The Detroit Lions wish to destroy the Little Caesar's Bowl (and show its hatred of America) with a bowl game of its own.
The Detroit Lions hate America. This was proven when Nickelback was the halftime show a few Thanksgiving Day games ago.

ESPN reports that the Lions are planning to start up and run...

Detroit Lions battle shaping up at OLB?
After the Detroit Lions set up Stephen Tulloch, DeAndre Levy and Justin Durant as their starting linebackers two seasons ago, I (and a lot of other observers) never thought that the positions would be a question mark so soon. The Lions failed to re-sign Durant this off season and while middle linebacker Stephen Tulloch is playing under a long-term deal and DeAndre Levy has a new...

Free agents safety Charles Woodson is ‘open’ to the possibility to playing in Detroit and the team could have a very good tandem along with Louis Delmas.

Detroit Lions’ Schwartz, Mayhew still looking for the pony
Detroit Lions DE Ronnell Lewis tweeted an apology to fans for his part in an incident in Norman, OK last month. Lewis used Twitter to apologize to “everyone” and by that I presume he means fans, coaches, management and his teammates. He claims to have learned from his adventure and seems to commit to the idea that it won’t happen again. Good enough.
With his Tweets,...
