Lions Land Hard Knocks on HBO

Clearly an attempt to throw off Bobby Layne’s ghost.

Sheila, it wasn’t a curse ON the Fords, it’s that we curse AT the Fords…

All that shit should be worth at least one missile strike to nfl headquarters

My inside sources have told me that Sheila spent some time with the EA Sports video game team before making the change. They sold her on the idea of taking away something that’s always been there, then reintroducing it years later as something “new.”

If they win a Super Bowl under her command I would be all for it

If they do that, I’ll chisel Hamp over Ford my damn self.

A playoff win gets the Field changed to Hamp Field and a statue of Dan Campbell built.

A super bowl, my mind can’t even process what would happen, lol

You can’t spell championship without HAMP.

Without any context of this picture:

It appears to me that Hockenson- just landed a Cessna single prop plane in Miami, after island hopping 200 lbs of Pablo Escobar’s purest Columbian cocaine, to meet the pick up - “Mitch” - at a local farmers market.

Blinded by the light,
revved up like a deuce,
another runner in the night

Gotta love that hair!! @BigNatty is missing out.

Maybe Hock is getting the transition ready to become an NCAA female swimmer in case he keeps getting injured in football. I kid, I kid.

He keeps this up, he may get cut or traded. You’d think with those big ass game checks the guy would splurge for some friggin’ razors. Geeez

When the broadcast starts and when people see how cool it is to be a Lions fan, there will be a rush for tickets and jerseys, so we need to react in time.
If the Patriots or some other club wins ten titles, it will never be a cult club like the Lions.
Next year a rush of free agents to the club, everyone will want to be famous and part of the Lions.

In reality I am sure 95% of NFL fans outside Michigan let out a collective groan and rolled their eyes when this was announced.

Most of them were like “Watching the Lions once a year on Thanksgiving is MORE than enough”

I watched all the Lions games and a lot of them were exciting, people don’t know what they’re missing,
This year will be even more exciting.
HBO did not choose us for no reason.

All True. All changing. This is part of it. I’ll be watching my first ever episode of Hard Knocks.
Dan Campbell is the MF’n man. Most important dude in our organization, closely followed by Brad. LOVE our guys. Love our situation…and next year…LOVE our record!

Now the anticipation turns to Hard Knocks.

  • MC/DC
  • Female owner (Sheila Ford Hamp)
  • Hometown #2 overall draft pick (Aiden)
  • Charismatic Cancer survivor (John Paschal)
  • Jeff Okuda/Romeo Okwara/Jamo - injury recoveries
  • Jamaal Williams!
  • HBCU Jackson St. (James Williams)(…and Deion)
  • Hockenson has some big screen charm
  • Aaron Glenn/Aubrey Pleasant will become household names for NFL fans
  • The large Nigerian presence we have on the Lions roster

Sooooo many story lines! There won’t be enough air time to show everything but the producers should love the buffet of interesting personalities. I don’t think it could’ve happened at a better time for the Lions…than year two of this new leadership. The NFL world is about to take notice of what is brewing here in Detroit.
