The NFL has been ignoring the pre-Superbowl era for a long time. It’s not a league that’s built around its own history.

Well I'm still going to call them, the "Four-Time NFL Champion Detroit Lions."

Does that mean I can talk about the Three-Time NFL Champion Philadelphia Eagles?

Well, Pard, I'm only going to claim 2 & a half of those... as I broken my friggin' leg in 1957 and in 1935 I was only 9 effin' years old!

How can you not just love the hell... out of this guy?

Barkeep, keep 'em... coming!

Exactly my point. The Lions have never won a Super Bowl, but have a history of championships in the pre Super Bowl era, which the NFL and ESPN sports dudes ignore.
