I'm so proud to welcome a new team to the 0-16 brotherhood along with my Lions. It's been real lonely at the bottom.

I also have to salute their ownership for somehow hitting a level of incompetence beyond "Keep Matt Millen as GM for way too long" and saying that they'll keep their head coach after an 0-16 season. Truly they are worthy rivals to the Lions both on and off the field!

Good point about the draft too, I mean no way any player turns down that #1 offer with all the money it inevitably contains, but man it's got to suck to go to the Browns. On the other hand, the last few times someone turned down playing for the team that drafted them #1 it was John Elway and Eli Manning, so maybe we'll see similar emergency backroom dealings in the next draft.

It's also worth noting that if you're super confident in your abilities you can become a true legend among a fanbase by turning around the team, hell Stafford's practically there for me and he hasn't even won a playoff game, just made the games more interesting to watch and created a sense that we have a shot in any given year.

Yeah, Caldwell's on the hotseat and he's gone 9-7 and would probably have made the playoffs if they'd just beaten the crappy Bengals, or Tate makes it literally half a yard further in the last play vs. Atlanta, or the clock is managed the way it actually probably should have been at the end of that game (even with the 10 second runoff Tate was down with 11 seconds on the clock, so if while they were looking at they play a dozen times they'd bothered to note the exact time he was down I feel like the Lions should have had one last snap to work with, and yes I'm still bitter about that but that's just Lions.txt in action).

Seeing that they want to keep Hue is hilarious.
