A lot of people are feeling down on their luck today. With no Detroit Lions football to look forward to this week, this place is in serious need for some levity. Thankfully, The Detroit News’ Justin Rogers dropped this wonderful piece of content right into our laps on Monday.

I checked the report. Turns out Jim Caldwell has a history of sideline emotion.
