Old Takes Exposed: A Dumb Blogger Made Fun Of A Lions Fan For Getting A Super Bowl Champions Tattoo Back In August

So I'm sitting in my living room last night just trying to enjoy the AFC Divisional Round game, hoping that one day the Browns may have a quarterback the caliber of Deshaun Watson Joe Flacco Josh Allen or Patrick Mahomes that will allow us to ever advance past that game.....when I get a little vibrate on my Apple Watch. A tweet with three laughing emojis on a reply from 6 months ago. Huh? Oh, it's referring to this blog I wrote on August 11th, 2023 in regards to the first dumbass Super Bowl Champs tattoo of the new season. 

Not sure who the bigger idiot is yet: the guy who wrote this blog back in August suggesting that the Lions were going to stink this year, or the guy who got the Detroit Lions 2024 Super Bowl Champs tattoo before the season started. The jury is still out, but one person is going to be egregiously wrong. I still think it's the Lions tattoo guy, but my goodness it's getting closer than I originally thought.

Here's a little excerpt from that gem back in August:

Hindsight is 20/20, but instead of hammering the Miss The Playoffs bet for +140, I kinda wish I was on the Lose In The NFC Championship for a 5x value of +750. I mean you'd essentially have a 49ers moneyline bet this weekend, and despite Dan Campbell and the Lions proving me wrong all year, that still looks like a very good bet. Although this doesn't seem to help the home team one bit:

He's definitely going to play, right? Has to. But I do remember what the great Brock Purdy looked like when he starts to lose his weapons, aka PJ Walker handing the 49ers their first loss of the season back in October. But either way, with the 49ers being 7 point favorites this weekend, this tattoo still looks pretty fucking dumb,

**Side note: even if they win the Super Bowl, isn't that tattoo still kinda fucking dumb?
