Post by: metsrock69 on November 12, 2014, 05:25:41 pm
do you watch football on Thanksgiving? do you watch it on television or go to a local football high school game? or do you even live close to an nfl stadium to go to a pro game

Gotta support my Lions.  When I was growing up I was never really into football and then just one day I started watching it and am sorta hooked.  It's funny during Thanksgiving though cause we'll be hanging out with family and watching football and I'll just rattle off something and the guys in my family sorta pause before responding.  It's so fun.

No, I don't watch it, but my husband, son in law, and every male at our house for Thanksgiving is in the family room glued to the TV.

I always watch the Cowboys play on Turkey Day. It is a tradition in our family. Family members went to games at Texas Staduim, but that is all in the past now. We just watch the game at Mothers's. And stuff our guts!

Since the Lions are in the same division as my Vikes, I usually watch at least that game to see how the standings stack up.

I will be watching Texas A&M Aggies play LSU Tigers on television Thanksgiving evening.  However, I really miss the rivalry between the Aggies and Texas Longhorns when they used to play on Thanksgiving.

I usually watch whatever game my husband is excited about. We usually have to go to grandma's house to catch the game, however, we have upgraded our cable-so there's no telling what we will be watching.

It depends on whose house we are visiting. If we are at my uncle's house, the TV and the game  is on.
We have another neighbor we visit for holidays that doesn't care for the game. He doesn't want the distraction when he's cooking the Thanksgiving meal with his wife.

I don't normally watch it, but if someone who loves it is watching and will 'splain things I don't understand, I can dig it.  ???  You know, like how many innings are there left. Calm down.  :o I'm kidding, okay.

I do like seeing good plays. It's pretty exciting.  :star:

If a game is on. I don't mind football, but I don't seek out to watch it.

Yes, I do watch football on Thanksgiving and it would not be Thanksgiving without it and I do live near an NFL stadium, but who wants to go to a game when it's family time and so much to be Thankful for. :heart:

My brother's in our local high school marching band and plays at the local game on Thanksgiving. And I was in the band before him. This year marks the tenth and last year that my family will "have" to go to the game. Only one more year of being unable to watch the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade live. Assuming the game doesn't get snowed out. They're talking 8-10 inches of snow for Wednesday.

I probably will end up watching the bears after we eat since the game starts early and we eat at noon. I have no interested in sitting in a cold stadium to watch a game when I can stay inside  where it is warm

When I was younger we would always go to the local high school football game which started at 10am. For the most part most of those games have been moved because they fall within the playoffs. It was a great tradition. Now we sit home and watch the NFL.

I used to do that. For some reasons I stop. I guess because I am very busy taking care of two children.

I don't care for football but my husband and his friends do, so we watched 3 football games yesterday.  I was sure ready for something else by the end of the day!
