wait for the Wings to hit the ice.
