Matt Millen to return as Lions president

Matt Millen is coming back.

Why? Seriously, why? Haven't the Lions fans suffered enough? Does he have some good blackmail pictures or something on Ford?
Next MONTH? So he's saying that if he wins, the best-case scenario is that he'll be paying for it two weeks after the auction ends?

Forget blocking him; find out where he lives and go punch him in the nuts. --WalterSobchak 9/12/12

Looking for Al Hrabosky and any OPC Dave Campbells (the ESPN guy)

    Well there goes the chances of the Chiefs getting the #1 pick any time soon. There comes a time when one should stop being greedy and quit hogging all the good draft picks. image

    That's laughable if it weren't so insane.

    Just count your blessings that Isiah Thomas is GM/Coach of the Knicks and not the Pistons.

    I resign as a Lions fan. I can't take it anymore.

    It defies all rational understanding. This is the same team that kept the horrible Wayne Fontes as coach for 8 years so the
    standard for stupidity for this owner was set long ago.

    Old man William Clay Ford is just giving the big FU to the fans. Remember this is the same family that let Ford Motor slide into oblivion before bringing in a new guy to fix the mess.

  • He's rewarding himself for beating Dallas! He must have seen something in his team in that game that made the little voice in his head say "yes, yes we are on our way now." "We have a playoff team for next season and I want to be around for it."

    Do what I do in moments like these; sit down with a bottle of warm vodka and remember the words of the Good Chairman: 'Every life could use a little suffering',

    Whoever gets taken #2 in the NFL draft by the Lions is going to be overjoyed knowing that Matt Millen is still there. What a great
    situation to start an NFL career. image
  • I'm not here to defend Millen, but think about it.

    You are Matt Millen. You are making a ton of money to do...well.....not much given the team's history. Why quit? No one else will pick you up. If you quit, you don't get paid. Get fired, though, and you do.

    If I was Matt Millen and the Ford family said, "We want you back", I'd stay and hope I got fired if things didn't improve.

    Remember these Chuck Norris Facts

    1. When Chuck Norris does a pushup, he isn't lifting himself up, he's pushing the Earth down
    2. According to Einstein's theory of relativity, Chuck Norris can actually roundhouse kick you yesterday
    3. There are no such things as lesbians, just women who have not yet met Chuck Norris

    It takes a real "man" to admit he is incompetent for a job and leave on their own. Matt Millen is
    not that kind of person.

    Michigan,

    I agree, but when was the last time you met one? At work, in life, or in the news for that matter? Bob Nardelli cuts Home Depot's market value and walked away with >$200 million. Is that a real man? Even if he was a real man and walked away with much less, no one would still care.

    A lot of people do it but of course don't make a public announcement of that being the reason.

    Admitting failure either to yourself or to someone else is not all that horrible, I've done it myself a few times.

    The Lions are a Joke. That team needs to be cleaned out from the top all the way down to the basement.
