Would 8-8 be acceptable to Lions fans? Surely you jest. One playoff win in the last half century. More recently the Great Millen Depression including an 0-16 season, and they're still there. Give them 8-8 and they'll be dancing in the streets like they just won the Lotto.
The video wouldnt roll but it doesnt matter. Lion fans are lemmings with a net at the bottom of the cliff so they can keep coming back because they just dont know any better.
