No self respecting Lions fan would watch

NFL Football at its best. NFL Football at its craziest.
Have you heard? Matt Millen, former big time losing GM of the Detroit Lions, may return to TV as a football analyst. Hard to believe since he knew nothing about football and proved in many years in a row.
Rumor has it that they are looking for a wide receiver to be the other analyst in the booth. That is a joke, ok, sorry if you are a Lions fan. Wait a minute, you can’t be, there are no Lions fans left in the world, except me.
Oh, and by the way, there are no self respecting Lions fans, so what does Matt have to worry about.
But maybe everybody can just forget about all that and he’ll make a TV comeback. NBC will formally announce Monday that Millen — who appeared in the network’s studio Saturday — will join NBC’s Super Bowl coverage. On that show Saturday, Millen suggested he wasn’t initially qualified for his job — and deserved to be fired.
NBC Sports Chairman Dick Ebersol, in a statement, said “many of us have been blessed with second chances” but Millen was picked up because he’s “one of the very best football broadcasters of his generation.”
