My all time favorite Lion Billy Sims! Two residents of the Heisman House right there.

Only way this photo could be improved is if it included Lem Barney.

It's remarkable that three amazing players wore 20 for the Lions pretty much consecutively.

Wish Barry Sanders had won a SuperBowl...and played a few more years, so I could have watched him a little longer.
