Motown Bombers

Montez Sweat put up 5 sacks in 10 games last year and 9 the year before. Okwara even put up more sacks than Sweat in 2020. I'm not exactly kicking myself that the Lions passed on Sweat for Hockenson. Devin Bush has 4 total sacks. He had one of the worst LB grades last year. Burns had back to back 9 sack seasons. Good but it's not like the Lions passed on Donald for Ebron. Oliver was rated higher than all of them, drafted higher than all of them, and would have been the most likely pick if they didn't draft Hockenson.

The only TE I can find that put up better numbers than Hockenson in equal or fewer games is Darren Waller. If you average Hockenson's yards out over a full season, he would rank 6th among TE's. Kittle and Waller missed some time so they would be ahead of Hockenson as well over a full season. His catches over a full season would rank 3rd among TE's. His TD's would rank tied for 7th. When healthy he is a top 10 TE and could potentially get to top 5.

Hockenson also missed 5 games so it seems a little disingenuous to use total stats. The other player that was realistically a choice for the Lions at 8 was Ed Oliver who has pretty much been a bust.

I'm going to hazard a guess and say he's talking about how when you went to motownsports.com there was a page with articles from the four teams. You then had to click visit forums to continue to the forums. I did a Google image search and found what I think he is talking about. Looks like we still have them but the pages are under each team now in the forum.

In a similar vein, a long thread from an optomistic chap.

That's more than Trump's net worth.

I don't think he's close. If he was, I wouldn't want to trade down then because the Lions could desperately use a playmaker like that.

I remember when teachers and doctors were respected professions.

I purchased my house a little over 10 years ago during the Obama administration and it is worth 5 times more than what I paid for it. A big thanks to Obama and Biden.

Steven Seagal has really let himself go.

Not sure how 94 is an alternative to 80 given Michigan is a peninsula. Interstate 70 seems like a much more logical alternate route.

Make 75 and 94 toll roads so that way all the international trade that goes through Michigan would have to pay a toll.

One of the major east/west thoroughfares in Ohio is a toll road.

Wasn't intended to show you anything but if Michigan had toll roads and higher gas tax like Whitmer proposed the roads would probably be better. Even red southern states like Florida who doesn't have nearly the road maintenance costs that Michigan has has toll roads.

When I drive into Illinois, the first thing I notice is how I have to pay a toll and how expensive gas is. I'm guessing Michiganders don't want to pay to actually fix the roads.

It never hurts to re-hash Trump's fraud because I completely forgot about the sham charity.

The videos of the people in Shanghai just screaming out of the windows of their apartments was chilling.

Now we await for Buddha to both sides it. What Democrat started a fraudulent university?

I mean, it's a fact not opinion. Start with Trump University that was literally shut down for defrauding people.

I have to say, I'm with JD Vance on this one. I would love to align ourselves more with France than Russia.

Is this a serious question?

I didn't think I would see a Trumper say it must be nice to live in a Socialist country.
