sort of. This is a snippit from a column in the Free Press about my woeful Lions and how they are playing like an old kids game....read on for the reference:

"A bad team playing badly
I have never called for a man to be fired in this column, and I won’t start now. Sports figures have dignity and families, too, and if they’re gonna get the ax, they should hear it from a boss, not me.


But I can explain why fans are downright disgusted with Millen, Ford and all the rest. Watching the Lions this season is like watching a kid’s game of electric football. You throw the switch and the little men move, maybe even move in the right direction. But they don’t make anything happen. They just hum around. Occasionally, one gets stuck in the corner, spinning aimlessly. This would be a Lions cornerback.
In three losses this year, Detroit has caused one turnover. In three weeks, it has managed three paltry sacks.


The rest of the time, the Lions run around, they dive at that tackle, they just miss that pass. But they don’t make plays. Not the kind that win games.


Even Michael Strahan, the new Fox studio analyst, said Sunday that the Lions “don’t want to play.”


That’s no cynical reporter, folks. That’s an ex-player who just got fitted for a Super Bowl ring.


The Lions won’t be seeing rings anytime soon. Rod Marinelli is an earnest coach, but he has the stunned look of a man who just discovered he’s on the wrong train. Character players, which he insists upon, are fine. But winning football teams are a blend of character, talent, rascals and monsters. The Lions are woefully short.


So it was nice of Bill Ford Jr. to state the obvious. But you can fire the GM, you’ll still have the team. You can fire the team, you’ll still have the owner. You can fire the owner, and you’ll have a good start.


But you can’t fire the owner.


You see our problem."
