It’s widely known that I am a Detroit Lions fan. Every year for the past 20 years has ended in disappointment since I have yet to cheer for a Super Bowl champion. Off season after off season has been filled with hopeful draft picks and free agency signings, but usually all of the optimism is lost around the halfway mark of the season. This year is no exception. We have signed multiple former Tampa Bay Buccanear retreads to hopefully improve a lackluster defense. Mike Martz has been replaced as offensive coordinator and we resigned a few decent players. But the most puzzling move in my mind was for them to cut Kevin Jones. Yes, he has had injury issues and yes he hasn’t been as productive as his rookie season, but at least try to trade him or ask him to accept a paycut. In my mind, flat out cutting him was a bad decision. Not because of his role in the new offense, but because he clearly had some value. Philly.com has reported that 12 teams have shown interest in Kevin Jones, including the Eagles. Bad move Matt Millen. I am sure that we can use a late rounder in exchange for a solid running back that has immediately drawn so much attention after his release. Maybe Kevin Jones’ release was a cop out by Matt because getting an extra pick would just force him to make another decision come draft day.

This drama is common for a Detroit Lions fan and sparked me to think about the other teams around the league. Which fans have the most difficult time cheering for their respective team? The Raiders are the first that come to mind, but at least they have recently played in the Super Bowl. Which team do you think gives their fans the toughest job?
