Thoughts on Thanksgiving, Football, and what not…

• The Lions are ALOT worst than I ever imagined. Thankfully, they are not featured on national television more than once a year, so I wasn't subjected to witness the horror that is Detroit Lions football. It's frightening. It did not even look as if the Titans were facing an NFL franchise. My guess that entire Lion team is exhausted from trying to fit Daunte Culpepper into his uniform, that they have no energy to play come kickoff. He is a doughy individual. But he is the least of the Lions worries. The only player they can build around is Calvin Johnson. Luckily, they have two first round picks in next years draft and three picks in the first thirty-three. But factoring in the Lions recent draft history, they'll draft three wide-outs.
• Tony Romo is the most annoying athlete in sports. He doesn't look like an athlete. He's really nice. He's dating a beautiful woman (well). And his team NEEDS him. Seriously. The Cowboys are STACKED with ridiculous talent, top to bottom. Marion Barber. Roy Williams. Terrell Owens. Jason Witten. But none of them perform as one without Romo. He's an on-field arbitrator. He makes that team click. Even the defense for some reason. I said that Drew Brees was the MVP yesterday, but if they were to give the award on sheer objective valuability, Romo would win. I want to be Tony Romo.
• Cranberry sauce is delicious. It really is. It makes everything on your plate that much better. It makes the mashed potatoes better. The turkey better. The stuffing better. It's fantastic. I don't understand why I don't eat it more. It's seems I only eat it once a year, even though I eat turkey dozens of times a year. I always thought something was missing, it was the sauce. I should utilize it more often.
• Running is awful. At 8:30 this morning, before the stuffing of the face, I partook in a five mile run to benefit something. I'm assuming it was something important. Anyway, running is a terrible activity. Especially uphill. And especially when you have little kids and guys in their seventies passing you left and right. I'm not a runner.
