As a resident of Michigan and Lion "fan" I consider Millen to be a joke and his bungling of the hiring process is just further proof. I could go on and on about all of the reasons but just check the Lions record with him at the helm and the quality citizen-players he's screwed while achieving that pathetic record. He is in a world that plays by rules, the NFL rule was that he interview minorities. He made no good faith effort to do that instead putting all of his cards on Mariucci, who wasn't a sure thing to come to Detroit. In this case, I am happy to see the NFL slap him.

As a diehard, and usually dying, Saints fan, I have no connection to this matter. But if the minority coaches turned down the offer of an interview, why should the Lions be penalized? This is PC garbage.
