Millen-less Day #1

This video from over at Tirico Suave was too hilarious not to comment on. Enjoy their work if you haven't already.

I can't get over how great this liberation from the tyranny of the Millen Era feels. It's like a torturous ruler had been suppressing an entire nation for decades until somebody finally put him out of his misery and shot him in the forehead. It's like Hitler died. It's like Saddam was captured. It's like we finally figured out how to take down the enemy spacecrafts in Independence Day. It's like Simba defeated Scar and restored order at Pride Rock. It's like it rained for 7 straight years -- not just a drizzle but a fucking monsoon -- and the clouds finally opened up and let some sunlight in.

And oh the camaraderie. People honking horns, calling their friends, calling in sick to celebrate, conceiving children out of boundless bliss and uncontrollable joy. Seemingly everyone I know who is a Lions fan, even fringe Lions fans, have found a way to express their happiness whether it's via telephone, email, Facebook status update, blog post or whatever. This was our Berlin Wall, and it has been torn down. The general manager void could be filled by Osama Bin Laden and we wouldn't care. Millen is gone.
