The 2009 NFL opponents list is out. Hope springs eternal for us sanity-deficient Lion’s Fans.
It’s the NFL “Dead Week” before the Superbowl. With that it’s too soon for me to be talking about the Lion’s #1 Draft pick. I’ll hold that until after the Superbowl. But……….. we do have some items of interest for your viewing pleasure as the 2009 NFL opponents list is out. It was released about 3 weeks ago but hasn’t gone around much. My guess is that people are just waiting for the official 2009 schedule, with playing dates and times, that comes out in the spring. I like to get a head start on my day dreaming so I’m bringing it out early. Look up your team and Good Luck next season. Unless your playing the Lions then I hope you get your a@@es kicked! No offense inntended…..
Don’t forget the Lions have the #1 pick in the Draft on April 25th.
