Bill Ford what Clark should have been

It's time to hand out a few game balls following the Detroit Lions' 31-13 loss to the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday afternoon at Candlestick Park:

Sorry, no game balls for players. None for the coaching staff. And definitely not team president Matt Millen.

The only game ball worth handing out this week is to Lions vice chairman Bill Ford Jr.

He had the guts to speak the truth following the Detroit Economic Club luncheon Monday when responding to a reporter's question whether Millen should resign his post in the aftermath of the team's 0-3 start this season.

Bill Ford is embarrassed for the franchise, for his father, owner William Clay Ford Sr., and for all of the disgruntled fans of the team.

The problem is his father might not be listening.

Let's hope his comments Monday spark the fire that burns down the Millen regime once and for all. Or hope that his father turns over control of the franchise to him.

If only clark had the balls to stand up to lamar Bill has breathed new life in to a stagnant franchise.

Hats off to bill for careing about winning
