Report: Team President Millen is Out

If only Ford Jr had spoken up a few years ago, he could have saved that team a lot of grief.

Yeah, just read about it on yahoo sports.

The point is, it was done, took a long while, but it was done. Now look forward to rebuilding the team.

You know what this means? Carl Peterson could be fired because the man who couldn't be fired was just fired.

No team in the league could've done a better move, except maybe firing Davis. It isn't the 6000 coaches he's fired fault, its his. Seriously, I think I could do a better job at owning a team, while stoned.

This move was way long overdue, he turned the Detroit Lions into another Cincinatti Bengals, and we all know that the Bengals have been the laughing stock of the NFL for almost 20 years now and the Detroit Lions were the next closest thing to another Bengals that the NFL had and everybody knows we do not need anymore times like that

Now if only Senile Al Davis would buzz off and get lost now

What team do you guys think was worse when they stunk the worst, the Bengals of the 90's and in a way to this present day, though their last few years have not been as bad or the Detroit Lions of the 2000's?

This is really a hard decision, because both teams have had plenty of talent, but neither one developed at all, I think most of us can say with the talent that the Bengals have on Offense, that they have been the biggest disappointment in the NFL, the last few years

Then the Lions having 3 first round WR's and not getting anything out of them and their inability to develop Joey Harrington with those great WR's, this is a team that could have been very good with their talent and everything else, had they not been so screwed up

By the way guys, I live in Dayton Ohio an hour North of Cincinatti and all the Bengals fans are not wearing their shirts and jackets as proudly as they use to, but the Bengal fans got what they deserved
