    Hey everyone! There is a weird cut around the 8:07 mark. Sorry about that. 8 days after uploading the video, the NFL copyrighted a section that I had to trim out. So instead of editing the video and reupload it, I decided to just trim the section out. It’s getting hard to edit these! The NFL are sticklers on their product (which is understandable) but I try my best to edit these videos in a way to avoid those copyright issues. Cheers!

    Aiden Hutchinson’s comment about how Dan makes football fun is a key for me. He also makes watching this team exciting and fun too. It is a game you know, not a business.

    I love Dan Campbell and what he has done for the Lions, a team I have followed through thick (rarely) and thin (most of the time), but his efforts would not produce anywhere near the results it has without Brad Holmes and Sheila Hamp, and many others. Dan is the real deal and after over fifty-five years of following the Lions I am finally seeing what a great football coach is. Joe Schmidt was an excellent coach but had nowhere near the support that Dan has.

  • @zarka223
    @zarka2238 күн бұрын

    I agree. I’ve never seen the Lions look this good and exciting. It all started with Shiela. Brad Holmes gets the right players, and Campbell develops them to their full potential

    THIS IS MY GUY. I've lived in Detroit my whole life, but I didn't become a Lions fan until 2021. Amon-Ra St. Brown was the first name I learned on the Brand New Lions. I saw a video of when he went undercover at a hospital, and spoke to a couple of nurses who were Lions fans. And when I learned that even early on he was giving back to the city of Detroit, I was like: T h a t ' s m y g u y. His jersey is the first sports jersey I've ever owned.

    Dan’s mom taught me in high school in Glen Rose Tx. At the time he played for the cowboys along with my favorite back, he Eddie George. I feel so bad looking back but I was young… lol I gave her a little Eddie figurine and asked if Dan could get him to sign it for me. She was kind and said yes. He either never had time or found it disrespectful, understandably. I now wish I would have asked to get his signature. At the time I was just a very big George fan and didn’t see things the way I do now and was just focused on trying to get it signed. But man his mom left a big mark on anyone who came through her class. I wasn’t the greatest student for the most part, but in her class I tried to be. I can see where some of his leadership comes from. I never got to meet him in person always saw his pictures in the locker rooms at high school. I’m a Tennessee titans fan and have never really had a second team. I can’t let anyone jump the Titans but for the last few years I think I have had a second team. I’m excited to watch not just Dan but the lions now and honestly if they get a Super Bowl before us so be it. TitanUp and go Lions!

    It took him a while to even get targets. It wasn’t until his game winning catch vs Minnesota that he started getting more targets. With his work ethic, it was just a matter of time before he became the receiver he is today.

    From my perspective, I see him as a human specimen. Emphasis on specimen. He is very inspiring but do I want to have that kind of regimen. No. What is 'great' what is 'average'? I have nothing to be great at (I was in music and was good, not great). I will not go down in the history books. He will. In a way it's Greco-Roman. On one hand, he was raised 'Lacedaemonian'. On the other, he possesses that intense Roman-esque 'ambition'. His parents have clearly melded mind and body into the competitor that he is but for what? Our entertainment? Riches? Certainly he is now a wealthy young man. I suspect his spirit is equally on par with the other attributes. Perhaps, vehemently atheistic? Perhaps, on fire the Lord whatever it may be. It doesn't matter. He is an interesting person that has pushed himself to be admired by other humans. Overall, I'm just happy that he's a Lion. If it weren't for Penei and then ARSB, these players, we would still be suffering our humiliating and ridiculous worst franchise in all of Sports history. Things are changing because of people like him.

    I couldn’t have said it better myself. Great comment! He was molded into greatness and I’m very happy he’s with the Lions. He’s an inspiration to the rest of the team as well. I’m sure his work ethic rubs off on the rest of the team and now the Lions proved they will reward that work ethic
