OK Jess, tune your TeeVee to Fox: history in the making: Gates to Ford Field are open: fans are chanting “Jar-ed Goff, Jar-ed Goff!” I’m so glad they finally decided to bring professional football to that facility! meanwhile, Somewhere on a golf course in California golfers are chanting “Math-ew Staf-ford!”

It was a great game Gig.  I only ever saw the Lions play in person at old Briggs (Tiger) Stadium and up in Pontiac. It'd be nice to see a game at Ford Field (the fans were awesome, they hadn't seen a playoff win since 1991  ). Except no way would I pay the prices they want for playoff and Superbowl tickets. On to San Fran and the West Coast Wackos (and the 49ers).

I used to go to Briggs / Tiger Stadium and sit in the snow too. Had season tickets at Silverdome during Billy Sims & Barry Sanders years. Lots of fun n but not a lot of wins. Saw lions at Ford Field during 0-16 year, used e go down and yell “ put in the big tight end!!!” -Dan Campbell he didn’t start Ame oft the bench &,got spotty playing time but things just seemed to happen when he was on field. I’ve got dollar store croc-like slip on sandals with lion logo on them. At Fall color Ride temps are about 50 and the Southern boys give me the horse eye like “ain’t you cold?!?!? Then ask if I’m I lions fan? I say “no” because I refused to live and die with that team every week! - now I am fully aboard the Bandwagon. Not many Detroit fans in this club But there are a few Billy and one guy that Carry’s a gallon shine container on his hip. All y’all are welcome aboard the Lions, Bandwagon- glad to have you- 2 more wins, Baby!!!

I have not seen any posts or read anything about Britman for a long time. Does anyone know if he's still riding?
He certainly is still riding. He is no longer a member of this board or of some Facebook groups where he disparaged the VRCC. Was Britman banned from this forum? Yes. I hope hubcap wasn’t collateral damage.

I hope hubcap wasn’t collateral damage. I miss having Britman on here. Don't want to speak for hubcap but my understanding is that his absence is voluntary. As for me, I don't read most of what is posted. Sometime deciding what to skip over is tricky. Having the PaM board helps. It would be nice if there were a better solution...

I can certainly understand Mike’s voluntary absence. I had one myself once. I hope he is well. I always thought he was one of the most thoughtful members on here. Hopefully he will return.

Just speaking for myself, since I actively stopped participating in the PAM forum my blood pressure has dropped back into normal ranges from being dangerously elevated... ...I'm sure spending 2 months in the hospital and losing ~50 pounds had nothing to do with it, I think it was all the PAM forum's doing...

Problem is: pants won’t stay up now, with weight loss so I’m spending $$$ on suspenders “I’m older now but still running… “Hope you are well! Take care my friend! Keep an eye on the BP please, I just had a scare and got to take an ambu-lance ride to Emergency : therapists said I was in danger of stroking out  Be well imma gonna stop hijacking motorcycle threads with health updates - I really hope Mike isn’t missing a member, he’s one of the good guys and I really enjoy riding with Him!

I found switching from carrying a sub-compact pistol to a full size duty weapon takes up the extra slack in my jeans nicely... Heh... Doing well, hope you are too!
