We in the Motor City know that our Detroit Lions have gotten the short end of the stick from NFL officiating crews one too many times.
And while there may not be any statistical evidence that shows an inherent bias against Detroit from the League, we were treated to yet another example that will have Lions fans everywhere scratching their heads.
We all remember when Jamie Collins was ejected for making contact with an official, despite the fact that he was merely trying to demonstrate what an opposition player had done to him.
However, Kansas City Chiefs wideout Tyreek Hill made intentional contact (albeit in jest) with an official during today’s game and…nothing.

Do you think things would have been different had it been a Lions player making contact with an official rather than a member of the Chiefs?
