Leave it to Detroit Lions to be outsmarted by Australian rules punter

G'Day mate.

Today, I’m going to tell you how a punter put the Detroit Lions on the old barbie and burned ‘em real good.

Not just any punter.

A rookie punter from Sydney, Australia.

“Big Balls Dickson,” as his teammates were calling him, after Seattle downright embarrassed the Lions, 28-14.

Which brings up a sobering question: How bad were the Lions on Sunday?

It got so bad the Lions were totally outsmarted — by a freakin’ punter.

“There was just so much space,” Michael Dickson said, after his gutsy — OK, downright crazy — play that sealed Seattle’s win.
