I have no respect for the Lions or Lions' fans. As I read in a tweet this morning- the Lions are the Vancouver Canucks of the NFL- "overhyped classless frauds."
The Lions are neither (1) overhyped, (2) classless or (3) frauds.
Overhyped: Nobody predicted the Lions to be 6-3. Moreover, at the start of the season, I doubt anybody would have picked the Lions to beat the Bears in Chicago, the 49rs or the Falcons. If anything, most "experts" would have picked the Lions to be 3-6 and to have their usual disappointing year.
Classless--True, there are a few bad apples in the Detroit Lions team, but that doesn't mean that the team is classless. I will note that no Detroit Lions got ejected in last week's game against the Bears.
Frauds--the Lions are not claiming to be anything that they are not. They are not claiming to be Superbowl champs (having not being in a superbowl) or anything more than an enthusiastic team led by an enthusiastic coach.
