As long as the Ford family owns the team, nothing will change.

Detroit (2-11) at Green Bay (5-8) @ 1:00 p.m.
The Lions are a sad little team. They are 0-6 on the road. Their offense is well below the league average in points/game, and their defense has given up more points than all but three other teams. They have lost five in a row. Their own fans show up at home games largely just to chant denunciations of the team president, Matt Millen. They haven’t made the playoffs, or even had a winning season, since Clinton was in office. Personally, I blame this all on Bush.
The Packers are 1-5 at Lambert Field this season (yet are bizarrely 4-3 on the road). They beat the 49ers last week, 30-19. Their final three games are all against divisional opponents. Brett Favre is One with the Undead. I got nothing else. (You know who I’m picking anyway…)

Take the Vikes..the JETS season ended last week..
I've got a dime on this game.

I'm still PO'ed that I can't watch tonight's game because it's on the NFL Network ... curses Comcast!
"Personally, I blame this all on Bush"
...well, DUH!
that is way too funny...
The Packers are 1-5 at Lambert Field this season
Where the hell is Lambert Field!
I'm hoping the Packers will at least scrounge up an 8-8 record.
Don't feel so bad so did Denver's
Ask Jon Carry
Jon Cary knows
Not so fast - Denver wins three, KC loses one and Da Broncs are in the playoffs
Before the Super Bowl, the NFL should have a "Toilet Bowl", pitting the worst NFC team against the worst AFC team. The "winner" could then proudly proclaim "We suck less than you!"
All joking aside...
William Clay Ford
He purchased the Detroit Lions in 1964 for $4.5 million...Detroit has won only one playoff game in the time Ford has owned the team.
Lambert Field, you know, where, uh, John Kerry would go after,you know, deer hunting: crawling on his belly, stalking the fierce deer, with his automatic rifle.
Then at the Lambert Parking lot he likes to grill some frech finger sandwiches called, uh, croissant-au-fromage, for local flavpr, and sip latte. Then he'd cheer for the Packagers.
Nice subtle slam on the haughty, French-looking Democrat, who by the way served in Vietnam.

My guess is that they're going to play on the airport runway at Lambert Field in St. Louis, MO.
