Detroit Lions - is THIS the year?

I've been trying to ignore them because I've been down this road before. The Detroit Lions manage to get the die-hard Detroit fans' hopes up only to crush them like a cigarette butt under their collective heel. Here we go again... The Detroit Lions are undefeated at 3 and oh! Yes it is just the pre-season, but maybe this could be the year they make the leap from perrenial pathetic cowardly lions to a fierce and competitive football team. OK, that may be a stretch. Is 8 and 8 too much to ask?
