Does anyone know why the NFL chose Detroit to host Thanksgiving day games year after year? Seems like they would have picked another team to showcase on Thanksgiving every year.

Detroit Lions Site: Lions Football and Thanksgiving
What I found with a search:
The Lions have hosted a game each year since 1934 (excluding the years 1939-1944 due to World War II), and the Cowboys have hosted a game each year since 1966 (excluding 1975 and 1977 when the St. Louis Cardinals hosted a game instead).
The first owner of the Lions, G.A. Richards, started the tradition of the Thanksgiving Day game as a gimmick to get people to go to Lions football games.[1] It is widely rumored that the Cowboys sought a guarantee that they would regularly host Thanksgiving games as a condition of their very first one (since games on days other than Sunday were uncommon at the time and thus high attendance was not a certainty).

[quote]Ahhhh, the Tex Schramm/ Tom Landry days. Schramm was one shrewd SOB. He can also be arguably credited with bringing cheerleaders to the NFL on a permanent basis. God Bless you, Tex.
