The Art of Losing - a podcast by Jeremy Shere

Welp. Deano, Lomas, and Uncle Brother Ted can't help but marvel at the magnificence of the Lion's 48-45 home loss to the Seahawks. Just when you thought the Roar had truly embodied every possible form of losing and sucking, they find a way to keep losing and sucking in new and inspired ways. Let's just say that the loss was not boring, insofar as the disparity in talent and productivity between the offense and the defense is literally path-breaking. Never before has a team led the league simultaneously in points scored AND points allowed. The Lions offense is truly a high-powered force, leading the league in scoring and total yards and in the top three in every other meaningful offensive category. The defense, meanwhile ... How to say this politely? ... SUCKS DONKEY BALLS SO LARGE THAT THEY ARE LESS LIKE BALLS AND MORE LIKE HILLOCKS. Collectively, the defense gave up 500+ yards, made Geno Smith look like Roger Fucking Staubach, and made some random running back look like Butch Woolfolk. Alleged emerging superstar Jeff Okudah got torched again and again by DJ Metcalf, who had a Player-of-the-Week type game.

Anyroad ... We mentally prepare to uncage Fantetti, bracing for the onslaught of rage and self-pity ... But all for nought, As the Pesto Wonton King drops out to spend more quality time with his stupid family!

Deano speaks of watching the game while rolling with his two youngest sons, both of whom are following Daddy Deano down the dark and dingy path of competitive bowling. God speed.

Lomas holds forth on the "Art of Losing", the very art he claims the Lions have truly perfected. Because, let's face it, this loss was really astonishing and even, perhaps, inspiring.

We all predict a loss next week on the road in New England. Uncle Ted predicts the score will be Lions 73, Patriots 82. 

We conclude with a gentle ... Meow!?! That's right, bitches. We meowed our little hearts out, and we enjoyed it.
