I really wanted to just ignore this rather than pile on, but since I cannot open up my Twitter feed without seeing Eric Ebron‘s name, I figured it was my duty to further expose the fraud he is.
As you know, Ebron has been extremely salty and sensitive since parting ways with the Detroit Lions following the 2017 season.
Ebron has routinely taken shots at the Lions and their fan base and for whatever reason, he continues to allow Lions fans to live rent-free in his head, despite not being part of the team for over two full years.
The latest example of this has been going on for the last couple of days and we figured we would share it with you (courtesy of 97.1 The Ticket since Ebron blocked us), just in case you needed a rent-free room of your own.
Like on Monday, when Ebron felt compelled to respond to a poll asking whether the Lions gave up on him too soon. “Nope y’all should have let me go sooner,” he said. Then he decided to like a post blaming Matthew Stafford for the Lions’ inability to get more out of three first-round tight ends.
(Nevermind that T.J. Hockenson has played all of 12 games in the NFL.)
That naturally riled up Lions Twitter, which naturally riled up Ebron further. So it goes. For whatever reason, Ebron can’t put Detroit behind him.
No, he said. He wasn’t bashing Stafford — only the bums that root for Stafford’s team.
Bash stafford??? u sensitive bums — I love stafford y’all again BUMS the reason no one wants to be there —— I hope we don’t have a season so y’all can finally see a winning one –‼️–‼️

We should pause here to point out some irony. For all the losing seasons on the Lions’ ledger, Ebron played for three winning teams in his four seasons in Detroit. In fact, the Lions’ 36-28 record from 2014-17 is one of the best four-year stretches in franchise history.
No, nothing to brag about. But let’s not pretend Ebron was suffocated by some toxic, losing environment. Want some more irony? When Ebron *wasn’t* on the field during the same stretch of time, the Lions went 7-1.
Anyway, the spat went on and on, and Ebron even circled back Tuesday morning.
Y’all take more L’s than any organization — u never Win —

But he’s over it, right?
