You have to love seeing the dawn of football season on the horizon. I’m especially excited about my Broncos, who have made a lot of great off-season moves. Training camps are about a month away, and at this point each team is filled with optimism about their chances. Unfortunately optimism can only go so far, giving way to reality.
I can across a story that made me bust out laughing – Detroit Lions QB Jon Kitna has predicted 10 wins for the Lions. This, being a team that only won 3 games last year (and playing in a bad division at that), and hasn’t won more than 9 games since 1995 – where were you in ’95 (I was stil in middle school)? Hey good luck to the Lions, but I’m not going to be putting a lot of stock into Jon Kitna’s optimism. The Lions are the Lions.
The main reason I wanted to mention this is because it gives me the opportunity to reinforce the notion that Jon Kitna and Smashing Pumpkins frontman Billy Corgan are the same person:
| Corgan | Kitna |
Apparently I’m not the only one who thinks so.
