Thanks

Happy Thanksgiving everybody. This year I am most thankful for not having to fly anywhere for Thanksgiving, as my parents drove up here from North Carolina to spend the holiday in Columbus. I am also thankful for:

-podcasts
-Randy Moss
-being able to play Civilization IV online against some of my friends from college
-electric blankets
-the continuing descent into embarassment of the New York Yankees franchise
-the few moments of free time that Eileen has amidst her hours and hours of schoolwork
-the third football game added to the Thanksgiving schedule so that I can watch football for 11 hours straight even if the games are mismatches

May next year bring:
-some semblence of online play for the Wii so that I can beat Bob and David at Smash Brothers
-19-0
-Eileen's classes spontaneously being cancelled
-A miracle that enables me to surpass Lucas in the NFL picks

GB at DET: Remember when the Lions were 6-2 and a lock to make the playoffs? Neither does Jon Kitna, who thanks to one-dimensional play calling gets teed off on by opposing defensive linemen. Over/Under on passes thrown in this game: 80. GB

NYJ at DAL: The Jets threw the kitchen sink at Pittsburgh and still needed overtime to win. Not a good sign when you're going on the road on a short week against a team with one loss. DAL

IND at ATL: When is a road game not a road game? When you're a dome team going on the road to play in a dome against a team with no fan base. It's funny how much Peyton Manning struggles without his all-world receivers. Kind of like how Tom Brady struggled with Reche Caldwell, Jabar Gaffney, and Doug Gabriel last year. Oh wait, he didn't struggle at all and the team was within one play of going to the Super Bowl. IND
