Be Good at Being Bad!

Click Here for a Radioaffliction Quickie!

Being Monday and it's raining out I'm left to ponder the weekend that was, and since most of the weekend was spent following sports(although I introduced my girlfriend to one of my parents this weekend, but that's a different story), one of the results of the weekend has led to a coach in the National Football League(NFL) to be fired after only four games played in a sixteen game season.
Apparently the St. Louis Rams know something now that they didn't know two months ago or after their thrilling 3-13 season last year. But they are moving forward, and have promoted the defensive assistant coach to "Interim" coach. I am always curious when an organization thinks it needs a change of direction in coaching they always promote someone from the same poor coaching staff who was probably just as responsible for the down fall of the team as the head coach was.
The moral of the story here is to allow this team to be good. Be good at being bad. Go for the winless season. No one has done it since the schedule went to sixteen games and that was thirty years ago! Go for it, there has to be a first time for everything!

Thank you Detroit Lions for taking the advice of this post.
No one will remember all the 1-15 teams of the past 30 years, but everyone will remember the first team to ever go 0-16!
The Detroit Lions will live on forever!
