If you had the relatives that I have come to your house on Thanksgiving, you wouldn't take them to a sports bar for the game.

At least you wouldn't if you wanted to go back to that sports bar in the future - ha ha.

"the Washington Redskins vs. the Dallas Cowboys on Thanksgiving," Ouch.

Ouch is right! But I can live without the Lions' game.

If football fans were given the choice between Texas A&M vs Texas on network TV at the same time that the Dallas Cowboys are on pay per view, which game do you think would have higher ratings?

Are you from Texas? Congrats to the Longhorns, not just for a great game, but also for rehabilitating the best college team logo.

It's kinda a circular backslapping event. The "news" tell
you how great the sport is, they get you interested, you
watch it on their channel, and their ratings go up..so the
media charge more to their advertisers.
Basically, the media is using your inquisitive viewing habits
to make more money for themselves.
It is better to go out an do a sport, rather than watch it,
better for your heart, attitude, and weight!

That's hilarious.

I have the superfan add on so I can watch games in hd.

Good luck to your boys this weekend. I had the unfortunate experience of watching them destroy the Browns in Cleveland and I'll probably be rooting for them. What's with all the Pittsburgher whining about Cowher? The man is solid.
