After one quarter of play, the Lions are up on Seattle by a score of 17-0. No, I'm not joking. The Lions are actually ahead 17-0 after the first quarter.

Friday Notes: Kevin Smith Returns to Practice

- Kevin Smith returned to practice on Thursday, splitting No. 1 reps with Maurice Morris. Calvin Johnson also practiced again on Thursday. It appears both will be game-time decisions for Sunday's game, but if I had to make a prediction right now, I'd say that the Lions will have all of their offensive weapons against Seattle.
- A lawsuit against Dennis Northcutt that brought about some pretty serious accusations was dropped.
- Although twins are on the way, Nick Harris will be with the team in Seattle this weekend.
- Unlike Julian Peterson, Sunday's game is not circled on Cory Redding's calendar.
- Chris Osgood used to be a Seahawks fan, but the Lions are his favorite team now.
- This year's Thanksgiving game halftime show will be "A Motown 50th Anniversary Tribute." For more information, click here.
- The 49ers signed former Lions cornerback Keith Smith and already released Carson Butler from their practice squad.
- SB Nation's mid-season studs and duds awards are out.

Thursday Notes: Calvin Johnson Practices, Kevin Smith Sidelined with Shoulder Injury

- Although he was listed as limited, Calvin Johnson practiced on Wednesday with the No. 1 offense. That's a good sign, because even Matthew Stafford was listed as limited in practice. He was listed as limited last week as well, but he obviously ended up playing. For Calvin, it looks like he will be a game-time decision, which is probably what Kevin Smith will be as well. Smith missed yesterday's practice because the shoulder he injured during the Rams game is still sore. If Smith is unable to play on Sunday, Maurice Morris will step in as the starter, and you can probably expect to see more of Aaron Brown as well.
- Jason Hunter finally returned to practice after missing a couple games. It would be nice to get him back for this weekend.
- Wide receiver Eric Fowler has been signed to the practice squad by the Lions.
- It looks like Manny Ramirez and Jon Jansen are competing for the starting spot at left guard.
- Danny Amendola, the returner that got lit up by Zack Follett, has a concussion. When asked about the hit, Amendola said this:
"The hit didn't hurt, but my mind wasn't working," Amendola said. "I walked off, I think. Just got my head buzzed a little bit."
Zack Follett: he will hurt your mind. - Roy Williams complained to the media about how Tony Romo's passes to Miles Austin are thrown much better than when they go in his direction. I still can't believe we got a first- and third-round pick for him.

Lions Announce Details of "Pride of the Lions" Display

Press release from the Detroit Lions:
The Detroit Lions will unveil the team’s Pride of the Lions, a permanent stadium display honoring the greatest players in team history, during a celebration at halftime of the Lions’ November 22 home game at Ford Field against the Cleveland Browns. The Pride of the Lions includes a 12-member charter class.
"The players who will be honored represent the very best of the best to ever play for the Lions," said Lions President Tom Lewand. "It is an honor to induct them as our Pride of the Lions charter class. The names of other Lions’ greats will be added to the Pride in the future but we could select no better representatives for our first class than these 12 standouts."
The Pride of the Lions will be a very visible feature on the old Hudson’s warehouse of Ford Field (south suite levels) that will include the players’ jersey number, name and years played with the Lions.
The charter class is a collection of the most outstanding Lions’ of all-time. All 12 players are members of the Pro Football Hall of Fame, and they represent virtually every generation of Detroit Lions Football.
During the halftime ceremony, members of the Pride of the Lions charter class will be announced accompanied by photos and highlights of their careers. Upon the conclusion of the introduction, the names of the charter class will be simultaneously unveiled.
The Lions have 13 Hall of Famers to choose from for the 12 spots, so I wonder who will be part of the first "Pride of the Lions" class. The 13 Hall of Famers are Charlie Sanders, Barry Sanders, Lou Creekmur, Lem Barney, Doak Walker, Yale Larry, Dick Lane, Joe Schmidt, Jack Christiansen, Alex Wojciechowicz, Bobby Layne, Bill Dudley, and Earl Clark.
