Thankful for Football

Hope you all had some good turkey yesterday and sat down and slept in front of some good football games. The first was the Packers vs. the Lions. I still don't get why they play a game every thanksgiving in Detroit. It's not one one of the more popular teams and The Lions always seem to lose, like yesterday. The final score was 34-12. Aaron Rodgers actually could stay standing long enough to be effective as he threw for 348 yards and 3 TDs. Also a Good game from Donald Driver as he had 7 catches, 142 yards and One TD.

The Next game was also another Traditional Thanksgiving Game with the Raiders vs. the Cowboys. There is always a game in Dallas on Thanksgiving just like Detroit but the Cowboys are actually popular and they win; at least recently. Today wasn't any different as they beat the Raiders 24-7. Tony Romo threw for 309 Yards and 2 TDs while Miles Austin had 7 catches, 145 Yards and one TD. The Cowboys had control of this game throughout and made a lot of Cowboy fans happy while they ate turkey.

The last game of the day was the Giants vs. Broncos. While not really traditional, it was a good game. The Broncos defense finally came back to life after nearly a month of struggles. They allowed no TDs and only two field goals. Kyle Orton meanwhile did alright throwing 245 yards, one TD and one INT. The Broncos offense did enough to win 26-6. They finally snapped their 4 game losing streak. Meanwhile the Giants looked bad and they lose again after snapping their four game losing streak last week.

P.S. This is my 100th posting. I'm thankful for sticking with this blog as it has been a pleasure writing about sports. I'm also thankful that Timmy won the Cy Young again, the Gators won the BCS Title and that the Penguins won the Stanley Cup. Also this pie is really good.
