Congrats Lions. This was the only entertaining game of the weekend.
- I dunno, GB vs Dallas was a great game for me as a Philly/KC fan ;)
  
  How in the hell are you both a Philly and a KC fan? Are you Mrs. Kelce?
- I was hoping the Green Bay v Dallas game was going to be entertaining…I am disappoint
  
  It was entertaining as long as what you wanted was to see Dallas getting destroyed.
  
  That was a truly awful showing, and coaching was a huge part of it. You know they want to bully you, they do, and you're just sitting in two high soft zones that also don't defend the pass all night.
  
  If they fire McCarthy's ass and bring in Bill that team is a wagon though.
- Yeah, that was an awesome game. I'm a fan of both teams, but I wanted the Lions to do well because it's been way too long.
For the first time in Lemmy history!
- Almost the first time in the history of the World Wide Web itself.
  
  The World Wide Web was publicly released in August 1991, and the Lions last won a playoff game in January 1992.
  
  There were only 2 websites in the world the last time the Lions won a playoff game. The third website ever was registered in February 1992.
A good day for football.
- I don't get the people that were disappointed with quality playoff football this weekend. We got to see the Packers, who nobody expected to make it to the playoffs, absolutely smoke the Cowboys. We saw Andy Reid grow icicles on his mustache like a walrus. Then we saw the Lions win a playoff game for the first time since BEFORE WINDOWS 3.1 was released, in a super close game. What more do you people want?!
