Dear POD'ers,
It's Thanksgiving and that means only one thing - Lions football. Come to think of it two things: Turkey and Lions football (sort of sad not having Madden call the games though). As I make my way up to Utica, NY to visit the family, my girlfriend and I have all of our Lions gear packed and ready to wear PROUDLY on Thursday (well me anyway, not convinced she's fully on board yet). Anyway, I hope everyone on POD has a happy Thanksgiving!! I hope to talk to some of you guys during halftime of the game on POD. I'm hoping for a miracle here but a Win would be HUGE!!!! GO LIONS!!!!
ANSWER: Alas, as our wonderful moderator Sean pointed out the Lions certainly didn't go 3 - 10 in the 1990's on Thanksgiving!! LOL. I meant 3 - 7 (sorry mistype). The answer is the Lions actually went 7 - 3 during the 1990's on Thanksgiving. Not a bad record. Some great games were included - the smackdown Barry put on the Bears, the "Coin Toss" game vs. the Steelers, the dismantling of the Patriors (pre-Brady of course), etc.. Let's hope for some more great memories tomorrow!!!
