Happy Thanksgiving! Let's all be thankful for Jake Arrieta.
Does your family have a Thanksgiving tradition that's different than most? My family in western Maryland, in addition to turkey and other traditional Thanksgiving eats, also makes Hog Maw. It'll no doubt seem weird to some of you, but trust me, it is delicious.
I hope everyone has a lovely holiday.
As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them. -JFK

Since my grandma is a snow bird, me and my cousins would get our Hanukkah present on Thanksgiving.
So that’s our tradition.

The “Thanksgiving Argument” is a tradition whenever our family gets together.
Mrs. zk and i are hosting an orphans’ TG this year. Our only traditions are that she always makes a killer apple pie and I always make upside-down pumpkin cheesecake with a graham pecan crust.
In what I hope will become a new tradition, I made jalapeño bacon cornbread for the first time. We’ll see.

Made exactly as described, except I serve it upside-down.
Pretty easy to make if you want to try it, and ridiculously delicious. It freezes well, so we wind up eating cheesecake into December sometimes.

Do the pick 'em pool picks lock for all three games or just one game at a time?
I don’t have much tolerance for stupid. Or cheese on food that doesn’t need it. -duck
or maybe not, since it's showing everyone's picks for the detroit-new england game but nothing else
I always thought it was all games for the day lock 1 hour before the first game of the day
that's what the system tells me.
each day’s games are due an hour before first game. weird that it’s only showing the first one.

Happy Thanksgiving, Birdland.
Mine may be awkward as hell because my family has collectively decided to go crazy in the last week. We’re usually a rather boring lot so this is peculiar. Though with the way things are going I’m expecting to find my normally straight-laced cousins with dyed hair and piercings everywhere, because that is about the only thing that could shock me more.

I had the same roommate for four years up until just over a year ago, and apparently that’s when the gay rumors started. This side of the family couldn’t fathom the idea of two girls living together in the big city as being anything other than lesbians.
Once my grandfather said to me, “Where’s your friend?” And I was like, “Who?” “Your friend. Your roommate. If you ever want to bring her to any family events, it’s fine with me.” It was actually kind of sweet in a way.

Unrelated to relatives suspecting you are gay, my grandmother is for some reason unable to bring herself to say “girlfriend” or “boyfriend” to any of us. All she says is “friend” and it’s always confusing. I think it’s her way of saying she hasn’t liked any of the assorted SOs of her grandchildren that she has met over the years.

a friend of ours did that to Mrs. zk at her 15th HS reunion
He arrived beforehand, and went around telling everyone, “J___ is pregnant, but she doesn’t want anyone to know. So don’t bring it up with her.” She wasn’t pregnant, of course.
So all night long, people were coming up to her and hugging her saying “Congratulations!” And she’d say, “what for?”, and they’d say, “It’s okay, David told me. I won’t tell anyone. Mum’s the word!” and wink at her.
It took her half the night to figure out what the hell was going on.

I am the oldest cousin on both sides and I have never heard this. Although maybe it doesn’t kick in til you’re 30 or something. One time my aunt said to me, “Don’t worry, your time will come,” but that was just regarding marriage. Nobody ever has made comments about kids.

My extended family thinks I do this already.
My last long-term GF lived in Ohio and though we were together for a while, it wasn’t long enough that we had an “alternate holidays” schedule – so I was here on Thanksgiving and she was there, and then I had my grandmother asking about “your friend” and only met her once.
Said ex-GF didn’t like my family because we weren’t dysfunctional enough. I think she was intimidated by a family where nobody had gotten divorced and everyone got along with their in-laws.

Dinner on the Shore...
Homemade dumplings FTW!
Hey look, mister - we serve hard drinks in here for men who want to get drunk fast, and we don't need any characters around to give the joint "atmosphere".
Looks awesome, duck!
Enjoy!

I hate that centsports takes all day to process bets
Even a 1230 game doesn’t get processed in time for the 415 game.

wow. NOBODY picked Dallas. At home on Thanksgiving.
I thought I would be an outlier.

Really?
The way Dallas has played all year?

after the coaching change,
they had two straight games that they won by 13 or more against NY (a decent team) and Detroit (a not very good team). And the Saints have had an up-and-down year.
Don’t get me wrong, the Saints were favored for good reason, but I figured a number of people would drink the flavor aid and go for the “Dallas has momentum” thing. And as it turns out, they’d have been right if Dallas hadn’t blown the game.

Everything is quiet
Doubled up w/ hosting Thanksgiving dinner and a birthday party for my niece. Chaos, Inc. Everyone’s gone now. Kiddies are napping. O’s aren’t losing but unfortunately, the Bengals soon will be. Alas, all’s well.
Happy Thanksgiving from the Big Onion, where we had turkey in sour cream sauce, Italian veggies, jello w/ fruit chunks floating in it...
plus Nina’s first attempt at punkin pie — which actually worked out pretty well (though the whipped cream surely helped).
And somehow it’s always kinda special to have a real homey holiday when for the 10 million people around you it’s just Thursday.

went over very well tonight. :)

I almost bet on the Saints
but then decided that Jets > Bungles was a safer bet with the way the Boys have been playing since Phillips got canned.

Eh....always a risk on the off chance that you lose
Usually isn’t worth the risk.

I bet
Fedor Emelienenko when he was -1800 under dr’s theory…
and he lost.

Though I did make a buck and a half on the Pats
after betting $5 on them to win.
"things like locig and prrofreading are actually valued here" - zknower
I did too
Although Detroit had me on edge for a while. I don’t usually bet on teams over like -250 because the risk isn’t worth it.

I didn't get any boyfriend questions either, when this year I could also say yes
It’s like they know to only ask that question when they can give you a pitying look afterward.

I got that question three times and I’m single…..all the stupid responses you get when you actually admit your still single.

Hog Maw
Hey; that’s great. I’m from York County and we do Hog Maw too. I suspect that it’s not considered too weird by people up here.
