[GOAT]

I will second that! Thruster always kept things in perspective.

Cut it out, cut it out! You're liable to make a grown man blush here.

But seriously I'd like to thank the members of the Academy, my family, my friends....

I do try to keep things in perspective. I'm a dyed-in-the-wool fan; I'll admit it. But like so many members of this board we can also be critical of this team and not get swept up in an upswell of emotion. We discuss. We have observations. We have suggestions [[not that any of us think Mayhew or Schwartz reads any of this). And quite frankly we can disagree until monkeys fly out of our collective asses.

It was extremely frustrating to watch this team at times. I'm thankful I wear lace-up shoes on Sunday because if not I would've been liable to heave a loafer at the flat screen. But I'd much rather discuss, bitch, and cheer for this Lions team with my Dyes friends than any other NFL team around.
