Great T-shirt, and great move by Schwartz. His first year is a gimme. Unless they go 0-16 again, which is doubtful, anything he does will be a success. And I think he's a good coach.

When I was in high school we had a shitty football team that won like 2 games one year.
The next year the fired the Phys Ed teacher who was acting as head coach, and recruited a bona-fide High School Football Coach - one Ed Munson who had posted a successful season as head coach of Indio High School way out in the high-desert. His first year he had all these t-shirts printed up for every player to wear proudly, which read "Panthers Football: A NEW TRADITION" with the profile of a menacing looking panther's head underneath.
That next season they promptly went out and won ZERO games.
It was, I guess, a departure from the old tradition...only toward the wrong side of the win-loss column. That's what this reminds me of.....although, obviously in the Lions' case, there's no further room to regress.
