    Happy Thanksgiving y’all. Here’s a little video funny in the spirit: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4FXSnoy71Q4

    I think the fact that Detroit scored first on Green Bay is a sign that the apocalypse is on the horizon. Maybe those Mayans did have some sort of insight.

    Detroit? Green Bay? Does it make me un-American because I am watching the Creighton/Michigan game?

    No, it would make you un-American if you were screaming “Death to Infidels” and shooting up a post office or shopping mall or something. Although Creighton/Michigan will probably raise a few flags over at Homeland Security. Can I see your passport?

    Yeah, a smiley face, it’s clear you don’t understand english. I’ll be sending the authorities over your way. Although I don’t know why I’m explaining it to you, if you don’t get it. I SAID I DON’T KNOW WHY I’M EXPLAINING IT TO YOU, AHHHH, NEVERMIND.

    Don’t know why I am laughing so hard at the previous comment. I must be really tired.

    Amongst everything else I am thankful for – at this point I am thankful I DO NOT have the NFL network. 26-6 would have been painful.

    Well, at least Detroit had the decency to graciously let Green Bay get the win. I knew that Mayan calendar was a hoax or whatever.

    I am all for tradition, but can we do something about the quality of games on Thanksgiving day? Neither of the games during the day were entertaining and I ended up switching over to a Band of Brothers marathon.

    Great observation during Band of Brothers by one of family members, ” If these guys are supposed to be freezing – why don’t I see their breath?” Good point -at least make it look like it is freezing. The fake snow just isn’t enough. Suspension of disbelief was shown the door.

    But back to the NFL.. When the highlight of all 3 games may have been the F Bomb that the NFL Network “missed”. I haven’t heard it, how can it be as bad as NBC showing Devin Hester’s bare ##$ not once – but TWICE last Sunday? Did Collinsworth know what was going to happen when he asked for the replay? ” Boy, Cutler really shows his arm strength there on this slant. And Hester with a great… whooa – Devin Hester has just mooned America.”

    Tiger Woods is in a hospital after suffering a one-car accident last night. Here is hoping that Tiger is okay and he is not seriously hurt.

    Does anyone want to bet that Tim Finchem, PGA commissioner is in a church right now saying a few prayers?
