The Coach Schwartzbewithyou is certainly saying all the right things to impress me so far. Then again, don't they all? I am just glad they pulled the trigger on who they wanted so they can get on with hiring assistants and scouting for the draft. Can we interest anyone in a really expensive #1 pick? Please? Nope, we are probably stuck with it. Let the great QB vs. O-line vs. defense debate commence.

It doesn't matter as long as WCF is in charge. Same losers until he is out of that office.
Hey--the east side of the state isn't all that bad. Some of your favorite relatives live here!!!! Although, not really true Lions fans.....
West side, best side!!
West coast, best!!

Every new coach experience for the Lions is like a Mitch Albom story; after not too long, it's like the one you didn't link: The City Where the Sirens Never Sleep.
