		<description><![CDATA[And the Faiders find a way to lose again, even in the offseason. No surprise here.

How pathetic Faiders fans are, bragging about sweeping the Chargers, when by doing so they snapped a 13-game losing streak against SD. Wow, you&#039;re 2-13 against SD in the past 7 years, impressive. But the reality is, it was a fluke, and Chokeland will be in the AFC West basement again this season.]]></description>

Only you pale and pasty cheaters would show up to criticize the winners of a fake poll that wasn&#039;t rigged by a fake league because somehow, beyond comprehension, you weren&#039;t handed the victory! Somebody call Robert Kraft or get Belicheck in here to figure out how to rig the next one!!! 

Haha - here, I&#039;m sending you an imaginary &quot;Shoulda Been Coulda Been Turkey&quot; to validate your concern. Enjoy.

I will also vote for the Lions because in my lifetime I have seen hype to often for my team. Please have a season and please actually live up to it!

If the lions were to start seriously contending - this area would go nuts!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I really don&#039;t know why people would want to see the raiders.  I mean I guess Al Davis might be fun to watch.  But I think he is way to old to be to crazy anymore.  

As far as the lions (the team I voted for) I like their coach and wouldn&#039;t mind seeing how he gets things done and would like to see more of the QB is he is healthy.  The real reason I picked the Lions is because if any team owes it to their fans its the Lions.  This is team hasn&#039;t had a winning season in what 100 years ??  Damn man at least give your fans something to watch and get excited about.  With the two DT&#039;s they have.  And the WR&#039;s.  This might be an exciting team.  If they push hard and get 2-3 players in free agency ( they might be able to this year because it looks like they might finally be a winner).  Give your fans who have nothing up in Detroit right now something to get excited about.  Hell give the players a chance to be on national TV.  I cant remember seeing this team in a national TV game in ages. Do the right thing Detroit.  Change your mind and except. (unless the Eagles are going to do it then in that case, don&#039;t)]]></description>
		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I really don&#8217;t know why people would want to see the raiders.  I mean I guess Al Davis might be fun to watch.  But I think he is way to old to be to crazy anymore.  </p>
<p>As far as the lions (the team I voted for) I like their coach and wouldn&#8217;t mind seeing how he gets things done and would like to see more of the QB is he is healthy.  The real reason I picked the Lions is because if any team owes it to their fans its the Lions.  This is team hasn&#8217;t had a winning season in what 100 years ??  Damn man at least give your fans something to watch and get excited about.  With the two DT&#8217;s they have.  And the WR&#8217;s.  This might be an exciting team.  If they push hard and get 2-3 players in free agency ( they might be able to this year because it looks like they might finally be a winner).  Give your fans who have nothing up in Detroit right now something to get excited about.  Hell give the players a chance to be on national TV.  I cant remember seeing this team in a national TV game in ages. Do the right thing Detroit.  Change your mind and except. (unless the Eagles are going to do it then in that case, don&#8217;t)</p>
