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

Peterson will be gone soon enough, canning his ass midseason wont change anything.

Clark has shown us nothing that Peterson or Herm will be gone after this season.

We are haveing one of the worst 0-3 starts ever in the nfl and Herm has no fear of loseing his job that right there show's sign's of a poorly run franchise.

The way I understand it Clark has been representing the Chiefs at owners meetings et al for the past several years. He is no more a rookie than Herm is. Yet he still fails to act about the shitty football just like his dad did. I think it will take red ink to move him off the dime. Vote with your absence.

Before we go making a saint out of Bill Ford, its pretty easy to criticize his dad. The franchise has won a total of one playoff game since he took over the franchise in 1964. They were one of the strongest franchises of the 50's. I think the only franchise to match that futility is Bidwill's Cardinals.
