What were you thinking?


What were you thinking Jon Kitna? Did you think that you were a quality starting quarterback in the NFL? Mr. Kitna you are sadly mistaken. I can't believe that after that great comeback by the Lions, Kitna could blow a game like that. The Lions were down 21-0 and turned it on in the second half. A couple of stalled drives cut the league from 21-0 to 21-9. A safety, and 2 great plays by Calvin Johnson gave the Lions a 25-24 lead with 6 minutes left in the game. Ford Field went from a stadium of disgust, to a stadium of joy after watching the comeback. Fans were going crazy, people were starting to believe. Then Kitna took over. One throw for a pick and return, then another interception, then another pick for a touchdown. The air deflated at Ford Field. People left the stadium bitter, asking why us? You know why? Because we continue to be fooled into believing that we could be that team that makes a run. We could be that team that upsets the powerhouses in the NFL. We could be the team that other teams fear. Then players like Jon Kitna, Brian Kelly, and Leigh Bodden take over. Yeah, I didn't have enough energy to mention how bad the Lion's secondary played. Rod Marinelli will tell us he'll study the tape. Save your time Rod, this team can't put it together for 60 minutes. I don't know if they ever will.

even their excuses don't make sense. i'm still confused by kitna saying he tried throw a pump fake on charles woodson and then throw the ball to cj's back shoulder. also, feel free to tell me dizon and foster suck. don't tell me "we just couldn't get dizon in the game", or "we needed help on the left end". just say they suck. it's ok. feelings were made to be hurt.

It's time to stop being mad at Ford, Millen, Kitna, etc. We know that they are imposters. Itis time to be mad at the fans to continue to buy tickets.
By the way, will someone call Gardner White Furniture and tell them how stupid they were for buying 4500 tickets to prevent a blackout?

Popsb I have a problem with that. While I can understand the concept of the idea that if nobody buys tickets a message will be sent. However as a season ticket holder I would never do that unless you could guarantee me that everyone else would do the same, and that it would work. While I am a Lions fan, I also like going to the games to see the other teams, and stars of the NFL.
