Aside from trying to make up for not feeding the homeless for the first ten months of the year, Thanksgiving is also a time when Americans reflect on what they are thankful for.
These things can vary, from friends to family or just good credit, but what would the holiday be without sports?
So here is a list of what Sports fans have to be thankful for this year….
THE DETROIT LIONS
They make us all feel better about our performance in the annual Turkey Bowl.
JUST FOR MEN HAIR DYE-
Because without it no one would have any reason to fear the beard or know who Brian Wilson
THE TEXT MESSAGE FEATURE
Let’s face it, thanks to text messaging Elin Nordegren and Eva Longoria are single and now Jenn Sterger is relevant again…or at least her pictures are….OMG..LOL
NBA FREE AGENCY
Because now the possibility exists that when you change jobs or companies you can have your own primetime special to decide what to do…
That’s the furthest place Lebron could have taken his talents from me…aside from Toronto
VINCE YOUNG
He proves there are worse things than being in your 20’s and having a baby face….by behaving like a baby..
ALEX RODRIGUEZ
Because the Yankees need AT LEAST one overpaid steroid user..
TERREL OWENS , CHAD OCHOCINCO ,THE MINNESOTA VIKINGS & DALLAS
They make any dysfunctional family look like the Brady Bunch..
TIM TEBOW
The Friar makes you feel better about your bad hair day..... http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/blog/shutdown_corner/post/Photo-Tebow-gets-Friar-Tuck-haircut-courtesy-Br?urn=nfl-260942
BCS
Because it means college football never really ends….because if it did that would be ridiculous…I mean who uses a playoff system and has an undisputed champion at the end of the season?
BO PELINI
Shows that Mel Gibson may not be THAT crazy, and now I can watch, “What Women Want” again on TV..
FOOTBALL HELMETS
Okay, so not everyone in the NFL knows how to use them without getting fined, but it’s an excuse not to have to look at Tom Brady’s hair or butt chin.
MICHAEL VICK
If he can get a second chance…we all can, (This is what O.J. Simpson is hanging on to right now)
DAVID ECKSTEIN
If he can call himself an athlete, then so can you…
The only time your significant other can ask you, how they look, where you CAN answer, “bad”.
BRAD CHILDRESS
Proves there is no such thing as a good 10th grade biology teacher…
FANTASY FOOTBALL
Kidding…why would anyone be thankful for that?
Living proof that anyone can be a sportscaster…
HAPPY THANKSGIVING..TURKEYS
