It means that for the majority of the last decade the Detroit Lions have been one of the most terrible franchises in all of football. Barring the last few years, the same can be said about the Tigers as well. It just means that they should both leave town and be rotten somewhere else.

Its a play on words. When someone uses a phrase such as "Go Lions", it typically has a positive connotation in that you are cheering your team on. In this sense, however, it is used in a derogatory way by stating that the Lions are not a good team and the fans would just as soon have them leave town and take the other sub-par franchise, the Tigers, with them.

LOL, I'm from Michigan, it's because up until last year everyone kind of hated the Detroit Tigers MLB team because, well because they consistently sucked. The Detroit Lions have sucked for a long time too although they always have a huge fan base, kind of a under-dog thing
So it's just a funny cheer dissing both teams
