FAI Nuggets:

• Experts theorize that the sissification of this team is directly attributed to it's proximity to Canada

• The NFL schedules the Lions to play every year on Thanksgiving so people don't forget they exist.

• The Lions brass is slowly realizing that their offseasons may be better spent doing something other than trying to harass Barry Sanders out of retirement.
