What Next?
Today is my break day from politics. When I read a headline that says Democrats in uproar over Biden, pardon of his son, nope, just nope. Like Trump is gonna pardon January 6 insurrectionists, so, whatever. Detroit Lions finished last year 12 and five. They had a much rougher schedule this year and I figured…

Happy Monday
It’s my blog and I can do what I want to, do what I want to, do what I want to…. No, that’s not how the song goes. Whatever. This is a politics and sports blog after all. The politics has been pretty depressing lately. I still have not watched any cable news since election…

So Nice
A break from politics and Trump for a day. We all need a break from Trump and hopefully that will happen to November. I have been a Detroit Tigers fan and a Detroit Lions fan since I was a kid. I have been an Edmonton Oilers fan since moving out here many years ago. Do…

Don’t Cry For Me
Just like that, the season is over. But what a wonderful ride. Back in 2021, the Lions were in shambles. Patricia and Quinn had tried their Patriot way and destroyed the team in doing so. The Lions brought in Holmes and “bite your kneecaps” Campbell. Campbell reflected the City of Detroit, with his style. Holmes…

32 Years
Back to the sleaze of politics, tomorrow. The last time the Detroit Lions won a playoff was 32 years ago. They beat Dallas badly that day. It seems appropriate that Dallas lost badly again yesterday, this time to Green Bay. The guy above, Aiden Hutchinson, was years away from being born. Bill Clinton was President.…

Good Weekend
Early start to the weekend. Woke up at two. Two in the morning. Saturday morning. Pub night cancelled Friday because it was too freaking cold. As I chirp this, it is 35 below. Does not matter if that is in Fahrenheit or Centigrade, it is freaking cold. A great weekend to stay indoors. The Oilers…

Wolverines And Lions
This is the flag of Michigan. This is going to be a very blue week in Michigan. The maize and blue Michigan Wolverines will be going after their first National Championship since 1997. Meanwhile the Honolulu blue Detroit Lions will be going for their first playoff win since 1991. I was born and raised and…

Robbed
The NFL 2023 season has been plagued with Referee controversies and last night’s Detroit-Dallas game raised it to Twilight Zone levels This was a game between two Super Bowl contenders playing for the second seed in the NFC. The second seed means an extra home game in the playoffs. Dallas came into the game with…

Not Same old Lions
Source Fairview Post – Photo By Gregory Shamus/Getty Image Taking a break from all the depressing news for today. The Detroit Lions are now 8-2. The last time they were 8-2 was back in 1962. Where were you in 62? They were down 12 points to the lowly Chicago Bears yesterday with 4 minutes left.…
