PLAYOFFS?!

Ok.  It is still a tad bit early to be looking to the NFL Playoffs.  But, Detroit's Comeback Kitties are making it appear that they will be playing football past Week 17 this season.  If the playoffs started today, the Detroit Lions would be playing the New Orleans Saints in a rematch of the Week 13 match-up.  From a fan's perspective, the idea of the Lions in the Playoffs for the first time since 1999 is phenomenal.  From a sports fan's perspective, I think its great to get one of the more classic franchises playing in January.  From a football fan's perspective, I don't see them making it past the first round.  But, we shall see.  Cross your fingers, toes, and any other appendage that you can think of.  Who knows, maybe the Lions will be Indianapolis Bound...

And in honor of the Playoffs, and Indianapolis...
