So Sorry, I've Given Another Team a Bad Case of The Lions

As some of you know, the NFL team closest to the place of my birth is indeed the Detroit Lions. I think I may be a carrier of the disease that plagues the team. I moved to the bay area in 1999 and four years later the once mighty Raiders contracted a bad case of The Lions. From 2003-2008 they are 24-72, the worst run in franchise history (even the Lions better the Raiders with a 26-70 record since 2003). I moved to Colorado in 2004 and it appears the disease has fully incubated with the Broncos. Denver ownership has lost their mind and fired dual ringed Mike Shanahan in favor of arrogant punk Josh McDaniels who immediately decided to do his best to ruin the fanchises relationship with Jay Cutler. I couldn't find the video, but in McDaniels latest statement to the press he says "He's our quaterback AHHHEM!" What? The fake sneeze while saying "bull shit" too obvious Josh? Then he goes on to say he's leaving all his options open. So Josh, you think Cutler is overrated. In two full seasons - his first two full seasons - he has 8023 yards passing and 45 TDs. For Elway's entire carrer his top two seasons net 8000 yards. In Cutler's third year with the team he made the probowl, and 8-8 is a pretty good record for quarterback playing with a defense ranked 30th in points allowed (N.E. D ranked 8th). I'm sorry Bronco's fans, but it's only going to get worse.....

Stay the fuck away from the DC/metro area. You're like the Steve Beurlein of football fans.
