Living in the Detroit area all my life it is easy to tell that no matter how many practices that the Lions have with or without pads, it's not going to matter. Losing ways are the only way with this team. From the days with Barry Sanders to this day, there is nothing this team can do to win it's fans......but yet we still watch and sell out every game. Keep eating the cornbread.

Great hockey, yes, but is anyone watching?
Well, Bettman gets what Bettman wants, and I guess he wanted nobody to watch. Luckily here in the Detroit area we are privliged to get CBC coverage. Coverage from brodcasters who know the ins and outs of the game, not a brodcast crew who is waiting for football season to start, or who ESPN wouldn't let cover a baseball game. As for our goat Bettmen ..... He got the deal with OLN, so I think now he needs to market the game to markets like Lifetime, Oxygen, and hell maybe a Spanish talk station. I figure if he is going to limit coverage, he might as well put games on other channels that I and everybody else doesn't give two craps about!
