It’s Thanksgiving Time
In honor of Thanksgiving, I’d just like to relive one of my [least] favorite NFL memories—Phil Luckett and Jerome Bettis botching the overtime coin toss in the 1998 Steelers-Lions Thanksgiving game. To this day that coin toss is a reminder that no matter how simple something might be, the NFL will still find a way to screw it up. I’ll never forget the look on Bettis’ face as he pleaded with Luckett to change the call. A miscommunication hadn’t gone that badly for Bettis since the time he ordered three Double Whoppers at a Burger King and was accidentally given three Whopper Jrs. It was rough.
On another note, if you’re too lazy or apathetic to get off your ass and help the less fortunate this week (because apparently that’s what people do during holidays) Campbell’s Soup is here to help you out. By taking part in the company’s “Click For Cans” promotion you can help donate cans to the needy and entertain yourself with a mind numbing flash game at the same time. It’s a win-win situation.
Finally, check out my NFL picks for this week.
Happy Thanksgiving.
