Ahhhhhhhh Xmas time. No better time of the year. Two years ago, I wouldn’t have said that. I was still a bit younger and selfish and felt like XMAS wasn’t a holiday for older folks, but just little kiddies who huddle over the tree in the morning like I used to do to open gifts. [...]

December 28th, 2008 · No Comments · Sports
Man…I got about 5 calls from the 4th quarter on till the end of that Lions game. We went 0-16. What do you want me to say HUH? We successfully became the worst franchise of all-time and now all you other team fans can talk all the nonsense you want about me at any point.
But, [...]
