DETROIT—Euphoria gave way to deep, unwavering depression Sunday when

fans celebrating the Detroit Lions' first win in two years realized the utter

insignificance of the accomplishment, and how pathetic their

unadulterated joy must have looked to the rest of the country.

"I actually jumped into the arms of a complete stranger because we won

against a team that finished in last place last year," Lions fan Joe Kula

said of the team's 19-14 victory over the Redskins.

"Celebrating a week-three victory like we just won a Super Bowl is not

only unwarranted, it is preposterous and humiliating.

We're a terrible football team. Oh, my God, we're so terrible."

A postgame effort by the Lions to build a victory stage at the 50-yard

line to honor the achievement was abandoned mid-construction
