I would also like to add that, whatever love affair that America has with the Lions while they are still fresh and new, count me out of it.
I think they are a dirty, arrogant team that is coached to be dirty and arrogant and has no respect for their opponents despite no historical accomplishments of their own. I think it’s been easy for them to look good with little adversity. I think if they face real adversity — a 2 TD deficit in a playoff game, for instance, the panic and finger pointing will set in.
Either way, if we don’t beat them in January, I won’t be among those rooting for them to end the drought. I’ll hope they get their hearts ripped out of their chests again.
