A couple in the middle of a messy divorce case find themselves in court battling over custody of little Johnny, their only child. In order to make a fair decision over the boy's future, the judge takes Johnny into his private chambers so that he can find out which of the parents the boy would prefer to live with.

"Well, Johnny" says the judge, "would you like to live with your mother?"

"No" replied Johnny, "she hits me all the time"

"Well then," the judge continues, "would you like to live with your father?"

"No" replied Johnny again, "he hits me all the time too!"

The judge looks exasperated and says to the boy: "well, Johnny, who would you like to live with?"

"I'd like to live with the Detroit Lions," the boy replied quickly.

"Why on earth would you want to live with the Detroit Lions?" replied the now extremely puzzled judge.

"Well," replied Johnny, "they never beat anyone."
