for the Detroit Lions.

The '76 Buccaneers just cracked open some vintage Billy Beer in celebration of having a team have a season even worse than the one they had 32 years ago, if only for the fact that those Bucs could only lose 14 games in a 14-game season.

0-16.

Damn.

That takes some sustained suckage...even the woebegone Saints of 1980 stumbled upon a win by accident in week 15.

The last 24 games for the Lions:  1-23

Starts to make you wonder if a team could possibly just be given the axe.  Seriously, what a disfunctional group of bastages...haha...

Well, let's give some honerable mentions to St. Louis and Kansas City for their "phenom" seasons with a standing-ohhhh for that Dallas game today.  I mean losing by 38 points to a lesser ranked team in the same division has got to hurt.   :rofl:

They should make that stadium the biggest Ford Dealership in the country.  It would do better.

and I would just like to take this time and thank the "Big Tuna" and say go Phins. Back in the playoffs since 2000 and better still knocking out the Patriots. At least I have one team I can cheer about!

Congrats also to the Falconi's.  Great turnaround year. May not do anything in the playoffs but nice not to be the doormat of the league again.  The first couple of times I saw Matt Ryan play this season, I thought that SOB plays just like a young Brett Favre.  NO...not comparing him to Favre except in his style of play.  He knows how to create something out of nothing. 

Two Aubies on the roster.  Eric Brock and long of tooth, Wayne Gandy.

My doctor told me I needed to stop masturbating.  I asked him why, and he said, "because I'm trying to examine you."

War Damn Falcons.  Almost got the bye but Carolina had to put up a field goal with seconds left to beat New Orleans and take the #2 seed with the bye instead.  It was very close.  They should be able to handle Arizona and their shitty D next week, but after that, anything is up for grabs and "any given sunday" applies.

Matt Ryan, Roddy White, and Michael "the burner" Turner have all exceeded expectations and are damn fun to watch!

I pulled up the Falcons roster and Michael Turner is listed at 5'10 and 244.  At freakin' running back!!!  That's sick.
