Link only, not a quotable site, last season tickets for this guy, he blew off the last home game, and won’t go again until either Ford or Millen (or both) are gone.

The Lions were headed for a blowout of the Chiefs, had ‘em down 19-0, then nearly lost the game. Had it not been for a small mental error by a KC receiver, the Chiefs might have won it with a no-time-left TD.

What happened instead is, Millen keeps his job for at least another year, and probably gets a raise. I don’t have the kind of money to get season tickets, but if I did, I wouldn’t. I’ve never been to a live game, and wouldn’t start now.

Nothing will help the Lions except a winning season, followed by another winning season and an earned trip to the Super Bowl (not just sitting in the stands, playing in it; not necessarily winning it, but playing in it). Without that, they’re just going to continue to be pathetic Honululu Blue and Silver losers.

Just revisited that story about the guy who didn’t use his last-ever season ticket seats, noticed the stat that under WC Fields, er, Ford, the Lions’ record has been 280-373-12, and his 31st losing season (out of 44). I guess now those numbers are 281-374-12.
