    Glad I wasn't the only to applaud.

    Sorry for disappointing you, Seahawk.

    Cullen hasn't said anything about Kitna's costume (I don't think). This was started by Drew Sharp at the Freep, saying it was a bad idea.

    There were some Lions' teammates that thought it was funny and ok. And most TV announcers around here have said (either on air or in blogs) it's not a big deal.

    Jemele Hill was on Cold Pizza Firstake today.

    She said Cullen has come out with a statement that said he was OK with this.

    She also tried to draw a parallel with the Mitchell/Fontes situation, saying that when Mitchell pulled that stunt, the Lions' season fell apart.

    Excuse me, it's a f..king Halloween costume! Get a grip!

    Seems like my initial reaction to this was wrong, and Cullen, the Lions, etc. are all fine with this. I read too much into the column, and I was under the impression that Cullen was not happy or amused with the Kitnas costume.

    Maybe Cullen doesn't have the issues I thought he had, or at least he isn't addressing them. Maybe he is comfortable with other people mocking his situation. If that is indeed the case, I retract my earlier comments.

    I've got a brother and an uncle who have done significant damage to their lives and others with the bottle (they have a combined 3 DUIs/multiple firings between them). That being the case, I admit, I'm a little sensitive to making jokes about drunk driving.

    If Kitna and Cullen can laugh together about that specific situation, I shouldn't judge.
