What are your favorite Happy Thanksgiving Day Traditions?
By Mark Carman
Carm and Kayla celebrate Thanksgiving 2017 day football, the red hot Boston Celtics and Donald Trump versus Lavar Ball.
‘Tis the season to stuff your face with turkey, stuffing, pumpkin pie and whatever else can fit on your Thanksgiving day plate. It is also the day to play football in the morning then watch lots of football, nap and watch more football. Ahhhh. So good.
Interesting week in the NFL especially in Buffalo and Denver where John Elway called the Broncos soft and Sean McDermott inexplicably started Nathan Peterman. Taylor is back this week against Kansas City.
Kyrie Irving and the Boston Celtics continue to roll over the NBA. Irving has to be feeling on top of the world that his “decision” is working out so well. Perhaps he won’t feel the same come May when he matches up with LeBron James and company. Lets all hope that series happens. Long way to go, but right now the New York Knicks have a better record than the Oklahoma City Thunder. Wow. Carmelo Anthony can’t feel great about that one.
Oklahoma Sooner Baker Mayfield grabbed his crotch, then got emotional apologizing. Not the best choice by Mayfield taunting the Jayhawks and their fans, but quite entertaining. Mayfield seems to have learned the don’t-disrespect-your-opponent-while in college lesson. Different story in the NFL.
Thanksgiving is also the time for college football rivalry week. Auburn versus Alabama should be a great one as should Ohio State and Michigan.
College basketball will miss Michael Porter Jr. Best wishes for a speedy recovery to the uber talented Missouri freshman. Tiger fans are left wondering if Porter will come back for what would be his redshirt freshman or head straight to the NBA.
