Forward down the field. A charging team that will not yield. And when the Blue and Silver wave, stand and cheer the brave! -Gridron Heroes
Public Service Announcement: Ok, here we go! First thing’s first. I’m no draftnik. I know more about William Howard Taftnik. But I do know this, I know the Detroit Lions needed help at quarterback. I’m not so sure they drafted the right one, but they needed one just the same. They’ve needed one for a long time. They’ve needed one for a very long time.
Take note all you Mel Kiper Jr.’s out there, the last time that a Lions’ quarterback was chosen to the Pro Bowl was back in 1971. In 1971, Charles Manson and three female “Family” members are found guilty of Tate-LaBianca murders, Evel Knievel set a world record jumping 19 cars, Brown Sugar was playing on the radio, John Madden was a 35-year-old head coach with the Raiders and Greg Landry was standing behind center at old Tigers Stadium.
Take note of this well, the only time that a Lions’ player led the NFL in touchdown passes was way back in 1951. In 1951, I Love Lucy debuted on CBS, The Catcher in the Rye is first published, Joltin’ Joe DiMaggio played in his final career regular season game and Bobby Layne was standing behind center at old Tigers Stadium.

Peace out homies. Six two and Even!
