I have to imagine the only thing more depressing than watching the Lions would be playing for them.

But more seriously, former Lions quarterback Joey Harrington opens up about his battle with depression that occurred when he was anointed the latest Chosen One of America's worst professional football team. The coaching carousel and offensive systems change certainly didn't help, but he always seemed like a decent guy. Still does. 

He seems at peace now, back home in Oregon and working with homeschoolers and his own foundation for high schoolers. Good for him.

  2. Probably? But it won't happen. The only thing the ownership is known for is owning the Lions. Unless someone just up and offers insanity money, they will never let it go.

    So we're probably doomed. But at least I chose the better path yesterday, napping from halftime on.

  3. "...napping from halftime on." So did the Lions.
