Accordingly, I demand that the admins update the Lions' logo on their icon board so that I can add the new, WINNING, logo.

At this point, I don't even see the point of playing the games - just set up the playoff brackets now.

1. If the Vikings had gotten Brett Favor, you would have made it...

...now you just have to watch Matthew Stafford fizzle out...sorry, but it's gonna happen.

2. Losing every game with Stafford vs. losing every game with Kitna

would still be an improvement (can't stand Kitna). I wonder what Kitna is going to do with his 8000 square foot house, and who will attend his prayer meetings?

4. I'm willing to bet Matt-y from Gawgia will be just as much a

bible thumper.

3. Well hell why not?

Every year in DC we KNOW the Skins are going to win the SB......Actually who knows these days. Seriously after seeing Arizona in the SB this past year, I am inclined to think the Lions COULD do something...

5. That's the spirit!

With Millen gone, anything can happen.

6. Sorry your 'Wings got hosed TWICE the other night, LisaM. nt

7. Yeah, that was awful, but did you see LAST night?

About the only perk of living on the West Coast is getting to see all of the late playoff games.

I must say, I'm tired of the Ducks chirping about how physical the Wings are playing. That's THEIR game and they don't like when the Wings match it?

That said, they are a tough team and I hope we can wear them down. I have no idea how they ended up being the 8th seed.
