Your Mid-Day Thanksgiving Day Open Thread

So. Much. Sports. As it should be. College basketball is starting to get feisty as you’ve got Villanova/Iowa State, Florida/Xavier and Nebraska/Oklahoma going on. And for those that love a parade there’s that as well. I think there was some footy earlier as well. A veritable cornucopia for one’s eyes is what this day is. I do hope that everyone is getting along in their respective houses but if there is drama, you’ve an obligation to spill.

To The Game!

Giants/Cowboys:

-This is going to be horrible isn’t it? Gah, let’s just go over the bloody details.

-Dallas is 72-46-2 vs the Giants all-time and have won 10 of the last 11.

-The Cowboys lead the league in sacks with 40 and Dimes is the 3rd-most sacked qb with 30. Both those totals will rise today.

-Since Dak has returned from injury the O has been just humming along to the tune of 35.25 points per game.

-He’s made his bones recently by picking on backup cb’s so he should have a field day today.

-You see, the Giants lost cb1 Adoree Jackson and some other starters so struggling rookie Cor’Dale Flott and Nick McCloud may get the pleasure of having burn marks up and down their backsides. The latter guy must be a recent callup from the practice squad because I’ve not come across his name before.

-The 0-line has its issues as well with up to 4 starters not being able to play today. Micah Parsons might go nuts.

-Hopefully the run game will be effective because the pass-catchers available are Cager, the dreadful Golladay, some dude poached from the Bills (Hodgkins), ball-dropper David Sills and sorta good Darius Slayton.

-It’s going to hurt.

Enjoy the festivities.

“That pumpkin pie’s gonna taste a little sweeter for Mike McCarthy this year”

Bold of you to assume Mike eats anything slowly enough to register its taste.
