Mr. Suh, please sign

Dear Ndamukong Suh,

You are a 6'4", 307lb specimen of a human athlete. You are quite possibly the most dominant defensive lineman to come out of college in the last 10 years. You were drafted 2nd overall this year by our beloved Detroit Lions. You were drafted behind Sam Bradford and ahead of Gerald McCoy, both of whom have signed contracts. You know how much money you should be making. You said you wanted to be in camp on time. Well, this is now Day 3 of your holdout, and we Lions fans are getting sick of it. Sign the contract, Big Boy, and get into camp. Get to work so you can terrorize opposing quarterbacks and try to help restore some of the luster to Detroit football. We're sick of this crap, and just want to see you on the field. Sign a contract. Please and thanks.

Best Regards,
Disgruntled Loyal Detroit Lions Fans Everywhere

Red Wings Three-Week Check-Up

Well, kids, here we are.  Three weeks (that's it!?!) into the 2012- 2013 NHL season.  There have already been a number of highlight moments.  5 point nights from Thomas Vanek.  An incredible, acrobatic save-of-the-year-candidate save from Kari Lehtonen.  The return of a healthy Sidney Crosby, and the Houdini act, and not in a good way, of Alex Ovechkin.

The Red Wings have taken the "hard road" to third in the division.  Now, that may seem like an outlandish statement, giv

Opening Night

Firsts. They all mean something special. First steps. First words. First kisses. First cars. To every individual, the meaning of firsts is different. For the players in the NHL, the first game could mean anything. The first game overseas. First game back in a homeland in so many years. First shot to make an impression in the NHL. Tonight, the Detroit Red Wings will embark on their 2011-2012 journey. It will be the first of 82 games. There are quite a few firsts for this team, despite its very veteran status. The first game behind the Hockeytown benches for both Jeff Blashill and Bill Peters. First game in red and white for new Wings Fabian Brunnstrom and Ian White. The first game of the (possibly) last season for one of the best defensemen of all-time. First year no members of the Grind Line will suit up. First year without the Wizard of Os(good). As stupid as it is, the first game with numbers on the front of the helmets. The first game after a disappointing end to l
