ESPN.com sucks - Not the Lions

ESPN.com just released a list of the rankings of the NFL's best fans. Now I know that these lists are very subjective. But they've gotten me mad this time.

ESPN RANKED THE LIONS 31ST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That's worse than the Texans, Falcons, Dolphins, Rams, and Chargers. I just don't believe it. I haven't done any research, but I seriously doubt any of those teams could support 2 talk radio stations talking Lions 12 hours a day.

None of those teams have had to endure 50+ seasons with only one playoff victory. None of those teams have won approximately 6 games in the past 8 years. And teams like the Falcons and Rams have even had Super Bowl trips!

What do the Lions have that these teams don't? 20 Consecutive sell outs and 2500 people on the season ticket waiting list.

ESPN failed to actually look at fan support for teams, and instead just lumped bad teams and bad fans together. Let it be known, when the Lions win at least 8 games this year… the fan support will be there.
