re: Do you have any grumpy opinions about modern life?

Posted by The Detroit Lions on 2/23/25 at 9:05 pm

absolutely hate:

1. start/stop features, especially when I can't permanently disable the feature

2. 4 and 6 cylinder turbo charged anything. make the 4-->6 and 6--->8 cylinder engine like it used to be

3. telephone customer service. holy frick these people are the epitome of the "it's not my job" generation

I felt this one coming--almost like 1/9/12.

Not as bad as SF last year, but this was still fricking embarrassing.

Injuries caught up to us, but Goff is not and will never be the answer.

Props to Jayden Daniels, absolute superstar. Thank God the Bears didn't draft him.

Their offense is embarrassingly bad. Their schedule was even worse. Props to Denbrock for the play-calling though. No talent on offense.

there are some great end of the year lease deals going on

honda and hyundai are your best bets

dont be afraid to negotiate on lease deals. push for zero down and go from there

the advertised price is not the best price. and make sure to shop around. let the dealer know youre going to other dealerships and will settle for the best price

you don't need a dual threat QB when your WRs can get separation

Shout-out to Pediment/Advocate's 100 Years in Death Valley book

Posted by The Detroit Lions on 11/17/24 at 3:35 pm

I pre-ordered the book about five months ago, moved during that time and forgot to update my shipping address.

It was already on the way to my old address so I figured I would email them and see what happens.

I'm at a point where I have zero confidence in any sort of customer service, but I was pleasantly surprised:

They expressed shipped a new book to my updated address. So some good news for an otherwise miserable weekend.

Here's the LINK (and btw the book is gorgeous).

i love Home Depot for this one reason:

their customer service number connects me to someone in the motherfricking USA.

bonus points: it doesn't take an hour to connect and they actually solve the fricking problem.

crazy concept.

Damn I Missed Have a NASTY Defense

Posted by The Detroit Lions on 10/13/24 at 4:41 am

I'm talking about that guaranteed 3 and out defense of the 2000's.

It felt great knowing our defense could be relied on to keep the game within reach.

re: On news of NYJ Saleh's firing. Why do CF coaches get buyouts and not NFL?

Posted by The Detroit Lions on 10/13/24 at 4:38 am

Saleh was a defensive coordinator HOPING land a head coaching job.

These college coaches get wined, dined, and begged to come be the ball coach.

HC in the NFL is a terminal/pinnacle/apex job in the coaching pyramid.
