Have a spare 750K or so? The Lions would like to speak with you

If you know someone with Scrooge McDuck type cash (or actually know Scrooge McDuck), and they swim in pools full of greenbacks and/or have bags laying around their mansion with "$" printed on them, it must mean they have hundreds of thousands burning a hole in their pocket. If so, the Lions would like to speak with the rich SOB.

Why?

Scrooge McDuck

Wouldn't diving into a pile of gold coins BREAK YOUR NECK?

As written by Nick Cotsonika in the Freep:

The Detroit Lions are likely to be blacked out on local television when they play Sunday against St. Louis.

They still have more than 10,000 tickets remaining, team spokesman Bill Keenist said today. They need to sell out by 1 p.m. Thursday -- or 1 p.m. Friday, if they get an extension from the NFL -- to avoid a blackout.

Just as I expected, Sunday's game is almost assured of being blacked out.  When you have a pair of teams whom are 3-42 combined since September '08, I have to believe it doesn't deserve a sold out stadium. No fanbase, no matter how dedicated, is quite that deluded.

Not that I would hold it against you if you do attend. We all know there's nothing that feels better than getting liquored up at a tailgate, then vocally expressing your extreme displeasure with the state of the Lions and the incompetence of William Clay Ford. Please, feel free to BOO to your heart's content.
