Everyone say hello! Introduction Thread

[diehardlionfan]

I have been remiss in not keeping up with the newbies introducing themselves.

Welcome to the Lions Den. Don't be shy, it can get a bit heated from time to time but it's not personal and new views are always a good thing.

I am SeattleLionFan...

I was born in Detroit, MI in 1958 which makes me 54...sad to say that in my entire life, the Detroit Lions have never won a football championship or been to the Super Bowl.

I moved to Seattle in 1990 but remain a staunch Lions fan. I could have very easily cheered for another team and in fact did so for a time when the Seahawks made their Super Bowl run...but my love for my hometown team never left and I've been a hopeless fan ever since.

I was a major contributor for the Fire Millen.com site and when that came to an end, I was a writer for the Bleacher Report. However, that site has become nothing more than a place for wanna-be sports writers instead of fans wanting to voice about their teams. After writing for them for over 5 years, they decided that I wasn't good enough to write for them anymore.

I researched a lot of sites before setteling on Footballs Future...the reason I hope to be accepted here reminds me a lot of the Fire Millen site where fans just want their teams to do well...a lot of lively debates and what appears to be a self-discipline to treat each other with respect...even if they are a Bears fan.

See you inside!

Hello, thenoilif here.

Long time FF consumer but now I hope to be able to add to the discussion.
I was born and raised in Lansing, MI but now I'm residing in Bangkok, Thailand.
Been a loyal Lions fan since 1988. Barry Sanders has always been my favorite player and it was his play for the Lions that really got me into football.
I look forward to talking Lions and everything else football with all of you.

Cheers

Been lurking off and on for years in the offseason, decided to jump on board. 23 year old from Nebraska, my first memory of pro football was the 1997 thanksgiving game and been a Lions fan ever since. Huskers will always be my #1 though. I'm a high school OL coach with the goal of being a high school head coach some day. I spend a lot of time studying various schemes and scouting players so feel free to ask me anything relating to offensive line play.

Welcome to the boards. Always good to have new opinions. I look forward to the perspectives of a coach.
