MONDAY FEATURES: QUOTE OF THE WEEK, OBSCURE FACTOID

QUOTE OF THE WEEK




"Sandy Koufax would be a great pitcher -- if the plate was high and outside."

-- Early scouting report on the Hall of Fame pitcher. Obviously, he corrected that problem.


OBSCURE FACTOID



Heads we win, tails you lose

The Lions are the only NFL team to lose an overtime game on a kickoff return. Dave Williams of the Chicago Bears took the OT kickoff 95 yards to paydirt to beat the Lions 23-17 on Thanksgiving Day, 1980. The Bears had tied the game in regulation on QB Vince Evans' sneak with no time remaining.
