    Almost 40 yrs of being a fan and I can't say that I've ever been so entertained and pumped watching a Lions GM interview. Previous GMs just talked a bunch of BS or everything was cryptic. Brad just talks like a normal guy. He seems like he's the same, consistent guy all the time. Controlled passion. Sheila and Speilman found the best of the crop. The Lions finally have it right! I hope these guys wanna be here for at least a decade. But I'm sure people are knocking their doors down for greater opportunities. But maybe the Lions and their positions fulfill them enough to want to keep doing this for a long time. The Lions have never had guys like this since franchise history. I have no doubt they will bring a SB to Detroit. I just hope they stick around after
