The Cubs of the NFL

The state's lovable losers are back in the news. It is not really anything big this time. Just a simple article I read or tried to read today in the Detroit Free Press. Read the interview with running back Tatum Bell here. Let's just say that I am not very impressed with the English Departments at DeSoto High School in Texas and Oklahoma State University. Bell graduated from both schools and still can not speak intelligible English. As Jules from Pulp Fiction would say, "ENGLISH, MOTHER******! DO-YOU-SPEAK-IT?" Just another disgrace for this pathetic franchise.

On a lighter note, my sons took me to a charity basketball game for an early father's day present. We were present at Caro High School for the contest involving some of The Cubs of the NFL. The Tuscola County 4-H All Stars lost to a group of six active and former Lions. Dan Orlovsky, Sean McHugh, Casey Fitzsimmons, Rob Rubick, Luther Ellis, and Cory Schlesinger treated the crowd to a Harlem Globetrotteresque type game. My oldest son was on the floor for awhile playing for the Lions, and he scored a basket. Funny thing is, the 2 points he scored may be more points than the 3 active Lions will score in 2008.

It was the first time I have been to one of the Lions charity basketball games. It was a nice relaxing family atmosphere. The boys had a wonderful time getting autographs and pictures. Since they had a wonderful time, so did I. Thank you boys for the present.

This just in -- Lions interested in Pacman Jones? --- and the hits keep coming for the Lions
