I wore a Lions stocking cap to Kroger this morning without thinking about it. Some older guy randomly said, "Go Lions," to me and my initial thought was go fuck yourself, guy. Then I remembered my hat. But fuck this terrible football team and miserable franchise.
In all honesty most of the time I see someone wearing Lions gear I assume they are doing it ironically
I certainly wasn't wearing it out of pride or support. When I used to do it in Chicago it was engender sympathy, but since I moved back to Michigan I usually just don't.
I know it won’t happen, but wouldn’t that be the first ever lions coach to get a job after the lions?
Dick Jauron was interim after they fired Mooch and later coached the Bill's. A couple of guys the 50s and 60s got AFL jobs (Steelers and Dolphins) before the merger. So kinda.
