It doesn't matter, it is still a holiday based on family and coming together. Hell, if football is more important than that you need to fix some problems in your family.

not everyone likes their family or getting together for the sake of keeping up appearances or keeping grandma happy just because it's "for the holidays".

I might have issues, but I can sit down and talk to my family without football on the TV to distract me. I really can't understand people liking a sport so damn much.

Contemporary Thanksgiving is a stupid late 19th Century construct that mostly celebrates something that kinda sucked: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/richard-g ... 88436.html

Whatever. Go back to worshiping football.

Because apparently liking sports is just different from any other interest or hobby.

I only worship track & field. Football is more like a demigod.

Too bad turbo controllers totally break that game.

More like the game is broken without a turbo controller.

I find sports different from other hobbies because I see so much more emphasis put on it, and so many people will blatantly deny family gatherings or avoid other important things for football. I don't understand it.
