Detroit's pursuit of perfection

It's long since passed being a joke . . . the Detroit Lions are now only one loss away from having the perfectly imperfect season. No team in NFL history has lost all 16 regular season games. That's bad, but it still doesn't justify this:

Detroit News columnist Rob Parker asked coach Rod Marinelli, "On a light note, do you wish your daughter would've married a better defensive coordinator?" Parker has been a consistent critic of Joe Barry, the team's defensive coordinator and Marinelli's son-in-law. Marinelli ignored the question. But Fox analyst Terry Bradshaw didn't. On the post-game show, the Hall of Famer said, "You know, Rob, you're an idiot. You're just a flat idiot. You have disgraced your profession and they ought to kick your butt out of the locker room."

Bradshaw is right — Parker is a disgrace.
