...The Lions have played their games at the enclosed Ford Field since 2002, and before that called the Pontiac Silverdome home since 1975.
But one reporter in Tampa Bay apparently didn’t notice.....
And ahead of the game, a reporter asked Bucs coach Todd Bowles whether he was worried about the weather when the team travels up north:
“The weather has been a factor in some of the playoff games, even for the most prepared teams. Today it’s 13 in Detroit, which doesn’t compare to some of the temperatures. Any special plans to acclimate the team to not only endure but perform in those kind of frigid temperatures should you face them in Detroit?”
The question left Bowles momentarily speechless before he responded..

I know it was a women.
they are keeping her out of sight, rather than firing her.
And remember, diversity is our strength!
The article said “she”.
The NFL is dead to me—but with great comedy like this they could draw me back in....
For example—I would like to see a halftime show called “tackle practice” where the National Felon League use their wives and girlfriends as tackle dummies...
Lol.
The author of the article doesn't know those are 2 different stadiums. LOL...
I’ll give the reporter credit and suggest that you’re reading the statement in a way that it wasn’t intended.
Yes, he does. I understand why you wrote that, but I don’t think that at all. Considering he named the city, the Silverdome was located in, I think he knew they were two different stadiums.
moronic questions from reporters doesn’t surprise me
My take is the author thought Ford bought the naming rights to the Silverdome.
Black woman.
Gallagher played the clip on his national radio show yesterday, what a dumbass this lady was. He was talking when he was a beginner decades ago when he was a local weatherman and said something stupid that got him fired. The Silverdome has been leveled for years, the Detroit Pistons played there too. I was there for Super Bowl XVI, it was incredibly cold as well. Back in those days I saw many rock concerts there too, just memories these days.
That's funny! I would tune in!
Our local radio guys brought this up this morning, and one said he looked everywhere and cant find any mention of who the woman is or what outfit she works for.
To them - that was the real story.
Reminds me of the time CNN’s Areva Martin called out David Webb for his “White Privilege.”
She’d be perfect for The Biden Administration.
The media is going to GREAT pains to protect this DEIer. It would be easier to find Bigfoot than find out who this “reporter” is. Weird.
Send her a letter on fake NFL stationary stating that the Lions-Bucs game has been canceled due to cold and will be played the week after the Superbowl in Florida.
