Does Joe Theismann want Matt Millen's job?
Theismann said on Chicago radio station WSCR that Detroit Lions president Matt Millen "hasn't helped former players get into management because he's done a lousy job."
Theismann, who was recently axed by ESPN from "Monday Night Football" and replaced by Ron Jaworski, also said: "Could I or anybody do a better job (with the Lions)? I don't know. But it would be a wonderful challenge."

FORMER SUPER BOWL MVP: Taking over for Matt Millen would be a 'wonderful challenge'

Gettin rid of Millen would be the best thing, but they better get someone who can step up.

If they get rid of Millen, why would they take the same route and hire someone out of the TV booth? They should just hire an experienced executive. You want to hire an ex-player? Fine. See if Baltimore will let you talk to Ozzie Newsome.

Maybe they could even talk Ernie Accorsi out of retirement for a year or 2. Get someone who knows what they're doing.

That would be the ideal plan. But this IS the Lions we're talking about here.

I thought the whole idea was pretty funny. Talk about jumping out of the frying pan and into the fire. But then again,as noted, this is the Lions.

I think we should have a thread for hilarious and ridiculous ideas. This has to be one of the funnier ones. But then again, I think Theismann is an idiot.

You and I have never agreed so much on something!

An arrogant idiot at that...
