Thanksgiving Football

Don't forget to tune in and root for your favorite football team while you're chowing down on some pumpkin pie:


Chicago Bears vs. Detroit Lions - 12:30 PM on CBS


Philadelphia Eagles vs. Dallas Cowboys - 4:30 PM on Fox


Seattle Seahawks vs. San Francisco 49ers 8:30 PM on NBC

And if you're up early making your turkey dinners, turn on the parades!

Thanskgiving Movies

This upcoming Thanksgiving you'll probably see mostly Christmas movies on the TV already, but there are some good movies out there about Thanksgiving time!

John R. Kennedy over at Global News writes:

To get into the spirit of the holiday, we’ve cooked up a list of 10 movies and TV specials set during Thanksgiving. They’re not all great movies (you mean some are turkeys? – ed.) but they’re bound to resonate with anyone spending time with relatives and pumpkin pies.

Our favorites: Free Birds, and of course Charlie Brown's Thanskgiving.

@TheDailyPardon is saving Thanksgiving turkeys!

Would you pardon a thanksgiving turkey like @LordSteele did??

The Freebirds Movie crew tweets a turkey to be pardoned every day!

They tweet to a "president" of some kind, like @MattyBraps, @brookeburke and plenty of others.

That's some turkey respect!!

It's a Mythbusters Thanskgiving

Thanksgiving Song

Nicole Westbrook has a song called "It's Thanksgiving".
Awesome!

The Grinch

When December starts, there is no shortage of animated and hallmark holiday films to fill up your DVR.

With that said, there is no reason that TBS should be showing "Dr. Seuss' How the Grinch Stole Christmas" this year on November 5th!

Maybe they need to go back and watch the movie again, to learn that Christmas isn't about bloated consumerism.
