Around Michigan, Lions fans are mourning the loss of this season as we got dangerously close to kissing the Super Bowl in their own ways. Some of us are making jokes, while others are choosing violence against anyone who they thought got in the way of the win.

Or maybe you can be like this Southwest Michigan radio station who is pointing the fingers at the real obvious culprit, the band that snubbed Detroit during the halftime show:

No matter how you're coping this morning, please know you're not alone. Let the memes flow, because we all know laughter is the greatest cure for a heartbreaking playoffs loss.
