The War on Thanksgiving...


Zod

Recommended Posts

what gets lost in this hijacking of holidays is the slick, covert opertaion of PETA. Their love of the turkey seems to go unnoticed to the casual viewer.

But not this guy. I see exactly what they are up to. Mesmerize us with Christmas songs a month too early, get us shopping and distracted from what Thanksgiving is all about.

I'm surprised they haven't tried to take Planes,Trains and Automobiles out of rotation just to mess with us.

I think all the holidays need a rescheduling!

Fathers day for example needs to move to October when all the major sports are being played...and it needs to be a full weekend celebration.

Move thanksgiving to August so that it's kind of like a repeat of July 4th/1st

Christmas can stay where it is

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!

I turned the corner in my neighborhood Thursday night and one of my neighbors has a tree already decorated outside with Christmas lights! It wasn't even Halloween and he already has Christmas lights up? I noticed on ebay today their site already has bows and is decorted in red!

Thanksgiving is a man's holiday! Stuffing yourself with food and football! It's what made America great! I will probably even watch the Lions game this year!

Actually Christmas didn't happen on Dec. 25th. The early Christans in order to get more "converts" moved it to December 25th

I've brined, spiced, injected, citrused, deep fried, you name it.

I think white turkey meat just doesn't have enough fat to be savory.

I'll go back to my corner now and behave.

At my house, there's always some fat, white savory meat for you.

[did I say that out loud]

    • To kick this up, The Athletic has a really comprehensive piece out where pretty much all QB questions are addressed. It is worth seeing.  https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7083539/2026/03/04/starting-quarterback-projections-free-agency-draft/?source=user_shared_article I’m putting something specific here but it should have a thread or something. It is an extensive exercise.  This is a dense write up with a lot of column inches used, about the Jets and Murray and Reich, all this stuff.. then it goes to backup QB and there is Dalton.  I am pasting that part: As for Dalton, Reich is installing the offense he was trying to run in Carolina in 2023 before he got fired, and Dalton was with the Panthers then; he’s an ideal option as a veteran backup to replace Taylor. Reich said this about Dalton in 2023: “The way he's throwing the football, the way he works through progressions, the way he handles the operation. … Since day one (when) he walked in the door, I'm like, 'This guy is starter-worthy.' You guys know I've said that all along. He's, in my opinion, one of the best 32 quarterbacks in the world.” ——— That’s true love lol. I never heard any of this. Pretty crazy I think, considering how the year went.   Anyway the dream is not dead. . 
    • The Seahawks traded for wide receiver/returner Rashid Shaheed at the trade deadline. He proved to be a key acquisition. Shaheed returned a punt and a kickoff for touchdowns in the regular season and had a 95-yard kickoff return in the postseason. Shaheed, though, is scheduled for free agency. So, the 12 games he played, including the postseason, might be the extent of his time in Seattle. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Shaheed and the Seahawks are not close to an extension, and the expectation is that the two-time Pro Bowler will hit free agency. Shaheed has 153 receptions for 2,243 yards and 12 touchdowns in his four-year career to go along with three punt return touchdowns and a kickoff return touchdown. He ranks 13th on PFT’s top-100 free agents. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/report-rashid-shaheed-appears-headed-to-free-agency
