Golden Tate

Michael Rothstein of ESPN.com overheard Lions receiver Golden Tate issuing out a challenge to his teammates, the organization and fans alike for the upcoming offseason:

“I challenged every man in here, coaches, trainers, fan base, players obviously, to go have the best offseason of your life,” Tate said. “We see how close we are as a community and that should encourage. Yeah, this season is over and it’s tough to swallow right now but, hey, the Detroit Lions are not done. We’re going to go out there and have a heck of an offseason and come back and be ready and be focused. This could be the start of something great, I think.”

You gotta love the enthusiasm from Tate, especially after the loss the Lions took tonight.
