Credibility and Matt Millen?

Of course he has no credibility as a GM, team prez or whatever WCF chose to call him. The proof is plain for all to see. The guy didn't know how to judge talent and that destroyed a team. However the guy knows how to play the game of football, but then again, I also know how to play the game. Nobody will pay me $1,000,000 a year for my insight into the game, which is probably a bit better then Matt's will be. My point? TV newscasters or sportscasters need not be the brightest people. They just have to have the gift of gab and remember not to curse on national TV. This guy is exactly where he should be, ESPN. Name me one genius in that organization?

Go away Millen

Matt Millen,

I wish you would go away. You annoy us. You destroyed our team and you were so greedy you would not step down and reduce our losses. You created a mess that will take us years to shovel out of. I hope you flop in your new career.

Matt Millen

This poor loser Millen should be dagged through the city of Detroit streets by his boots. The only CEO of NFL football who knew and still does not know anything about rebuilding an NFL tean with a PLAN. Matt Millen still does not understand any thing about the rules of the NFL period. Matt is just a plain Joe the plumber NFL analyst who should not be paid over $100 per game.

The big loser now is the TV network that pays Millen for his time.

sleepless in allen park

poor Matt,so much stress......

sorry Matt,but no matter what you try and spin-you will forever be remembered as the biggest blithering idiot in the history of this sorry arse NFL team!

William Clay Ford lives by the following words;

Winners never quit,

And losers never win,

But those who never win,

and never quit,

are just idiots....

CyberSurvey: Matt Millen as a TV analyst?

For all the difference you made during your tenure, Matt, you should have slept. You really couldn't have done any worse, that's for sure.

?? Are you serious Matt ??

What utter nonesense...

Matt's job was simply to tell Ford of old football tales of how he was so sucessful playing back in the day.

As to spending any time or delegating it so that he can simply put in a piss poor effort with minimal involvement and most of the year spent either smoking something weird or drinking too much can be the only explanation as if someone actively tried to mess up a team could not have done a better job at messing things up.

Matt was a flipping moron... he wouldn't put in the necessary time nor would he listen to the advice of others.

Matt was Matt... and the results speak for themselves.

Who would have known that Matt would make Wayne Fontes look like a football genius, and Bobby Ross a super genius.

Matt Millen

Hey Matt ... never confuse being busy with being productive. Thanks for nothing.

Spellcheck, please.

dcd; We're all ignorant Lions fans,AND it's because we ARE Lions fans that we ARE ignorant. So we don't sweat the spellin' stuff. Bein' Lions fans ....how can we hold anyone else to a higher standard than our own? We just want to see one 8-8 season again. Ain't that pathetic?? Trouble is we'll get to 8-8 and then TANK again and start all over yet again. The better part of my life is spent, so if yer younger than me....see what you have to look forward to? WHOOOPEEE! My advice to youngsters....CHOOSE A DIFFERENT TEAM! This organization will only take your money and your dreams and then disappoint you...over and over and over and over and .....it will never end as long as WCF is in charge and I ain't too sure about junior neither.

Spellcheck, please.

Elicit. It's E-L-I-C-I-T.

Although, come to think of it, Millen's tenure at the Lions could very well be described as "illicit."

When the games over its over " W H A A A T "

Thats only part of your problem. You should have been taking work home - you had alot to do & Part Time is not enough on a Full Time Job. You were not mentally equiped at any point to handle that job & you knew that first & foremost, but you kept taking the checks Matt Madoff ... YEA ... made off with our money - say hello to your cousin Bernie for us & then kick him in the Buttocks for the victims. We know what victims are thanks to you & a long line of Ford bad judgements, because they to know not what they do. In other words they like you do not know enough about the game ... Football not Con.
