Smart AND funny? I'm in love.

Just to show that I'm not a total curmudgeon or hater of all Detroit sports management types(for the record, I really like Dave Dombrowski) heres a positive assesment Lions head coach and Lank favorite Jim Schwartz.

Maybe he's no threat to Dave Chapelle, but its nice to know the coach isn't a miserable prick either.

Jim Schwartz, Lions Head Coach: Right from the beginning, I can tell I like Schwartz. "I have no statement," he announces goofily, "so fire when ready." A reporter asks a dumb question about organizational 'mindset' this week, and where I would fire back, "What a stupid question," Schwartz accomplishes the same by cracking, "Well, I guess the biggest thing is that we're not here to find a QB, huh?"

He's light and interesting throughout, but his best lines come from a series of lame questions about what he felt he needed to fix when last season came to a close. "Probably the number one thing was my blood pressure," Schwartz replies in complete deadpan.

And how would the Lions approach the Draft? "With good decisions," Schwartz answers cheerily, "so that my doctor can cut my Lipitor."

The delivery is pitch-perfect, and all of the sudden I'm kind of a Lions fan.

I know the feeling.
