I had the distinct displeasure of watching the hapless Lions lose their 10th game of the season today (0-10-1). As I watched, I started to think to myself, “I feel like the Lions play and lose on Thanksgiving Day every year.” I did a little research and found that they have played at home on Thanksgiving every year since 1934 — except when games were paused from 1939 to 1944 during World War II. They have a Thanksgiving Day record of 37(W)-43(L)-2(T). They have only won 4 times in the last 15 years and have now lost 5 years in a row! Can the NFL please stop the madness!!! Can we get a better team featured in this high-profile annual slot? Who’s with me??? What team do you think the league should feature lieu of the Lions? Sound off in the comments section.
