I'm not trying to be a cheerleader for the worse sports franchise ever...the Detroit Lions...

But after viewing some of the highlights of yesterdays games, and others over the last few years, I am beginning to think the NFL is turning into a predetermined joke. Maybe having a franchise built on years of futility means having to get flagged for barely touching an opposing teams jersey....whereas the "elites" of the league get away with molestation....with the blessings of the leagues hierarchy, their enablers in stripes....and of course the bottom feeding media.

I like to watch a hard-hitting football game as much as the next guy...only it would be more competitive, if not more realistic, if it were officiated a little more, shall we say,..."fair and balanced?"

The Lingerie Football League is looking more credible(not to mention...more entertaining).

In the NFL, market size (AKA: the number of TV viewers) rules!

The Lions are hampered by a weak market but their worst enemy is their owners.

And, yes, i’m a Lions fan.

"I am beginning to think the NFL is turning into a predetermined joke..."

I came to that conclusion years ago (and I was born and raised a Steeler fan in the outskirts of Pittsburgh).

My beliefs were reinforced when I recently read this book...

Saw that Lingerie League for the first time this weekend, those gals were doing some hitting! Plus, playing in bikini’s and shoulder pads, basically. Highly entertaining, to say the least.

I dont know. They Cowboys have had back to back “excessive” celebration penalties after TD’s that led to great field position. Sure hope the Titans and Vikings players’ feelings didnt get hurt.

On the other hand, Im not sure the league actually likes the Cowboys.

We all remember the Stealers getting a Super Bowl of Seattle.
