I still say if things don't really turn around in the next two seasons Shanny is gone come Jan 1 2013. I say that because the fans are getting to the point that Lions fans were under Matt Millen. This season Mike gets a pass as he inherited a bad situation. Next year he will get somewhat of a pass, as well, but if 2012 is another crappy season fans are going to stay home or show up with bags on their heads, etc. Seriously these NFL ticket prices are a ripoff considering you are watching medicore football with the exception of a few elite teams that you can count on one hand. The FO needs to get a real plan with regards to building the team with younger players and drafting a lot smarter. If Snyder wants to drop a load of dough, he should get the best scouts in the game or just enlarge the # of scouts to evaluate potential draftees, young FAs and UFAs so we can find some real gems like Torain, AA, etc. If our FO drafts smart, doesn't give up any picks, and uses it to address needs of the team, I will rescind my 2013 prediction, but if the same silly crap occurs, I will hold to it. Just too much stupid shit thus far from the Mike and Bruce show so far for me to drink any kool aid.
