... at Dallas' Restaurant.
Howdy and Happy Thanksgiving from Big D, where I was surprised to learn that that two-day-long song by Arlo Guthrie is a holiday tradition also ... and not just for the pinko peaceniks. It's one of my favorite parts of Thanksgiving. Other than family and stuff.
I was also surprised to learn that Texas Stadium is a bit of a dump. Gi@&%$ Stadium has a much better look from the outside, believe it or not. It's pretty clear they're not going to spend any big bucks to spruce it up in the coming years with a new billion-dollar jewel on the horizon. There's even a big hole in the roof that they're apparently just going to ignore.
They do serve a mean pecan pie, though.
What, you want some football news? Well, OK. Laveranues Coles is out. Eric Smith is available. Other inactives for the Jets are Tuiasosopo (3rd QB), Darian Barnes (so there are no active FBs for the second straight week), Jacob Bender and Adrian Jones (look for the Adrien Clarke-Will Montgomery rotation to spin again), Sean Ryan, Marques Murrell and Eric Hicks.
There are a few Jets fans here for the game. Oddly enough, there seem to be a lot of Steelers fans waving Terrible Towels. Maybe they've been converted. No, it's mostly Cowboys fans with a few sprinkles of green.
I haven't seen Thomas and Julius Jones take the field yet, but I see their parents and family in their section behind the end zone. And just a few minutes ago punters Ben Graham and Mat McBriar were chatting at midfield. Since they're both from Australia, they're probably wondering what the heck they're doing playing on what for them is just a regular Thursday afternoon.
Jets are wearing green tops and white pants. Cowboys are in brown pants with yellow tops. Must be some kind of strange throwback game. Or a laundry mishap. Just kidding. They're wearing Cowboys uniforms, white jerseys, blueish-silver pants, and helmets with a blue satanic pentagram on the side.
And thanks to everyone who came forward with what they are thankful for in the previous post.

Please get rid of Mangidiot already!!!
Same Old Jets.
Embarrassed 34-3 with 4:00 left in the 4th quarter.
On national television, too.
But oh boy, they get to play the Fish next week In Miami.
Can't wait until the next Jersey Jets home game in 2 weeks ... with snipers at Gate D looking for flashers ... thousands of Cleveland fans in the stands ... it's a 4:15p game so there won't be many season ticket holders ... it's gonna be ug-leeee...
of course the ugliest will be KC @ Jets on 12/29 -- it sure won't be the NBC 8p game ... probably will be 4:15 due to Giants game against NE the night before ...
They played like a team with stagefright. I think the Turkey Day, nationally televised game got to them. Kellen played like a turkey.
FIRE MANMORON, FIRE TANNENBAUM, SELL THE TEAM
p.s This QB is an absolute stiff. START OVER !!!
We need RB, QB, OL,DL, WR, TE
what bunch of losers!
Pinko peaceniks?
You guys are incredible! Give Mangini another season before you start calling for his firing. QB has 4 starts in his career, what did you expect?! How did Peyton Manning do in his first 4 starts? How about Troy Aikman? Shut up already, they're rebuilding.
RB isn't a problem, defenders were in the backfield all game long.
OL, needs work. C is good, RG is good. Everywhere else needs an upgrade.
DL, needs work. Most notably, DT needs upgrade.
For the record, defense did a good job. Offense couldn't do squat. Just a reminder to those not paying attention, Dallas put up at least 24 points against everyone (that includes the Patsies). Jet defense tired out near the end, would've helped if Offense kept them off the field for a breather every so often.
Roger u are clueless. The team has and always will blow. They are trying to be like the pats, yet they have ZERO TALENT!
No big game WR's.
QB is a joke.
OL is pathetic.
DL, LB, CB and Savety all blow....
They are looking at another 5 years of misery in a division that gets better daily!
FIRE MANJERKOFF,,,,,SELL THE TEAM !!!
