Sheila Hamp is the best thing to happen to the Lions in a very long time. Ive NEVER seen any of prior ownership even talk about the team let alone do interviews or even wear Lions merch. She will forever be loved by Lions fans as she was the first owner to give a damn and actively works with the GM and coaches. Love me some Sheila

Agreed. Every winning organization has one thing in common: an energetic and inclusive organizational culture with a shared vision of excellence that everyone buys into. Establishing that is foundational, and, aside from signing paychecks, is an owner's most important role in the success of that organization. She's been amazing. Contrast that with Jerry Jones and the Cowboys. Or Daniel Snyder's years as Washington's owner.

The Lions wouldn’t be where they are without Sheila Hamp. Her leadership has made all the difference.

Sheila is one smart woman she asked questions and listened. She chose people, listened and let them do their jobs while assisting them and learned. She is a true leader.

I can think of no Lions owner more deserving of holding the Lombardi than Sheila. God bless this woman

Sheila is awesome! My brother works for a small company in northern Michigan and his boss is a Packers fan. Apparently, his boss met Sheila at some conference and he told her he was a Packers fan (this is about a month or so after last season ended). Without missing a beat, Sheila smiled and told him "you aren't going to like us very much for the next few years". I love it!

Kudos, Sheila. She deserves all of the flowers and more. Not only has the team's culture shifted, but even stadium experience has been elevated since she took over. Bravo!

I love our owner! She's a fan first, that's why we're winning.

My heart goes out for you! Lions Roar from the stadium makes my heart pumping! Go LIONS!!

I got tons of respect for Sheila man. Definitely deserves more credit.

I am not sure why KZread suggested this video to me, I don't watch video's on they Lions very often, but they did, and I watched. I am a Browns fan, so I connect greatly with the Lions fan base! I am excited to see what is going on in Detroit. I am impressed with Sheila and Steve and their leadership with the team. My brother works for the Lions, and he shared that to his knowledge, Sheila is the first owner who has an office at the team facilities. He also shared she seems to care greatly about those who work for the team. He previously worked for another NFL team, and he was in the elevator when the owner got on. He was asked to step off the elevator. Sheila knows his name and calls him by it. Steve even got into a goofy discussion on fancy socks with suits with him, and the next day, brought him a three pack of socks. That's the kind of owners you now have in Detroit, and it is awesome.

I love this little, soft-spoken lady with the easy smile and gentle laugh. Dan Campbell literally dwarfs her. However, I think that gentle appearance hides the heart of a fierce competitor who desperately wants to win. Her support of Dan and Brad has garnered her their respect, especially after standing up for them publicly last year when the team was 1-5. Like I said, a little lady but she has the heart of a lioness (😉). It would give me great satisfaction to see her lift up the Lombardi trophy. Props also to Chris Spielman for being instrumental in changing the culture and working tirelessly for the team. Time to see where we are with KC tomorrow.

My old football coach use to say “you’ll lose every game if you don’t have any heart! This game is about passion and if you don’t have it, it’s not for you!” Chris Spielman is the definition of that, he loves everything about football and the Lions and it shows up on game day with these young players.

It's pretty cool how positive she is, and this interview was done before the 2023 season.

This was a great interview. So glad Sheila listened to her mentor and developed her plan around what's the overarching goal and understood that meant everybody's energy, no matte how low on the totem pole had to be on the same page. As Dan Campbell has said, it takes a village, and that means the whole village and that includes a gritty city.

Honestly could not ask for a better owner. Never thought I would say that about my Lions after 47 years of Turmoil.
