NFL QBs as Thanksgiving dishes:
🦃 Sam Darnold = turkey
A lot of people claim to hate turkey. They say it’s dry. Bland. Well I say that’s a coaching/cooking issue!
It ain’t the 1.01 of meats, but in the right hands it gets the job done.
Trade it from the stove to the smoker and see what happens.

On this date in 1977, a plane crash took the lives of several members of Lynyrd Skynyrd. To commemorate that event, today the first 100 guests get a free bird.

Whatever you do don’t tell people about this app called ICEBlock because then people will know where ICE is at.
Pam Bondi is really angry about ICEBlock: "Shame on CNN for promoting that app."
So whatever you do, DON'T USE THE APP, because it will make her mad.

Seen enough of Howard Lutnick, thank you! No more of that guy is needed at this time. If I need some more I will simply go to Oyster Bay, find the most expensive restaurant, and look for the person who is being the most obnoxious to the servers. Do not need additional exposure at this time.
