The Lions can't really go wrong by drafting Suh, can they?
CAN THEY?!
Oh God I hate this franchise.

The Madden Curse is a pussy, Larry Fitzgerald bitchslapped it and told it make him a sandwich.
Also even as fan joke it's fucking retarded, these people get injured because they are football players and large men hit them while running. Confirmation Bias, people, and just playing along isn't an excuse to perpetuate sloppy thinking.

Less than 24 hours til the Lions front office crushes their fan base again!
You're a bad person.
The truth hurts
It seems like a self-fulfilling prophecy though.
I mean, I've already decided that I don't care for the Browns first-round choice, and there are still at least 8 good hours before they announce it.
If it works out you have a good story.
I can remember in 94 when the Pats picked Ty Law, my dad and I wanted someone else (I forget who) and didn't see it coming at all. For a good 5-10 minutes we were like "Ty Law!?" We calmed down when we learned more about him but to this day when the future HoFer is brought up we joke about it
That was back when the draft was on the weekend like it should be instead of this Thursday-Friday bullshit
I don't see how the Lions could screw this up. If they don't take Suh or McCoy they'll probably take Okung. Any of those would probably be a good pick.
But, you know, the Lions.

Way to rain on everyone's parade.
Jerk.
Parades are stupid anyway.

It seems like a completely transparent money-grab. Unfortunately it'll work and the draft will never again be a lazy Saturday affair the way God intended.

Until it is on Fox with Terry Bradshaw, Howie Long and crewe, it will not have truly jumped the shark.

I'm not convinced. People already watch television on Thursday, I bet it gets beat pretty bad.

I dunno, I'm not entirely clear how in-depth ratings are measured, but I'll bet they get a decent share of people flipping back and forth. The second and third rounds tomorrow night will do terribly, but the first round I'll bet they do okay.
My position is that I don't care for the suspension but I kind of understand it, but Goodell is still a cockbag.
Were I commissioner, the league would be so fucking rad. No more celebration fines is step number one, changing overtime to a yard line auction would be step two.
I want you to be the commissioner immediately.
A yard line auction? Like:
Vikings: If we get the ball first, we'll start from our own 25.
Saints: We'll start from our own 15.
Vikings: Our own 10.
Saints: Our own 5.
Vikings: Deal. Take it.
That would be... awesome.
Yeah, you can still keep the sudden death that makes the TV schedulers happy, but it gives a defense/field position type team to actually play their kind of game. It's the best.

Think of all the games that would end with a safety.
This is really the best idea I've heard. It'll never happen, but it's awesome.

Simmons pointed out it should be the weekend before the NHL and NBA playoffs start. He's pretty much right.
I dunno, I'm not entirely clear how in-depth ratings are measured, but I'll bet they get a decent share of people flipping back and forth. The second and third rounds tomorrow night will do terribly, but the first round I'll bet they do okay.
Just trying to reverse jinx things. There's not much I can do to get them to land Suh, but I can do this!

I like Eisen and Mayock more than Boomer and Kiper, so NFLN for me.
Same , Mayock is awesome. I don't mind Kiper but McShay makes me want to punch the TV.
You do it, I already control the wrestling thread in D&D.
Pluto was a planet and I'll never forget
