Lions' Ndamukung Suh firmly sitting on NFL hot seat

OK, I'm back:Just waited in line for 5 hours to get a blender that was 40 percent off. Thanks Black Friday!Stomp ... not the musical:If the Detroit Lions keep playing like idiots, they're never going to be a legitimate concern to the Bears or Packers.The man upstairs ...:Who Ndamukung Suh spoke of after going smush-and-stomp on Packers guard Evan Dietrich-Smith has to be NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell.On a day when the whole country is watching #8212; particularly kids #8212; you just can't have that kind of nonsense. Expect quick and very harsh justice to be meted out. Just one request:New Cubs manager Dale Sveum will have me at hello if he benches the first guy who poses at the plate.Our top story tonight ...:A local station leads off its 10 p.m. newscast with the rumors of Kyle Orton coming to the Bears.Really? A backup possibly coming in to back up the backup is the top news story of the day?The equation:Tony Romo = Paul Rudd.This is how you do it:Attention NBA, and the #8220;super committee#8221; for that matter: Did you happen to see what MLB just accomplished?Huh?He's baaack:After going 3-1 with a 1.89 ERA last year against the White Sox, then-manager Ozzie Guillen had this to say about Royals lefty Bruce Chen: #8220;He owns us.#8221;Well, bad news Sox fans: Chen just re-upped with K.C. for two more years. This is Jeopardy:Question: Linebacker/end Robert Ayers, tight end Richard Quinn, guard Seth Olsen, and, following a slew of trades, receivers Demaryius Thomas and Eric Decker, oh and some guy named Tebow.Answer:How did Denver use the draft picks the Bears sent along with Kyle Orton in exchange for Jay Cutler and a fifth-round pick?BTW:That fifth-round pick? Johnny Knox.Not too shabby.That's more like it:Blackhawks.Now get No. 7 back out on the ice and maybe head home with a split of the circus trip.Mmm:Defrosting lobster.Thanks Black Friday:For giving us Arkansas/LSU and Hawks/Ducks while the rest of the world shops .Long snapper, short tenure:Jake Laptad.Tuned in:One last thing about Dale Sveum; his musical taste runs from Van Halen to Godsmack.Good, but not quite as impressive as Lou Piniella's devotion to Pantera and Insane Clown Posse. The quote:#8220;(Lions coach) Jim Schwartz has to get this under control.#8221;#8212; CBS studio analyst Bill Cowher, on Suh's ejection.
