King Hippo - November 27, 2015November 26, 2015

Oh glory of glories, to bear witness to a full Thursday of turkey day footy. SO MUCH NFC EAST to digest. No wonder we can't poop, and they go around blaming that poor, sweet, innocent 6-foot opioid... The Iggles MUST be trying to get Chip Kelly fired, right?

As I sit here at my Canada-centric desk, high in my ivory tower looking over the sweaty masses I wonder to myself, "Stomach flu?", Allergic reaction?", "Suppurating chest wound?", maybe...."Penis cancer?". What should be my go-to get-outta-here excuse? Or should I just be honest and take the inevitable harassment I'll

Week 11 is over. Teams have won and lost. Whistles were blown and so were some calls. Remember those who fight the Tao ate only fighting themselves. As the days close into Thanksgiving remember we have still a lot to learn from a man so in touch with the Tao
