At the sports desk: hope for Lions fans

I'm also a Detroit Lions fan.
Thanks for the condolences.
But here's a piece that makes sense--the Detroit News' Mike O'Hara urges the Lions to go after Scott Pioli.

Who's he? Another wide receiver? Nope--he's high up in the New England Patriots organization. He knows players, talent, and coaching, and that's what the Lions need.
If there are any Lions fans still out there, this is what you need to be agitating for, folks--get someone in charge of the team who knows players, coaching, etc. That means getting it out of the hands of the Ford ownership's favorite folks, and into the hands of people who have proven track records and who know something. Let's hope the Fords finally, finally listen to reason.
