Tonight (8/21) at 9 ET on Fox.

FWIW, Tebow took a hit from former Hawkeye Abdul Hodge in last Sunday's game, and has injured ribs. He was able to practice Thurs wearing a flak jacket. Don't know what that means as far as tonight's game.

Tebow was held out.

The LIONS are getting better..... Expecting them to be playoff ready next year and surprise people this year. I know this sounds crazy, but they have a developed a core for a Super Bowl run in the next few years. YES the LIONS....

I don't think Ford is willing to financially or emotionally invest to win a super bowl. He will be in the grave before it happens.

Ford is becoming a little more irrelevant now that they have a capable GM and coaching staff. Mayhew has been MONEY at decision-making pretty much since day 1. He had a front-row seat at the Millen disaster, so he knows exactly what NOT to do. I am definitely loving the direction of this team, and I believe they are on the right trajectory as well. A win AT Chicago in week 1 would do a lot for this young team.

Get healthy LOU!!!

Overheard a conversation including John Fetzer about the 1968 World Series. He spoke about what it took to win, $$$$$$. He said he would never do it again.He might improve, but I don't think Ford has ever, and never will invest what it takes to win it all.
