Detroit Lions

Mistakenly listed as the worst franchise in NFL History. Only known for performances in last few decades, never given consideration for the above average performances for the other approximately 60 years of franchise history.
Franchises considered to be worse, starting from the worst:

Cardinals-First from Chicago, then St. Louis, then, Phoenix, now Arizona. Most losses. In their 80 years of existance... 8 playoff appearances. No one wants them.

Saints-AKA 'Aints'. Only recently have their performance turned around, thanks to Drew Brees.

Texans-Haven't been around that long, but their performance is still horrible other than VERY recent. Worst winning percentage at 33.3%.

Falcons-Despite recent performances and their famed 1977 defense. Nothing. Riddled with losing seasons and scandals.

Bengals-No Championships, losing record. Only 12 winning seasons of 40.

Buccaneers-Home of the FIRST defeated team 0-14. Second Worst Win Percentage 39.3%. Their only Superbowl win is considered a fluke.

Bills-They missed the Superbowl win four times in a row.

Seahawks-No championships even with a great coach. Only team to go to the playoffs with a losing record.

Detroit Lions-Not the best team, but not the worst. With four championships although many, many years ago. Failures to win in the playoffs except once since 1957, and of course no Superbowls. Even if they are the few to yet win one, and to have a defeated season 0-16. I feel, though, the Lions are emerging from the abyss to become a contender for decades to come.

I would list a site which gives extremely detailed and accurate information, but it's cold hard football facts dot com. hint hint.

Isabella de' Lioncourt

The beautiful artist that Louis de' Pointe du Lac falls in love with, the daughter of Lestat de' Lioncourt and sister to Christiana de' Lioncourt. Her best friend is Horizon, who was at one time a bride of Dracula. He turns her the second night he meets her, under the moonlight he grants her the kiss of the vampire. He wants her to be his eternal bride of darkness, and his soul-mate for eternity.
Thy beauty is to me
Like those Nicèan barks of yore
That gently, o'er a perfumed sea,
The weary way-worn wanderer bore
To his own native shore.

~ A poem from Edgar Allen Poe that Louis de Pointe du Lac quoted for Isabella de' Lioncourt, whisking her away into the beckoning night to be his eternal queen of darkness.

Over time, The Spice Girls somewhat unfortunately became lionized. Thankfully those who did this finally woke up and plunged The Spice Girls into a pit of global hatred. Justice has been served.
