As real as it gets for preseason

Things start getting really interesting, and for real, in less than two weeks. On Sept.

Well, if the D plays like what I saw against the Colts, it should be a tough night for the Lions.

[Support The Team]

Lets all pull TOGETHER, and support our hometown team. I really thin that this will be a great year, and the defense will surprise alot of people. One must remember that the first string has not played that much. This offense will be so explosive that NO-ONE will outscore us. Let's see: Manning, addai, Harrison Wayne, Clark, Gonzo, and Saturday. Who can or will outscore us? Please do not say the Pats because Moss WILL ruin the team. Tom Brady is the most OVER--RATED QB of all time. Brady won 3 rings, but the D won those rings. Hey you STUPID Pat fans: Tell me where Brady gets the credit. He hans off, throws five yard passes, and that is it.

I absolutely LOVED this line:

"The Colts close the preseason Friday at Cincinnati, a game that figures to be an evening for backups."

No kidding... Cincy is down to backups at quite a few positions since they've lost so many players to the penal league, right?
