It’s easy to love new Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell. His intensity and energy have brought excitement back to the Motor City after three seasons of mediocrity under Matt Patricia.
But it’s also easy to label coach Campbell as a bit of a cartoon character. From his knee-biting introductory press conference that went viral to wearing a racing cycle helmet during a presser after being named the grand marshal of the Detroit Grand Prix to calling himself an A-hole for cutting longtime Lions long snapper Don Muhlbach on his 40th birthday; the Pride’s new head coach is at the very least entertaining.
