Lions Find Possible Replacement QB For Next Year
Last Updated on Monday, 22 December 2008 02:31 Written by admin Monday, 22 December 2008 02:28
The Detroit Lions released a statement Monday stating they would be interested in bringing in Muntadhar al-Zeidi, the shoe throwing assailant of President Bush, for a tryout for next seasons squad. Al-Zeidi’s trial on charges of assaulting a foreign leader is scheduled to begin Dec. 31 and a conviction would carry a sentence of up to two years in prison. The prime minister’s office said last week that al-Zeidi had written a letter of apology and asked al-Maliki to recommend a pardon. If pardoned, Lions owner William Clay Ford said he would look at al-Zeidi as possible competition to current QB Dan Orlovsky. “He had great form on his throw, and had a good release point, also his velocity was great, but his accuracy could use a little help,” Ford said when asked about al-Zeidi. When questions were raised about al-Zeidi’s size and ability to handle pressure, Ford said, “Look at the way he was able to get the second shoe thrown with security and Secret Service men in his face, and it took like 4 guys to take him down, that shows a lot of heart and determination.” This gives Lions fans something to look forward to, on the brink of the first ever, Defeated Season. Attenpts to reach al-Zeidi were unsuccessful as prision officials said he was, “tied up” and “unable to comment at this time.”
Moves like this are what make the Lions great. I think they may still have Matt Millen running things on the DL out there in Detroit. I hear this al-Zeidi guy is the Mike Vick of the Middle East…hope he gets a pardon, the Lions sure could use the help.

The Detroit Lions, who have already made history by starting their NFL season 0 -15 have a chance to make history unlike any other team has made history. They have a chance at becoming The Perfect Losers. To be alive during this improbable run, it sure is amazing. Now we just need the Packers to play nice in week 17 and make history happen. Santa if your out there, this is all I want for Christmas…a perfect 0 under my Christmas Tree.

This is the girl my brother is hooking up with. She does some modeling work on the side. Should my brother make her his Trophy Wife??
Damn, find out if she’s into brothers, because if he passes on her, you might want to make a run at that. I would make her my trophy wife, but she would have to bring the blonde with her into the relationship!

Lendale should know better to disrespect a team you may have to face again in the playoffs. The Steelers are going to be gunning for him now. I did notice that White does have really good foot work. Could he end up on Dancing With The Stars this offseason??

Last week, in an interview with ESPN’s Bill Simmons, NBA commissioner David Stern made the following admission: “I wish we hadn’t had the Vancouver experience,” he said. “Great city, and we disappointed them and we disappointed ourselves.”
Stern, of course, was referring to the Vancouver Grizzlies basketball franchise, which floundered at GM Place for six seasons before limping off to Memphis in 2001. He regrets not investing more NBA dollars selling basketball to Vancouver sports fans, who are more familiar with slapshots and bodychecks than slamdunks and bounce passes.
