Listen, man. It’s Thanksgiving. Y’all know how these things go. It’s time to sit around the living room with your family and watch the Lions play, uh, football? I guess? Is that what they do these days?
Look, the Lions aren’t good. And neither are the Bears. So there’s not too much to look forward to for this Thursday afternoon game.
But Troy Aikman is doing his absolute best in the booth to make things a bit more interesting. He added the perfect sound effect for this booming 70-yard punt from the Lions.
The ball floated in the air and bounced off a player’s helmet. Initially, it was unclear which player it hit. But on the replay, it’s clear it hits the Lions’ Bobby Price on the helmet.
There’s not much interesting about the play. But Aikman’s “doink” on the punt makes it SO much better. I mean, it’s perfect.

DOINK. That’s the best. Just give every punt sound effects from now on. It’ll be so much better.
It’d probably do some wonders for this game, too.
