The Lions wanted Cal running back Jahvid Best all along.
Coach Jim Schwartz told Michael Silver of Yahoo! Sports back in January that the Lions coveted Best as answer to their backfield problems. So he likes Best. We mean really likes Best.
“Some people watch adult videos on their computer,” Schwartz said. “I go to YouTube and watch Jahvid Best highlight clips. That’s what
gets me aroused.”
Lucky for Schwartz, now he can watch Best on film in the Lions facility regularly. It just might be a little uncomfortable if there are other people in the room.
UPDATE: First of all, we thought Schwartz was hilarious here. It was a joke, people. Second, Schwartz wants to clarify he didn’t say “aroused.” He did say the adult video part, but remembers saying, “That’s what gets me going.” Silver supports this version. So there you go.
