TOPIC: Pro Sports Quorum
[Jeanine] Monday, September 07, 2009 4:37:43 PM 
I am a Packers or maybe a Brett Favre fan, so I am actually cheering on the Vikings this season. I know some will call me a traitor and that is ok. I actualy cannot cheer for the Pack until Ted Thompson leaves the team. I am actually not here to talk about the Packers or Vikings or even Brett Favre. I saw this article today and thought it was pretty cool. I don't know much about the current Lions team and maybe this was posted here before but I thought I'd post it anyway: (also not sure about that whole woman comment)

Jim Schwartz prefers a Judas Priest CD to any book by a woman

By MJD

I appreciate it when an athlete or a coach is willing to open up about his personal life. We get too many standard quotes and pat answers. I'm interested in knowing the little details of a public figure's life, as you might have gathered from the standard questions I ask when interviewing someone.

Detroit Lions head coach Jim Schwartz, as it turns out, is extremely comfortable talking about that sort of thing. Among the personal tidbits he revealed to the Associated Press:

• He listens to Judas Priest and Iron Maiden
• He has a flame tattoo just above his right ankle
• He is, or at least used to be, an avid reader, plowing through 500+ pages a day
• He doesn't read books by women
