I had to watch the last few minutes of the game to see if the rest of you will be in a good mood or not! That last play was something else! I actually thought they would kick and slap the ball all the way down the field to the Lion's endzone! But it's a win and now vikings fans can watch the uncalled 'facemask' over and over all week!
With the wife screaming and jumping around Lola and I did not get our nap. good to see they held them off in the end.
Lucky, lucky, lucky................that's all I really have to say about that outcome. LUCKY!!! :o But a win is a win. Now in order to make the playoffs they have to win 2 of the next 3. Raiders, Chargers, and then the Pack. Still a tough schedule. I am not sure if the 2011 Lions showed up today or the 2009 Lions showed up. I guess the 2011 Lions showed because of the win. If it was the 2009 Lions, it would have been another loss. Still lucky.
BD ;D
Lots of people think fishing is just luck! I think the Lions will win all the rest of their games in a surprising, gutsy effort!
Hey BD, I don't mean to gloat to early, but does this quote sound familar?
"If the Lions tank again this year, I will gloat till the cows come home. But if they win, you can gloat till the cows come home. And I'll man up and take it. I actually hope you can be the guy that says, "BD, I told you so". I hope you and bigjc are those guys. I say they won't make 8 and 8. The goal should be higher than that..........like..........make the playoffs. I say: Go Lions and good luck because that's what I think they'll need to make the playoffs. If the Lions make the playoffs, I'll be eating more than my hat."
Now I am not suggesting that they are playoff material just yet, In fact I think they are probably not. And if they sqeek into the playoffs, they will likely get creamed, but they have already pulled of (miraculously) 8 wins, and I would be money they will get at least one more. Ok maybe not cash, but I would certainly be a fishing trip!
Hope is a great thing.
