On April 25th, the Detroit Lions selected Georgia QB Matthew Stafford as the #1 overall pick in the 2009 NFL Draft. On Monday, Stafford appeared on The Late Show with David Letterman to deliver the "Top Ten Thoughts That Went Through Matthew Stafford's Mind On Draft Day". When you are expected by many to be the savior for a franchise that tossed up an 0fer in the win column during the 2008 regular season (something that many, including me, thought was impossible in a 16 game season), hasn't made the playoffs since 1999, and has won only 1 playoff game in a 50-year span, you damn well better have a sense of humor.

Candy: I have mixed feeling about the Lions picking Matt Stafford. Part of me wished they had used this draft to strenghten their defensive or offensive line. On the other hand, they need so much help that the Stafford pick may work out in the long run.
Jenny: lol
