Mark Your Calendars (and Maybe Stock Up on Tums): The Preseason is Here
Fear not, loyal Lions fans! Before the regular season kicks off and your Sundays become a rollercoaster of emotions (mostly disappointment, sprinkled with a touch of hope), the preseason is here to provide a delightful appetizer. The Detroit Lions' first preseason game is on Thursday, August 8th, against the New York Giants. That's right, folks, it's time to dust off your jerseys (or, if you're feeling optimistic, maybe buy a new one?) and get ready for some primetime... well, pre-primetime... football.
QuickTip: The more attention, the more retention.
Now, here's the thing about the preseason: it's a mixed bag. You get to see the rookies in action, some trick plays, and maybe even a glimpse of what the actual starting lineup might look like. But let's be honest, it's mostly backups and fringe roster guys fighting for a spot. So, while the intensity might not be there, it's still a chance to see your team in action and, more importantly, tailgate with your fellow fans.
Tip: Slow down when you hit important details.
But Wait, There's More! (Because the Regular Season is the Real Deal)
The first REGULAR season game for the Detroit Lions is on September 8th, where they'll face off against the Los Angeles Rams. Now, this is the real deal. This is where the wins and losses count, where dreams are made and shattered, and where your heart rate will likely reach levels previously reserved for sprinting away from a rogue shopping cart.
QuickTip: Revisit this post tomorrow — it’ll feel new.

Tip: Reading twice doubles clarity.
