LOL @ Mora Sr. being drilled on the coaching changes today on NFLN. Also LOL @ other commentators repeatedly suggesting that Falcons should consider Mariucci, way to have respect for yr fellow broadcaster dudes. "Your son sucks! You know who would be awesome, that drunk who is always on Eisen's jock and cryin' over Favre. He would be better...than your son LOL!~!!"

Cincy gets big play to put themselves in field goal range with less than a minute left
They race down the field and spike the ball to stop the clock
They can't the next play off in time so call a timeout
They then kneel down two times in a row
Miss field goal
lol

Eisen: Hi, I'm Rich Eisen! I'm too good to be here today, so I'm gonna leave you with Schefter.Schefter: Hi, I'm Adam Schefter! With me tonight are Jamie and Marshall. Guys, what do you think about the 2007 NFL season?Marshall: Basically, it was terrible. The Carolina Panthers can really go straight to hell, I lost my pool because of them. Jamie: I agree wholeheartedly with Marshall on this one, the Panthers are a terrible team. Schefter: Ah but guys, you are forgetting something when you say 2007 was terrible!!(CUT TO DENNY GREEN SPEECH)Everyone: LOL LOL LOL LOL OMG WTF LOLLLSchefter: I can watch that until 2008, and I think we might very well start that goal up tonight. Anyway, those of you at home might notice that Mooch is not with us tonight either. That is because he is auditioning for the head coaching job in Atlanta, amirite!?EVERYONE: LOL OLOLLOLOLOL ROFFLES Mora Sr: (glowers in corner, hordes the precious)Schefter: Oh hey guys, remember this!!!(DENNY GREEN AGAIN)Everyone: LOL Maybe he can coach the Falcons!! LOLJamie: Hey Mora, do you think 3 years is long enough for a coach to really be given a chance in a system?Mora sr: Well, it depends on the team and the coach and the schedule and the moon and whether or not ILX is up and what kind of cheese I like best that day, but in general I'd say no, you need at least 6 years, I mean look at Cowher.Jamie: That doesn't make much sense, also you were someone advocating benching Vick, doesn't he deserve 6 years.Mora Sr: No.Jamie: Ok well what do you think about Mooch sonning your son in a Falcons beef LOLMora Sr: (HEAD EXPLODES)Schefter: Well that was very interesting, thanks Jamie and Coach. Hey, guys, wanna watch Denny Green again? I can watch that forever.

Another subpar season won't cost Lions president Matt Millen his job.
Millen, who has a 24-72 record in his first six seasons, will return next season. He still has four years left on the contract extension he was given last season.
Millen said Tuesday that quitting is not an option he has considered despite criticism of the team's dismal performance in his tenure.
"I'll never quit,'' Millen said in an interview with a small group of reporters, including The Detroit News, which posted some of his comments on its Web site. "I can't do that. I don't even consider that."
"It's the way I'm made."
Asked why he wouldn't quit, Millen replied: "You're given a job, regardless of what it is. You keep on working and trying to get the thing done."
The Lions beat Dallas on Sunday, closing the season an NFC-low 3-13.
Detroit was proud of proving it didn't quit on the miserable season by beating a playoff team in Week 17. The victory snapped a seven-game skid and a winless mark on the road in 2006.
It also cost the Lions the No. 1 pick in the draft -- an asset they could've used to perhaps trade for picks and players.
"I really don't want to be one or two," receiver Roy Williams said. "I'd rather be picking 31st."
Millen would, too, because such a low pick indicates success. (<---thanks for the explanation)
The Lions, who fired defensive coordinator Donnie Henderson and offensive line coach Larry Beightol on Tuesday, have struggled so much since Millen, a former linebacker and analyst, took over that they're had the No. 2 pick twice, No. 3 once and three other top-10 picks.
Some of the players taken with those picks haven't panned out and that begins to explain the mess the team is in six years after Millen arrived to lead a once-mediocre franchise.
About 100 Detroit fans held a protest during the second quarter of the last home game of the season Dec. 24 against the Chicago Bears. The fans left their seats midway through the quarter and gathered in Ford Field's atrium, where they chanted "Fire Millen" while watching the game on the scoreboard.
Before Detroit's final home game, Millen said he talked to team owner William Clay Ford after each game and when they met in the middle of the season, they talked about plans for the next year.
Quarterback Joey Harrington and receiver Charles Rogers -- a third and second pick overall, respectively -- were discarded in 2006 and some have speculated that 2005 first-round pick Mike Williams will be the next to go.
Williams expects and wants to be back.
"People call me a bust, so when you get that label, there's no pressure," said Williams, who had a touchdown on Sunday to end his 30-game scoreless streak. "I don't worry about people talking about my weight and work ethic because I'm doing what I love to do and a lot of people can't say that.
"Things haven't started out pretty for me in the NFL, but that's going to change."
Detroit has more needs than picks in the draft and not enough cap space to fill every hole with free agency.
"There are a lot of things that need to be fixed," quarterback Jon Kitna said.
