The War on Thanksgiving...

And so it begins my friend. The War on Thanksgiving is in full effect. Store fronts are now littered with Santa Clause and Christmas decor. Once again, Thanksgiving is an afterthought.

Thanksgiving is the only man based holiday. No shopping, no singing, no romantic sickening notions that make me want to vomit. Just the biggest dinner of the year, plenty of desserts, and an afternoon of watching football from the couch.

Men of the huddle, I submit to you that it is our destiny to take back Thanksgiving and hump it into the prominence it once endured. Now is our time!

Thanksgiving has always been my favorite holiday. Not because of family. I'm in the woods for the whole week and at night celebrating with friends guy week. No women allowed in camp. Back to nature giving thanks of how easy we have it the rest of the year.

Our Family's Tradition? It's kinda corny, but we sing along to Arlo Guthrie's Alice's Restaurant played on one of the kids old boom boxes when we break out the nanner puddin and punkin pie for desert. It's the only Thanksgiving music I know.

First recommendation to take Thanksgiving back - I literally refuse to listen to X-mas music until December. If I heard it before then I used to stick my fingers in my ears and go "lalalalala". I say we adopt a policy of humming a few bars of Arlo's song instead whenever and wherever X-mas music in played inappropriately prior to Thanksgiving.

Absolutely. I love Christmas music in small doses. 3 weeks a year is about all I can take. If I hear someone playing it between now and december I will punch them in the kidneys.

Is that what it's called now?

Im gonna need to go ahead and request off work. Effin love Thanksgiving.

Although, I do looove Christmas, but the past couple years we have had like 30 of my family members all fly to Charlotte for Thanksgiving and it always ends up being shitfest 200(insert year here). Pretty excited about it. Drink lots, get high, eat too much, smoke again, drink even more, beer pong, bar or stay at my aunts house and get hammered. Wake up, eat breakfast, repeat.

The only money you gotta spend for Thanksgiving is on awesome food instead of crap you gotta buy for people that they don't appreciate. I'm organizing a donation to charity this year...any person that was going to buy me something can take that money and either donate it straight to a charity or give it to me and I'll do it. I hate the materialist Christmas we celebrate. It's a joke. Got a friend who lived in South Africa for awhile and she's working with a children's charity there. Prob just donate the money to that. Any and all are welcome to participate in giving me my "Christmas" present.

Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday by far (4th of July close second). Both are centered around family, food, drinking, and either football or blowing stuff up. God bless America.

      Packers game predictions

      Although, I will admit there is a big caveat to this game. Packers coming off an emotionally big game against Rodgers on the road in Primetime and a MNF matchup with the Eagles the following week, it is a prime opportunity for a let down game with them looking ahead. Which if it's the case, I think we still lose, but only something like 24-21.

      We lose in a non competitive game 38-20. Bryce doesn't look much better than Dalton did and all the people this week saying "see we told you he's great, look how bad this team is without Bryce" blame it on the OL injuries and/or his ankle and already start laying the groundwork for that being why he is still one of the worst starting QB's the rest of the season and why he deserves another year, if not even an outright extension. And no, that's not what I'm rooting for, just what I objectively think will happen, just as I've been saying for a month would happen once we got past the cupcake portion of the schedule.

      Miami will be their first real test. Even a close loss and I would be content with that at this point. Brandon Miller is probably gonna be out a few weeks with a partial shoulder dislocation. With that being said, the rookies are really impressing me.
