Should the Lions keep their Thanksgiving Day game?

[BlackHitachi]

Didn't we discuss this before? Let me repeat what I said the first time -

We invented this tradition! Don't want to watch the Lions? Change the channel. Oh yeah, those other match-ups were really exciting too.

AGREED!:up

Hitachi, the bet's over.

It's the day after Thanksgiving; you can switch back to a Longhorn-avatar.

get rid of them. i'm fine with dallas since they're usually a good team but detroit has stunk for too long.

So its' ok to watch Dallas whoop someone but not ok to see Detroit get the crap kicked out of them?

The Lions own a 33-30-2 record on Thanksgiving Day, Dallas has a 23-14-1 record
Someone wins and someone loses. There is no way to predict that you will have a close game over a year ahead of time.

They should leave it the way it is. A lot of people are eating when the Lions are on anyway so it shouldn't matter. If you don't want to watch it, watch the Dog Show.

I think the better question is : What have the Lions done to deserve having a franchise in Detroit? I cannot remember them ever being a significant threat to win anything.

The city of Detroit and fans deserve a team. They still support regardless of the record. The team needs new owners.

 

[Kevinw]

Keep it. It's the only thing the Lions fans have to look forward to.

Very true

I agree with KevinW. The owners, cough, Millen, cough, screwed the team up. They were ok until he showed up. Why did they even hire him anyway?
