3 NFL Thanksgiving Games

Bears at Lions
The roaring Lions are playing great so I expect they’ll win even though the rebuilding Bears can realistically keep it close.

Giants at Cowboys
The Cowboys can finally win a home game this season because they are playing a terrible Giants team that has multiple flaws even though they do have talented players that are prospering.

Dolphins at Packers
The Packers are a better team according to the results on the field since they do have a winning record which can’t be said currently for the South Beach Dolphins, Love playing slightly better than double T is achievable, and the Packers playing at home which is a strong advantage are the reasons why I pick the Packers to win.

I’m picking all home teams to win on Thanksgiving, and it wouldn’t surprise me if I succeeded with 3-0.

firestorm, I would’ve given you a like, but you picked the Packers!

Yeah there are some exceptions to the rule but the vast majority of athletes aren’t going to put in the same type of work in the offseason whenever their contract is fully guaranteed. I am of the mindset that all sports contracts should have a minimum base salary across the board with a lot of incentives baked in. If you are seriously injured then there can be some adjustments made but it still wouldn’t be a fully guaranteed payment. It is just human instinct to not try as hard if you already know you are getting the reward regardless of your production. It’s sad to see, you watch old highlights of the great players and every single one of them busted their butts. Maybe they took plays off, maybe they didn’t. I don’t know because social media wasn’t around back then. Take Lebron James for instance, he is supposed to be the leader but there are 10 minute videos on YouTube of him making boneheaded, nonchalant plays that would drive any coach up the walls. It’s maddening sometimes to watch these supremely talented individuals make elementary decisions.

My roommates, my dad and a couple of my dad's friends were talking about this and all of us agree guaranteed money isn't helping fans see athletes do their best and that your idea about a lot of incentives baked into season would be THE way to go.

I/we will be quite busy today and already have been. We've been awake for quite a while, but we went to my parents house first thing in the morning because of Thanksgiving. This is the first year that I can remember that my parents are attempting Thanksgiving breakfast, lunch and dinner for those that are interested. Me and my roommates are tasked with making sure feel welcome and are having fun and we're to give special attention to some kids that would prefer to have stayed home because they're uncomfortable around strangers.

This tab will be up for most of the day on a TV next to the NFL games today and I've mentioned to one of my former neighbors to keep it on the latest page, but he can scroll backwards. I will probably post throughout the day, but it will be either me typing or Jase typing what I request.

Have a nice day and enjoy the games.

Go Goff and Go Lions.!
