It's true. I'm a Lion's fan.
And as this picture suggests, it's a curse that has been a part of my identity for quite some time.
I understand that I could not have afforded this duffel bag at such a young age. That can only mean one thing. Someone bought it for me. Maybe my dad. Maybe my mom. Maybe some other family member or friend. Perhaps they intended only good to come from the gift. But here I am, at 30 years of age, still wondering if this might be the year that the Lions turn it all around.
Thanks to everyone who played along and left comments on Facebook and the blog. Ernie Fox guessed closest by suggesting I was wearing a Lion's jersey. So Ernie, your free book is in the mail!
Go Lions!
