The War on Thanksgiving...


Zod

Recommended Posts

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.

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.

    • 6 pages of tuka and Seltzer arguing is actually 97 pages long
    • 100%. And these same people will claim you have an agenda. You can't have it every way. We had the lowest rated defense in the league last year. Statistically the worst ever. By PFF grades (for whatever that's worth- but they are readily accepted, used, and conveyed by most "reputable" sources), the defense was the worst ever. Not only that, PFF rated our receiving corp the worst in football last season. The absolute worst... out of 32 teams. Which is why regardless of the lip service Canales and Morgan paid to the current guys, they knew it would be criminal not to give Bryce more help. People fixating on team stats and not taking these things into context are stupid, plain and simple, and I'm for one thankful they're not running this team (or probably anything for that matter bc they obviously can't discern reality. Again, going back to the eyeball test these Narrative Nancies seem to hate so much, did they not see the windows Bryce was putting balls into? Have the generally not watched much NFL? Please, please show me the film where all these NFL QBs are making throws like this to this point Bryce was "below average" down the stretch compared to them. Bryce made more wow throws in that 3 game stretch of the Bucs, Chiefs, and Eagles than every other QB combined in all the years since since Cam got hurt I genuinely am baffled by people that can watch throws like that and act like it's nothing. I guarantee you Steve Spagnola, Todd Bowles, and and Vic Fangio didn't think it was nothing after watching the little guy torch them with players those teams would be embarrassed to trot out at the skill position players. The national media spent all year making excuses for Mahomes not having elite weapons when he had multiple 1st & 2nd round talents at the skill positions along with future HoFers in Kelce and Hopkins. Bryce wasn't throwing for 300 yards every week with David Moore and Adam Theilen in spite of jaw dropping throws and you want to say the guy played below average. For those people, again, we ain't watching the same sport. And the name calling doesn't change that... The vitriol and projection... it's off the effing charts with these people.  
    • "Well you see if you remove this terrible game that terrible game this other terrible game and then focus on these games you'll see he's actually one of the better QB's in the league and he's actually as good as Jayden Daniels". My god this place is delusional. I love it.
