The Football Gods Are Sickos For The Hell They Unleashed On Lions Fans During The 3rd Quarter Of The NFC Championship Game
Add in some missed sacks on Brock Purdy that led to him ripping off longer runs than Lamar Jackson today and you have some Grade A fucked up shit by the Football Gods in one of the more brutal stretches you will see in FOUR MINUTES flat.
No matter how good or bad the Lions have been during Dan Campbell's tenure in Detroit, they have been built on toughness and execution. Nobody can deny their toughness, and to be honest I wouldn't dare do that about a Dan Campbell coached team out of fear he'd chokeslam my oversized ass through a table. But holy fuck the Lions shit the bed, pissed in it, then bled out in absolutely massive spots while the entire country outside of 49ers fans and the coldest fans of NFC North teams were rooting for them.
I would never try to act like I know what it's like to be a Lions fan who lived through an 0-16 season, multiple legendary players retiring early because the franchise was INCOMPETENT, and God knows how many years of absolutely no hope. However, I do have some experience with misery as a Mets/Knicks fan, and I've been in a spot like tonight's game before and I hope it's somewhere I never go again.
Being a laughingstock with no hope is the absolute worst thing you can endure as a sports fan. But to see your team that has tortured you for almost your entire life actually show up, answer the bell all year, take a commanding lead in the playoffs, and then completely fuck up everything they worked so hard for with self inflicted wounds is a special kind of pain. You can live with a team just being better than you. But going all the way to San Francisco for the NFC Championship Game and causing a 17 point lead to vanish partially thanks to drops, a fumble, a fuck up on special teams, and an unreal catch is pure evil. Yes I am currently reliving the entire 2015 World Series as I type this. #Contact.
Football is the greatest sport on Earth but the Gods that run it are true motherfuckers when they want to be. I hope the Lions not only make it back to this spot next year but actually make then win the Super Bowl. However, you truly never know what will happen since they are one of the franchises those Gods like to torture like a sick kid that picks wings off of flies and you gotta think Ben Johnson gets the Commanders job he's been linked to for weeks. Goddamn that game was evil.
At least New York's biggest front-running fraud is enjoying his night after God knows how many wars that took place between the Niners and Giants.
P.S. What tier of heartbreaking losses was that game? I want to say it's Tier 2 because there were so many self inflicted wounds with a big lead in a game they could have definitely won and Tier 1's are super rare to the point you can just say things like 28-3 or 13 Seconds. But this feels like a Tier 2, even though I'm sure it feels like the top of Tier 1 for every Lions fan right now. Hopefully they can watch this press conference enough to ease the pain and convince themselves this was a horrible yet necessary step to slitting the throats of those Football Gods on their way to a Super Bowl championship.
