Did you know in the history of this franchise they’ve never had back to back double digit win seasons? Maybe start there and move forward and then we’ll see.
And maybe host a playoff game more than once every 30 years! God willing maybe even win one!
This thread is absolutely hilarious to read now
You wanna Triple Down on this thread?
It went awesome when you Doubled Down
I knew it, but knowing wasn’t enough. I still lost patience with them.
My new culture is “when does the tanking end?”
Mine is and always has been “Win, win…WIN”
I love my Lions team just as much as you do @JadedLionsFan
…and I hurt just as much as you do when we lose.
I’m glad you can find some humor in my excessive, and sometimes ignorant optimism.
strong text
I think his humor is not that….it’s the ones who wanna call out other fans for not sharing the same level of optimism. Pessimism is present…but most fans are more of “prove it” or “show me”….they will believe it when they start seeing the team WIN!
I love your posting here and I’m glad you can roll with someone calling out your posts like that.
That said, there’s always the year after next.
Looking at my post in this thread, I acknowledged all the issues but still called it a 7 win team
Time to face the truth
I’m just another Charlie Brown type fan
Ah well lesson learned
But, what if they win Sunday?
Then go on a small run?
Yes!
I’ve gone from wary, disappointed, angry and bitter to bitter, angry, wary and disappointed!
What the heck’s wrong with us?!
Well, there’s probably a number of things wrong with most of us
But there are other forums for those issues …
Here we dabble in hope and bitterness

You’re missing the acceptance stage!! That’s where the pure joy and laughter begins!!
denial, anger, bargaining, depression, acceptance - Everyone is on a different journey, haha
It take a lot of GRIT to make it though all 5 stages!
This is the only reason I’m still here.
Yes!

I think it’s called being LIONIZED
Oof, thanks for bringing up that memory. That was probably the most hopeful I was as a Lions fan, I thought Mooch was the next great coach
Garcia was going to save a shitty team.
Then, Kitna was going to save a shitty team. Then #1oa was gonna save the day, enter Matthew Stafford, the nearly unanimous savior.
Sucked.
Sucked.
Sucked.
Weird how all 3 played well for other teams, and all 3 went the pro bowl and playoffs.
Kind of like Goff.
Hmm. Probably just a coincidence they all sucked here.
