Recap: Live Chat With Stoney Of Stoney And Bill
10:41 AM Welcome to the '971theticket' room.
10:33 AM Stoney971 ban: hello all
10:33 AM Stoney971 ban: welcome to the chat..
10:35 AM Stoney971 ban: your thoughts on lions and spartans
10:37 AM dgordo ban: Lions need to start playing with passion and heart again!
10:37 AM Stoney971 ban: its more of an urgency issue offensively if you ask me
10:38 AM dgordo ban: yes if it does not happen soon we will see the same Lions from years past
10:39 AM Stoney971 ban: thats the truth..this week is a big game..get to 6-2 at the bye would be huge
10:39 AM dgordo ban: could'nt agree more with you Stoney...its almost like they tessed us
10:41 AM MTU_971 ban: speaking of lack of heart, what'd you think of the Wings - Caps game?
10:42 AM Stoney971 ban: sorry MTU did not see it..was not what i expected the score to be thats for sure.
10:43 AM Stoney971 ban: fill me in why did they get killed so bad
10:43 AM gp ban: The lions are just not clicking on all cylinders, offense, defense, and special teams.
10:43 AM pt ban: what do u think about 3 and out
10:44 AM Stoney971 ban: gp, you are correct..tis a problem..their coverage on kicks and punts are horrible
10:45 AM Stafoooooooord ban: the wings got killed because of ty conklin and lack of offence
10:45 AM Stoney971 ban: amazing how many 3 and outs they had..its very tough when they are too one dimensional
10:45 AM MTU_971 ban: Penalty killing was an issue as well
10:45 AM Stoney971 ban: one crappy game by the wings i can accept.
10:46 AM Stafoooooooord ban: i just dont understand why ty is getting so much action. jimmy is more than capable of playing 60 games this year
10:47 AM MTU_971 ban: Maybe Babcock/front office is looking at Jimmy in a career sense, not a season.
10:47 AM Stoney971 ban: no problem with it..no sense to burn him out early
10:47 AM MTU_971 ban: Like a young pitcher
10:47 AM Stoney971 ban: good point MTU
10:48 AM dg1270 ban: People need to stop saying Stafford is a china doll. That injury could have happened to any QB.
10:48 AM MTU_971 ban: I guess I'm worried about the 7 goals in that the Wings just didn't seem too energized after they were down by 3
10:48 AM MTU_971 ban: previous years, that team could score in bunches
10:48 AM MTU_971 ban: Saturday, they looked beat
10:48 AM Stoney971 ban: that is very true dg..injuries are flukes unless its a matter of conditioning, which this isn't
10:48 AM staffoooooord ban: the nhl is so soft now a days with goalies. when brouder was in his 20's he was playing 75 games a year
10:49 AM dg1270 ban: when should we find out more about his injury?
10:49 AM staffoooooord ban: mri is today
10:49 AM MTU_971 ban: 75 games taking 15-20 shots thanks to the team infront of him
10:49 AM MTU_971 ban: and the system NJ played
10:49 AM Stoney971 ban: i think if you are paying guys a couple hundred K you want them to play a little..but you are right..goalies are getting like pitchers
10:50 AM Stoney971 ban: dont know if the NFL/Lions gesatapo will let us know the full extent of the injury
10:50 AM dg1270 ban: it was cool hearin the diesel this morning as your co-host
10:50 AM Mike ban: Before the injury, Stafford has looked different. IHis face doesn't have that confidence and fire. Is it just me or have you noticed that?
10:50 AM staffoooooord ban: if anything stafford will mis this week and maybe the bye. we can beat the broncos with shauney boy
10:51 AM MTU_971 ban: Mike, I think that the 5 week adreniline rush is wearing off. That mundane routine of week-in week-out may be, well, boring to the young guys
10:51 AM Stoney971 ban: diesel was fun..thats for sure
10:51 AM Stoney971 ban: Mike, I think he is a little worried about his offensive line, but wont admit it
10:52 AM dg1270 ban: maybe im a glass half full guy but for god sakes they are still 5-2
10:52 AM staffoooooord ban: or maybe hes too busy thinking about what hes gonna do to his gf after the game. shes a rockett
10:52 AM Mike ban: True. He's had no time obviously and he's not the fastest guy in the world
10:53 AM Sean von ban: do you think is arm is hurt that why his throwing technique has been more sidearm?
10:53 AM MTU_971 ban: 5-2 is good, I think we're worried about not seeing the tendencies that won 5 games in the 2 games they lost
10:53 AM Sean von ban: or that what we saw in two or three of those five wins suggests with out that good fortune this may have been a 7 -8 win team
10:53 AM Sean von ban: now 9-10
10:53 AM MTU_971 ban: exactly
10:54 AM dg1270 ban: we all know the first 5 games they were pretty much playing over there heads. now they have come back down to earth a little and people act like they are going to lose the rest of their games
10:54 AM Stoney971 ban: hard to say ..i still think if they win Sunday, they will get to 9 or 10..but if they lose its gonna be a more difficult challenge
10:54 AM staffoooooord ban: the offense has looked liek ***
10:54 AM staffoooooord ban: they need to work the ball down the field more
10:55 AM Stoney971 ban: whats amazing is the national media was more impressed with them than the local media
10:55 AM Sean von ban: like mr sharp they just loved the story
10:55 AM dg1270 ban: i still see them winning 9 games maybe 10 if they get lucky
10:55 AM Spartyparty ban: i would like to see deeper routes more often but with this O-line, it may not be possible
10:56 AM staffoooooord ban: that may not be good enough for a wild card spot
10:56 AM staffoooooord ban: f green bay
10:56 AM Sean von ban: maybe that just being cynical but i dont belive they say much at all that isnt scripted for impact. disengenious
10:57 AM dg1270 ban: whatever that means
10:57 AM staffoooooord ban: wtf r u sayin
10:57 AM Stoney971 ban: it would be nice..but he underthrew a long pass yesterday
10:57 AM Sean von ban: it means they are fans of reporting and journalism and will hype anything that makes for a good story line over what they belive
10:57 AM staffoooooord ban: look at the year moss went wild. brady would throw it up. no matter what. calvin is better than moss was that year
10:57 AM staffoooooord ban: lets throw it up more often
10:58 AM dg1270 ban: still dont know wtf you are talking about
10:58 AM Spartyparty ban: the point is, if Calvin is that fast and that big, its a no brainer
10:58 AM Sean von ban: sorry cant help then stoney do you get what im saying
10:58 AM dg1270 ban: what are you evern referring to?
10:58 AM staffoooooord ban: stoney wants to get the f outtsa here. its almost 11 lol
10:58 AM Sean von ban: when the national media was going nuts for the lions,
10:59 AM dg1270 ban: oh ok then now it makes a little more sense
10:59 AM Stoney971 ban: i understand..the national stuff.they love the little engione that could..detroit the undergog team from the underdog cioty
10:59 AM Stoney971 ban: sorry about the spelling
11:00 AM dg1270 ban: stoney on a happier note, you are one lucky dude sitting next to sarah every day. good eyes candy

11:00 AM dg1270 ban: not so much
11:00 AM dg1270 ban: lol
11:01 AM Stoney971 ban: his sugar hoots are not as nice..lol
11:01 AM Sean von ban: what bugs me about that most is that most dont even see anything unethical about it. like sharp admitting he roots for the story last week. JERK
