First off on this thanksgiving eve I would like to tell you all how thankful I am for you, the reader of this blog, it means so much that you checked out the site or hit that twitter link. I hope you all have a wonderful thanksgiving. With that out of the way here is your guide to what will happen tomorrow as you enjoy your meal and family.
11 am Vikings 27 Lions 21: You’ve gotten tired of the today show crew covering the thanksgiving day parade, good news you’ve got Vikings Lions. A key divisional match up, winner goes top , I think this is a toss up, like the decision to eat your weird suddenly vegetarian aunts kale thing, it would be rude not to try it but you would rather keep your palet safe. Just as I will not disrespect the surging Vikings and have a little bit of faith, I wouldn’t be surprised if like your aunts kale salad, this is a pick I regret though.
2:25 pm: your guests have arrived and a lengthy discussion of politics, which suddenly for some reason there very willing to debate about. Make a tactical move and go watch football, Washington Dallas is the most exciting game of the day. It’s time the Cowboys hit a road bump right? No that’s what we always say they beat the unfortunately named Washington team 35 28. Why did the schedule makers put Washington in a Thanksgiving Day game I thought the point of the Holliday was to sweep what we did to the Native Americans under the rug. At least you can appease both your crazy half-drunk conservative uncle and your liberal arts loving aunt at the same time by cheering for the Cowboys, oh what a world we live in.
6:30 pm: Pittsburgh 35 Indianapolis 10: while the first serving of thanksgiving goodness is heavenly and the second one gives you a sensation not unlike heaven, you make the mistake of going back for thirds. This game is a good example of an age old lesson don’t over eat on turkey day of the results will be a night spent with indigestion. Steer clear of this game, unless you want an excuse to be that guy who takes a lengthy nap on the couch. That’s all happy thanksgiving everyone, and as Jeff Fisher would say, ignore your diet is 7-9 bs.
Don’t over eat
