Every time they said that, Lions' fans got angrier.

Never have been. I've been in the DC area since 1987, and have followed the Washington Football Team since then. I have never, ever seen anyone doing the Tomahawk Chop. That's not to say that the former name isn't racist AF and deserves to be on the trash heap of history. But at least they had some dignity.

I know they've been decimated by injuries, and I know how much it means to that city to finally have a football organization that knows what they're doing and finally have a football team that matters to a fan base who has suffered for generations...

Then I reminded myself that Michigan went red in the election, so fuck 'em 😐

Great game! Not a huge football fan, but that was a nice distraction from current events. Amazing how good management can really turn things around (ahem).
