A fist full of Lions jokes, even after the season

No one is better than Jay Leno at keeping the Detroit Lions fresh in our memories, even a month after their dubiously historic season ended. The jokes just keep on coming, and each is just as funny as the one that preceded it. So without further do, here are five of my favorites. Keep in mind, Leno has been doing these for years, even since Johnnie Morton exclaimed, after the Lions won a game after being 0-12, "I want Jay Leno to kiss my ass!" (Leno actually did, because Morton sent a donkey out to L.A. for Leno to plant one on). And now the jokes (These are not verbatim, but as close as possible):

- On the Super Bowl and the NFL Experience provided for fans: "The Detroit Lions have a section, fans actually just put on a uniform, stand there and fans boo them and throw beer at them."

- On the upcoming NFL playoffs: "Well it's NFL playoff time... or as the Detroit Lions call it, 'Fantasy Football'.

- On the divisional round of the playoffs: "Lot of good games this weekend, Ravens are playing the Titans, Chargers are playing the Steelers, Lions are playing Guitar Hero."

- Relating the Presidential election: "According to Newsweek, sociologists believe that nine months after election day, there could be tens of thousands of what they call 'Obama babies.' Psychologists say this is not unusual, because a lot of people celebrate a big victory by having sex. That's true. See, that's why there's never been any Detroit Lions babies."

- On their accomplishment of becoming the NFL's first 0-16 team: "I don't want to say they're getting cocky, but some of the players are already starting to talk about doing it again next year."
