Yeah that was great. Reminds me of better days when the Bears were still likable.
Do you ever have anything positive to say?

He can't trade him until he's under contract.Actually if the Lions want to give up the 16th pick for Jeffery, Pace needs to do that in a heartbeat.
Detroit. The only place players rather retire than make money. Seriously though, I would guess he is valuing having a good life after he retires. Whatever his reasoning, he is one of the greatest to every step on the field. He is/was a freak in every sense of the word. You are not going to see to many athletes like him and applaud his great career if he does retire.
I called it 5 years ago. Said that one day he would retire. Boom!!!!

Stafford has played well without Megatron, so there really shouldn't be many worries there.
Have to agree, he's been playing with a watered down version of Megatron for a year and half now. Got to believe Treadwell will be high on their draft list as well as one of the mid range FA Wide-outs.
We also have to recognize that Megatron leaving won't be the only thing that happens to Detriot this offseason. His Cap number this year is $24M. They will get over $11M in space if he retires. That will give them some extra $ to spend on OL or a few other weapons. I recall there was a point in this season where Stafford had a guy in his face the entire game. Not having that much cap space committed to one player could easily help them give Stafford more time.
Hopefully this leads to less good players re-signing in Detroit.
Like who? Ansah and.....?
Good stuff. Lions lose one of the best players they've had in franchise history, and you spin it into a 'cap space' positive. "Yeah, Stafford might have lost the best WR in the NFL, but at least now he has more time to find Lance Moore on that 15-yard dig route!"
CCS found the cap space to afford my services. Trying to wade through some of these Bears threads...haven't made it to the Jay Cutler Pro Bowl thread yet...I see things haven't changed all that much around here.
I like that. Welcome back.I'm more about increasing forum quality. I think there is more than enough forum activity here...and I mean that in a good way.
