Your take is perfect.<br /><br />And yeah, I get it - totally - when you talk about not knowing how to be a fan right now. That's something that I've struggled with too, and it's one of the reasons why my Lions writing slacked off a bit. I think I've fought through that now, but I think it's going to create a new type of fan schizophrenia, fraught with its own fragilities and weird issues that is going to keep me busy as a writer for a lot of the season, but what the hell, it wouldn't be Lions football without SOME weirdness and epic hand-wring, now would it?Neilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16300561079216508635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3580115438716980446.post-31507462431599171542011-05-20T15:01:07.140-04:002011-05-20T15:01:07.140-04:00Yeah, Mike, I've actually had the same thought...Yeah, Mike, I've actually had the same thought.

Half madman, half analysis, all ...Great post, Neil. Half madman, half analysis, all excellent.<br /><br />I'm not a big college football fan so I had never heard of this guy, but I'm so glad that he can catch a football. I'm always staggered that that seems to be like halfway down the list on what teams look for in WRs--like...less important than 'game face'.<br /><br />The stuff on character was great as well. I do care about character (shamefacedly, I acknowledge that I'm like the tiresome pearl clutcher of the Armchair Linebacker commentariat. :( ) but the NFL's take on it is so gross. They conflate every possible human reaction to 'character', using it to excuse horrible actions yet smear guys for not being yes men. I truly feel that in a secret ballot the head honchos at the NFL feel that like...Nate Burleson is worse for the game than Ben Roethlisberger, because mouthiness threatens them but rape only threatens young women that can be intimidated into shutting up. Ugh, I'll stop...but go Titus! I loved his interview too.<br /><br />I've been staying away from football because I have no idea how to be a fan of this time. I mean, I AM a fan of this team, more passionately and sincerely than ever...but I don't know how to be a good fan of an actual FOOTBALL TEAM rather than Plato's allegory of the cave or whatever the Lions were before. I'll shut up now, because, I'm babbling, but I feel like your last few posts have helped me with that--calm reason, acknowledgement of the mental frailties of the fanbase and actual information, so thanks Neil!

It's a theme I've noticed a lot the last couple of years - there seems to be a real genuine sense of pride that runs throughout the organization. The players are actually proud to be Lions and a part of the Detroit community and that has extended to the fans. It's a weird feeling, a completely foreign feeling, and yet its organic and very, very real. This isn't some desperate made up OH GOD WE'VE GOT TO BELIEVE BECAUSE THE ALTERNATIVE IS JUST TOO TERRIBLE hysteria. It's real, genuine pride and enthusiasm. It's in those Titus Young quotes. Go back and read them. That's a dude who is proud to be a Detroit Lion and wants to be here and get shit done. How can you not get behind somebody like that? That sense of pride, that ethic, seems to run throughout the team and so it's easy, for a change, to root for this team and really, really mean it.<br /><br />Also, my therapist - a neighborhood dog named Greensleeves - and I believe that the only way to properly understand the hooker incident is to discuss it. In that way, we strip it of its power to hurt us. Also, Greensleeves believes that pants are a sin against nature, but to tell you the truth, he's not a very good therapist. Then again he does let me pay him in Kibble & old shoes so he has that going for him.Neilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16300561079216508635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3580115438716980446.post-91616885469516373022011-05-19T18:32:35.309-04:002011-05-19T18:32:35.309-04:00Plus you've gotta love that the dude showed up...Plus you've gotta love that the dude showed up to the player run workouts on his own dime. No contract and no contact with management since the draft. <br /><br />BTW, I'm really liking the fact that we have leaders on this team, like KVB and Stafford, that could organize this past weeks workouts. It might not be the intensity of OTA's, but it lets them keep building team chemistry and keeps everyone honest about their commitment to the team. This as opposed to other teams where only a couple guys are getting together, usually all from one side of the ball. Or even worse is dude's like Reggie Bush, that are treating this whole CBA mess like a vacation. It's just good to know that we don't have a roster loaded with douche-bags and/or nozzles.<br /><br />P.S. I thought we agreed to never speak of the hooker incident again....lolJPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08963893472040994684noreply@blogger.com
