It’s a shame they don’t have a way for players on bad teams to go to teams more in a position to win, perhaps for future draft capital to help the bad team in the future. Man that would be cool.

Best part of Barry's doc was when he was talking to his old coach and his coach told him how Joe Montana wanted to go to the lions and the gm said he was to old and the gm did the same thing to Warren moon
Imagine Joe Montana and Barry Sanders on the same team with Herman Moore at WR
Now do Megatron.
So basically Detroit’s ineptitude sucked the passion out of him.
I thought it was interesting when they had Wayne Fontes talking with Sanders, and Fontes said he tried to get late career Joe Montna (going to Lions instead of Chiefs) and Warren Moon to come in, but the GM said they were too old. I didn't follow the Lions at all back then, but if true that sure sounds like a really interesting "What if..." scenario. They called Fontes the ultimate salesman, so maybe he was just saying that to make himself look better. But it's all interesting nonetheless.
