I'm assuming that's a burn on the Vikings.
As you know, most dildos are exported from Asia.
The Lions graciously accept your generous grade of "D". It's an improvement from 0-16, which I think is an F.
But of course, after their 0-16 2008 the Lions posted an improved 2-14 for 2009. Hot stuff.
They beat Washington to break their losing streak. In case you're playing along at home.
