The Lions Rebuild, part 2

Detroit Lions front office circa 2008. Definitely not a stock photo. This post is part of a series. Click here for the introduction. Click here for part 1.Last week we talked about the ownership.

Wendy’s Jalapeño Popper Chicken Sandwich

Let me preface this by saying I bought this sandwich to try, but didn't eat it for almost 3 hours. So, I warmed it up in the microwave to bring it back up to operating temperature.

This seems a lot different from what I remember. It sounds like industrial goth on the lines of Ministry or KMFDM from the 90s.…
