His brother is a really good guy. Does fundraises for kids with Austism.
0-4 is still so painful. I get really nervous when I think they have a chance to go back.
Congrats on the big win, I wasn’t surprised. Campbell’s a good coach, reminds me of Cowher.
Congrats to the Lions fans and the bold dog pickers!
I have a few dogs (Pit, GB, LV, Mia) coming up on Sunday... ๐ค๐ป
Detroit pulled this out.
Chiefs had enough chances but the Lions defense held them back.
It could be the Lions year to win the division without Aaron Rodgers in Green Bay.
Lions will only get better, still a lot of things to clean up, but they’re fixable.
I think Gibbs is going to be a star running back.
Something about that first game of the season. Detroit played Philadelphia last year and the Eagles won by the skin of their teeth. It one of the reasons I picked Detroit to win last night.
Got two underdogs left in my picks, Steelers and Jets.
It’s clear the yellow gloves didn’t work so well with some of the beautiful passes that were thrown.
I was toying with the idea of the Jets, but felt that I had too many already for my own good!
I almost chickened out on the Detroit pick.
Awwzzz. U Nedz a hugz.๐
Go Lions!๐๐บ๐ป
Hey now!๐
Someone named PICK09032023 missed making the pick on time in Impy's Yahoo group. And someone named PINHEADS OF DOOM over at Texas Booster's yahoo group #384 either went KC or missed the pick.
We've got 31 players total. Only 3 picked the Lions.
You could do us all a favor and take away both Keseyz. Not withstanding their talents there a couple of retards.
A-hole Mike Tirico said that the Lions should have an asterisk after the W.
Just keep doubting us, guys.
Dan Campbell is typically known for his long-winded responses, often delving into significant detail when addressing questions. However, that wasnโt the case when asked for his thoughts on Tiricoโs comments. On this occasion, Campbell opted for brevity in his response.
โWell, is there an asterisk next to our 1-0?โ Campbell quipped during a Friday afternoon conference call.
Whew. Straight to the point, right?
KC has the best QB in football and a brilliant Hall of Fame head coach. No asterisk here. We have a lot of losses that have asterisks in them as well. Completed catch rule, 10-second runoff, cowboys PI in the playoffs, batted ball in end zone of Seattle, etc...

Heck I remember when the Cowboys picked off Munson late in the game in 1970, when it looked like the Lions were going to pull it out, but ended up losing 5-0. That was the first NFL game I distinctly remember watching as a boy.

There is almost always a lot ‘gut feel’ in my underdog picks, I try to stay with them when I get cold feet...
