NBC s Mike Tirico had Detroit Lions fans growling after saying the teams victory over the Kansas City Chiefs on Thursday has an asterisk.
The Lions beat the reigning Super Bowl champs , 21-20, in Kansas City, spoiling the opening-night celebration of their title.
This has an asterisk because of no Chris Jones and no Travis Kelce, Tirico said on Thursday Night Football, referring to the Chiefs star defensive lineman, who is holding out for a new contract, and their star tight end, who was out with an injury.

Mike Tirico with an all time bad take and now its bulletin board material.
Hope the @Lions wear shirts with an asterisk on them for warmups next week.
