I just watched an interview on NBC with Matt Millen - the lame duck GM of the Lions who was fired earlier this year. It was outstanding - he stood up, took all the blame and made no excuses. Much like Romeo did this year - shouldered everything. Very classy. That was refreshing to see. Now if we could only get the College football playoff... right Rob !!  |

What exactly could he say differently. The man went lost 97 games over 7 seasons as GM if you inlcude this season stats. He was terrible at drafts. The only person i think worse was Dwight Clark. the amazing thing is the Lions hired his right hand man to be the new GM.

I'm a huge fan of people who are modest when they succeed and hold their heads high when they fail. That dude showed big time character in that interview. |

I guess standing up and owning the mistakes when there is no place to hide does not impress me that much. Granted i did not see the interview but that dude should have been fired a long time ago.
