Is it true that yesterday was the first time that the Lions and Pistons both won on the same day since NoMich got his driver's license?

LOL. I had to look this up. I found that the last time that both of those teams won on the same day was in 2017. The last time both teams beat someone that was over .500 on the same day was in 2010. The last time both teams beat someone by double digits on the same day was in 1973. I turned 16 in 1982 and the Pistons did win that night. So, you were half right.

And I can't believe that I even looked that up because my birthday is in March. By the way, my daughter was born on my birthday. That's like the Lions and the Pistons winning the World Series on the same day!

I've reopened the NFL Pickem on the three games delayed to Monday or Tuesday.
