Summary:
'I Don't Believe It' is a humorous look at the frustrated Detroit
Lion fan since 1970. The memories from all three stadiums over 36
years of Lion football, and how fans have coped with the losing, make
this book a must for sports fans. The author details the sad and
comical ups and downs of the passionate NFL fan, as they wonder if
they are losing their minds following the team they love. Highlights
include the top 20 'I Don't Believe It' moments since 1970, how the
Lions compare to the rest of the NFL, and summaries of almost 400
games from 1976 - 2005. Included are the 'Lion Jinx', a review of
coaches and quarterbacks, favorite players, the angry fan march and
the song 'gridiron zeroes'. Although the author is critical of the
organization, the main message is the passion Lion fans have for
their team, and how badly Detroit fans want a winner. We salute all
the men who have put on the Honolulu blue and silver jersey over the
years, risking injury for the money, the pride of representing
Detroit and the quest for Detroit's first championship since 1957. We
will always love our Lions.
