Wait! I can’t go to the lions! I CAN NOT go to the lions! Because I know for a FACT that lions only eat Christians! And I am a Jew! Jewish person!

everything the light touches is our kingdom…lion wins
Wow…Cambodia rocks.
Anyways I was just envisioning the possibility of a ram cornering the lion and pummeling it kamikaze style. That would be one badass upset. Still, the lion would probably win.
This is an unfortunate seeding for Ram, who might actually come off less helpless anywhere else. But come on, look at that picture of Lion.
I vote bloodthirsty animal.

@ yak – You need 20 hours of rest when the other 4 are for murder.
DigitalDan, I like your “matt millen has fucked the detroit lions so bad that all lions are now slightly weaker” logic. But even if we’re talking about 75% effective lion vs. 100% ram….
/votes lion \m/
I’m taking Lion here because Scar in the Lion King was a real badass who got the short end of the stick…
Hmmm…this is a tough one. Is Matt Millen in the lion’s corner?
If so, I may have to vote Ram.
Gotta go Rams here. The NFL Lions have sucked so hard for so long, they have adversly effected the self esteem of all actual lions.
@ QuietStrength
Yes, but don’t forget, lions have the experience in the ring. In Roman times fighting in the coliseum, and more recently, decimating the Cambodian Midget Fighting League.
@ quiet
the female lioness is used to hiding in the tall grass, they do all the hunting, but as the kill kill kill has shown, a lion will chase down whomever fucks with his kill and snap their fucking legs off…advantage lion
It looks like that lion just gave oral to a menstruating female lion.
If you can dodge a lion, you’re probably an average quality NFL RB.
I have to weigh in here with a serious comment. This one has some upset potential. Lions are used to being able to hide in the tall grass, then sneak up on prey from behind while rams run straight at you head first. In a closed pentagon, a ram would have the advantage.
/still voting lion
if you can dodge a lion, you can dodge a dog
You can get past a dog, but no one fucks with a lion.
I gotsta agree with bambi, one of the cool things about lions is that they sleep something like 20 hours a day. The other 4 hours are for killin’.
for some reason i still associate the rams with Kurt Warner. we are so close to a Kurt and Kitna here.
what do you mean their name doesn’t describe their principal action? they’re always lion around, ZING
/shows self out
If this were Detroit vs. St. Louis they’d both gag to death on their own vomit. After they both shit the bed, of course.
Uncastrated, you bitch-ass sheep!
Don’t talk shit, ram, you never know when you might run into Grey Ruegamer.
