Thank God Martha outlived WCF. He would have given the team to Billy Junior. Martha gave it to Sheila. That's the difference.
I gotta admit, when I heard Sheila was taking over from her mom I shook my head. But then as I thought about it, who else was available? Billy Jr? Another underwhelming son from a family with a long history of underwhelming sons, his father maybe the head of the bunch? Billy Ford treated the Lions as a plaything. I'm sure he wanted to win on some level, but losing didn't bother him near enough and if he liked a guy that guy had a job for life, or at least until Billy didn't like him anymore. Records and such never played that big a role. Sheila on the hand has treated it like a full-time job and rather than turn to the NFL and goodell for help, like her mom had tried, she dialed Chris Spielman, a guy she knew and trusted and more importantly a guy who knew the game and was personally invested in their success. He was a former player, but he was also a fan, and he felt a personal loyalty to the Fords for the help they gave him when his wife came down with cancer. That explains why he was so angry when the fans booed Shelia during the Calvin Johnson celebration at Ford Field. Really though, they were booing her dad, and Sheila understood that and stood there and took it. That showed character. She let the fans vent. Now? If that same ceremony was to take place today I'm willing to bet she'd get a standing ovation. A lot of owners would have bailed on Coach and Holmes when the team seemed to be getting worse the deeper they went into the rebuild but that day, when she addressed the press and said these are my guys, that was a turning point. I look at that as the moment this iteration of the Lions came into being. I was wrong about her, and I'll eat my humble pie alamode. I still wish she would lose that WCF patch on the uniforms but I get it, he was her dad and she is a Ford at the end of the day. But this is not Billy's Model-T running against Ferrari anymore. I can't wait to see her reaction when goodell hands her that Lombardi. It may not happen this year, or next year for that matter, but like this young Lions team, it's coming. Then maybe God will decide okay, you've seen quite enough, time to come home young fella. We'll see. In the meantime thanks Sheila, for proving me wrong. Now go tell that coach to bite those Packers kneecaps extra hard on Thanksgiving!
He's the unsung hero for the organization, it started with Sheila getting the reigns and then immediately getting the absolute best guy to get the ball rolling.

Thanks are due to Ms. Sheila for taking the success of the team on the field seriously, which her predecessors certainly hadn't shown much interest in, for standing by Holmes and Campbell in the early struggles and for bringing guys like Spielman and Barry in to lend legitimacy to the whole project. So, as a fan that picked the Lions every week in Plaza Las Vegas free play in 2008, may I just say thank you, Ms. Shiela, for giving me a reason other than delusion to believe in these #lovableLions

We always had passion as fans. We never left. This team is special man. This. Is. Amazing. I hope lions fans don’t ask for SB or bust. We are good. Let’s enjoy it.
Actually, the Lions were a long-respected franchise up till WC Ford's purchase in '61. While Joe Schmidt was Coach we remained a .500 club. When he retired in '73, GM Russ Thomas was given free rein to run the team into the ground, which he did. During those 60+ years of ineptitude, I wonder what the women talked about amongst themselves.
Dan Campbell started a presser this fall by saying 'First off let me say this...' and heaped praise and recognition on Spielman for good reason. He spotted him after practice replacing divots on the practice field with the grounds crew. That's the kind of guy Chris Spielman is.
We should support the Lions despite of Roger Goodell saying nice things about them. 😜 He's not wrong about Shiela ph1stsblowsgoats-Lamp, though - she's the real MVP, wrestling the Lions away from the rest of the Ford family
The only thing unanswered why did the commissioner of the NFL come to Detroit for a non primetime game in the middle of the regular season when we played the bears ?
So you want the Lions to win unfairly? I'd rather see them win fair and square that's the sign of a true champion, not someone who gets help from the refs. So you accept that? Then you admit it's fixed. You are a true modern day NFL Sheep, congratulations!🤪😂
@wokkydrugz Since you know it's fixed then why bother watching it if it's just like a TV show? because that's what it is. So you admit your spineless without any integrity, well at least you admit it but I don't want to reward immorality.

Other teams complaining about the Lion having that spotlight. I could be wrong, but the Chiefs were the main one' s that wanted the game to be rotated around 06-08 the league added a third game. Not Goodell at all.
People forget what Roger Godell's job is: he's a lawyer who was chosen to be the spokesman for a trade group of football team owners' lawyers. You can't expect him to understand the sport.
They may or may not win a Super Bowl with this defense but they will atleast win one playoff game with this defense and that’s what they set out to do at seasons end last year..I think the defense will be fine when they get Houston and cede back.then we kept our draft picks next year. this team is going to be like the ultimate warriors in 2 years cause they are being built the right way!
We dont need your input, where was you over the years, go away you bring non needed attentions Lions just need to keep up the grind going. Go away Commissioner. Motown being doing alone for years. Fox news stop the over cameras in the Lions face they need to stay focus and keep up with the Grit.
I'm glad Roger is actually letting the Lion's win. The Lion's always had pretty good teams. Roger just rigged the games with scripted ref calls to get the teams he liked to win.
Lions fans are delusional... the Lions lose to teams .500 or better; barely beat teams under .500, and they have the weakest schedule in the league. You don't have to believe me, you can go look at the stats.
