Yeah who couldn’t see this coming? ‘In-house’ has been the working Lions theme now for a long time despite having zero success at it. Not to mention you can almost layout just how the interview is going to go.
Meaningless wins against bad teams at the end of the season? Check.
A Ford lackey that can continue to tow the company line? Check.
Probably likes Jim Caldwell and will keep him around? Check.
Able to fetch past episodes of Matlock and keep the Seneca flowing for Martha Ford? CHECK! CHECK!
Go ahead and keep those keys to Allen Park Sheldon!
