49ers crush hapless Detroit..
Frank Gore scored on a 1-yard run and topped the 1,000-yard mark for the fourth straight year, and the San Francisco 49ers moved within one win of avoiding a seventh straight losing season by beating the Detroit Lions 20-6 Sunday.

Alex Smith threw a touchdown pass to Vernon Davis and the Niners (7-8) forced six turnovers to close out the home season with a victory. San Francisco was eliminated from playoff contention with a loss last week at Philadelphia, but still can end its string of losing seasons by winning at St. Louis.

This, believe it or not, was the Lions 20th consecutive road loss. As they are closing in on their own record of 24 straight road losses set from 2001-2003.

Not only don't the Lions belong on Thanksgiving, but one has to wonder if they should even be in the NFL...

2. Why do you care so much?
The Lions have been around longer than the Forty-Niners. If you threw out every pro team that's had a slump -- even a prolonged one -- you'd have to throw out everyone.

Live and let live, Upton. Your contempt for Detroit is pathetic.

3. Now that's unfair
I may not subscribe to the silly notion that we all should root for Detroit's sports teams because the city's economy is bad, but I don't treat Detroit with any more contempt than anywhere else.

4. That's pretty impressive considering Gore's dismal performance..
28 carries for 71 yards=2.5 yards/carry. :wtf:

That is just embarrassing in front of the home crowd. And against Detroit?? Wut?

5. You should just admit that you're a troll.
Face it, even you can't be so dumb as to brag about beating a lowly team like Detroit after your team was already eliminated. You pop up in another forum and spout right wing shallow ass shit about women and get your ass handed to you even worse than you do down here.

Upton, you're a troll.

Go ahead and alert...time for the mods to see what we're all seeing.

15. That's classic!
That has to be the all-time slapdown at DU. I didn't think he could be a bigger douche than here in the sports forum but I was wrong.

7. Guys. Go easy on Upton. It's been nearly twenty years since the frisco kid
has seen a winner in Frisco. Hell, the poor guy has never seen a World Series Championship in San Francisco. It's gotta be tough, fork. You've had two of those in Boston in the last ten years!

13. That wasn't a race
The Tigers got near the finish line and decided they had time for a nap.
