NFL free agency for fans is like a whole neighborhood of kids opening their presents together over a really long Christmas morning and none of them lying about how they like their new gifts. If that end is too tight or too expensive, you're gonna hear about it.
Obviously, fans of the Denver Broncos are the spoiled rich kids this year, and the working class Browns' dad must have hit the four digit lottery, because they added some talent while discarding two quarterbacks (Brandon Weeden and Jason Campbell) who couldn't get a first down if their dad owned a goose farm.
But I am from Detroit, and the Lions are the team that is my not-so-secret Santa.
Thank you for Golden Tate. I think he'll be a lovely addition to our collective toy chest.
Ummm, I don't want to sound like a spoiled brat (and really, can anyone who calls themselves a Lions fan be anything but a tired, forlorn soul who has choked on draft fruitcakes like Charles Rogers and Mike Williams ?) but a bunch of other kids are getting stud action figures like hmmmm, I don't know, I haven't given it that much thought but...
1. Darrelle Revis (Signed one-year, $12M deal with NE)
2. Brent Grimes (Re-signed four-year, $32M deal with MIA)
3. Aqib Talib (Signed six-year, $57M deal with DEN)
4. Alterraun Verner (Signed four-year, $25.5M deal with TB)
5. Vontae Davis (Re-signed four-year, $39M deal with IND)
And I realize you can't always get what you want, but…
how about…
1. Jairus Byrd (Signed six-year, $54M deal with NO)
2. T.J. Ward (Signed four-year, $23M deal with DEN)
3. Donte Whitner (Signed four-year, $28M deal with CLE)
4. Antoine Bethea (Signed four-year, $21M deal with SF)
I realize, Lions, that you just had a death in the family, so my feelings won't be hurt if you give your Visa card to John Elway and have him do the shopping for you, okay ?
