    Definitely the Lions. Although this season is obviously the new benchmark in suckage, the ultimate disgrace still has to be Barry Sanders retiring. One of the greatest running backs the game has ever seen and they broke him. Totally killed his passion for the game.


    The Ford family is doing nothing with them, they are a complete embarrassment. I bet Mel Farr doesn't even mention his football career anymore. Just the dude on TV wearing a cape. God, if only Ilitch or Davidson owned them.

    Ohh, there are so many in Sucksville-Central, MI. Between the Corrupt Government, the bad automakers, bad public schools, and worthless Lions, it's just an all-round suck fest, contributing to an ever-perpetuating cycle of suck. Bad Governments lead to bad municipalities and public services, which help to lead to bad schools lead to bad students, which cant get employed because the bad automakers and jobs are scarce.

    Hey, yeah, thanks for all the football tie-ins, by the way. Because, you know, I was just thinking, "The thing that this car website is really lacking is more articles about FOOTBALL. And not real football, either, but rather that girly-man version they play in the NFL. Yeah, gimme more of that."

    I don't care much for any of the pro stuff, myself.

    @The Name's Ash78, Housewares: I like the underpaid, "I have another job to support my family because I don't get paid that much to play football" guys in the CFL.


    Partly because one of my best friends' apartments overlooks Commonwealth Stadium in Edmonton, and we can actually watch games from her balcony.


    Although if I'm honest, I don't REALLY like any of them, I just like the NFL the least.

    Losing $600 million is worse than 0-16.


    Going to jail is also worse than 0-16.


    But is going to jail or losing $600 million worse than the shame of "we made the Sebring that way on purpose"?


    Certainly not.


    Congratulations Chryslerebus....you're the shit in the Detroit metro's shit sandwich.

    Although I'm in Ohio, I love Detroit and everything it means for car people. As a result, I won't particpate in this QOTD and would ask for a moratorium on all Detroit bashing in 2009. Except maybe for Kwame and Red Ink Rick...

    It's gotta be either Kwame or the Lions. Since the Lions aren't trying to convince us that they really won all of those games but the league is fabricating touchdowns to make them look bad, Kwame wins by a nose.
