But the fans may not have much imput in the decision process in this matter. But there is one thing the fans do have alot of imput in, & that is attendance, or the lack thereof. It is utterly shocking how many fans fail to show up for the Lions games. I would love to go to a Lions game, but I live in Mississippi, so it would be hard to do.
