The Detroit Lions are having a horrible season, but the situation is even more pathetic than you might think. According to reports, the team doesn't want sports talk radio hosts to say mean things about the team and wanted the station that broadcast its games to fire a critical host. In the Twitter comments (from an article link) it sounds like the Lions organization has tried to do that to other broadcasters.
Absolutely pathetic! The team's ownership is more interested in avoiding criticism than actually winning games. News flash! Build a winning sports franchise and those mean talk radio hosts won't say as many nasty things about your team and your organization.

Agent says Detroit Lions demanded firing of 97.1 on-air talent; organization denies claim.
