Its official!!! Lions voted #1....

[MEL]

WORST!!!

ESPN magazine ran a article in where the fans rated every pro sports team in the country. Out of a total of 122 pro sports teams the Loins rated 122
dead last. Take all Basketball, Hockey,Baseball and Football teams and pick the very worst one and SUPRISE!!! Its the loins:dizzy: :cheeky-sm :dizzy: :lol: :help:
Even more suprising is that Old man Ford was rated as the #117 worse owner. I must protest that rank!!! He just has to be the very worst owner
Cant be 5 worse than him!!!:rolleyes:

Good news Pistons rated as the #5 franchise (no suprise)
Tigers rated as the #12 franchise
Wings rated as the #18 franchise
( I would have thought the wings/tigers should be reversed)

Cornbread Joe,AKA Matt Millen are you out there?

Its about time they got their due, LOL.

Anyway,, the top 10 are amazing. Sabres:confused:

[fasthunter]

So the "LOINS" are worst............Were they not cooked right??:lol:

[walleyeman2006]

lions being 122 not a shock....twins being in the top 20 ...ill hold a grudge for ever ...kirby pucket hit me with a baseball during batting practice at the old tiger stadium when i was 7...at least i have the ball

[Westlakedrive]

I believe the poll was based on fan satisfaction.
I just cant get no satisfaction.

On a positive note although unrelated Zumaya hit 100 mph 219 times the next closest pitcher was Farnsworth at 26. Go Tigers.

My girlfriend is a HUGE tiger nut!! I'm sure I'll be watching some games. I haven't seen one live in a while. Sounds like it will be fun.:)

I wish he'd sell the team to Davidson so we could get on a winning track....


Tigers rated as the #12 franchise
Wings rated as the #18 franchise

The Wings ain't that good anymore.....

[Blueump]

What?!?:confused:

The Lions actually WON something????:yikes:

Cornbread Joe,AKA Matt Millen are you out there?
Yeah yeah yeah...I'm here. The truth of the matter is that there is no sense in debating the Lions over all ranking of 122. The bottom line is they have been RANK!
In any case, football is my favorite sport. For Basketball and Hockey I can watch the home teams but rarely sit down and watch other games around the league. Baseball? Last year was the first year I watched a complete game since the strike. Football on the other hand I can sit down and watch any teams play any day of the week! It is definitely my favorite sport. The fact that I wish the Lions well, and follow the team only shows my dedication as a fan. In most years I could honestly say that I would rather watch the Lions lose than watch the Tigers win. The Tigers did start to get me back (a little) when they hired Trammel and Gibson, but even with the run they had last year... I still am more of a football fan.
Thanks for asking!

This is great news! The Lions finally have something for their empty trophy case.

When will they be awarding the Lions The Horses Posterior Trophy?

It is not a sad day for me. I know that the Lions organization has sucked. I don't wear blinders. I just admit openly that I am a football fan, and I still hope that one day they might turn things around. Expectations are a thing of the past. A wise man once said "without expectations there can be no disappointment". ;) I don't expect anything out of this team, but it sure would be nice to see them make the play offs one day. If they ever do, I can guarantee you that I will have watched every single game that year, and every game the year before.
Cornbread is what it is. It is merely a recipe for hope, and not one of expectation.

Look like the ticket prices and condition of the Joe is what bumped the Wings out of the top 10. Plus I found it interesting that the Twins stadium ranking was 120 when the Vikings was 122 when they play in the same stadium and the fact that the Twins managed to get that high of overall ranking with that bad of a stadium experience.

[Jason Adam]

Funny, the title preview on the threads page was: "Its official!!! Lions voted #1.... "

I already heard the story, so I was expecting the 122, but I thought it was funny for a second that it said #1... I guess they are #1 at being the worst...

That would not be fair competition as the Lions have had that sewed up for many, many moons, paleface!:lol:

New Lions fan chant:

"We suck, we know it, we're not afraid to show it...we suck, we know it, give us the lead, we'll blow it!"
