| The first Thanksgiving football game |
The above image is swiped from a Dave Barry column. While it looks accurate to me, there is one detail I have a quibble with; why, unlike all the other Pilgrims, is the Pilgrim carrying the ball barefooted? Was he Plymouth colony's vagrant? Was he going native and soon to be living in a teepee in the woods? Was he America's first proto-hippie? Why? Why? Why? The questions abound, but there are no answers.
Anyway, enjoy your turkey and the football games (unless you're a Lions fan) and have a Happy Thanksgiving.
