I was born and raised in the suburbs of Detroit and proudly call it my home. I came by my fanatical Detroit Lions ways naturally as it was passed onto me by my father and I am now passing it on to my own daughter, though not to the same degree I am infected with it. While I am a man for all seasons with the Tigers, Pistons and Red Wings, I always return eagerly to the clutches of the Lions. God, family and Detroit Lions football, what more could you ask for?
