4 hours to game – Number 20 – Another One Bites The Dust
Those fans under thirty years old won’t remember a similar fast start to open the season for the Detroit Lions. But back in 1980, the Lions started the season 4-0 and little known but flamboyant defensive back Jimmy ‘Spiderman’ Allen recorded “Another One Bites the Dust” with some teammates a la the Bears ‘SuperBowl Shuffle’. Unfortunately, the Lions finished the 1980 9-7 and missed the playoffs, losing the tie-breaker to Minnesota Vikings. Today, will we make sweet music in the Big Easy? Because of this, we WILL win today.
