Last year, when I was doing this column for Blogger, I complied a list of things I'm thankful for in regards to football.

This year, I'd like to continue the tradition, in honor of the Thanksgiving holiday.

So without any further ado, I now present to you ten things I'm thankful for in regards to the NFL.

 

1. I'm thankful for Matt Cassel. A man who patiently waited for his opportunity to shine and has made the most of it. His pinpoint passing ability has kept the Patriots in the thick of the AFC East.

 

2. I'm thankful for fantasy football. For it has allowed to take a vested interest in every team in the NFL, not just my hometown team.

 

3. I'm thankful for media idiots who think they know everything like Chris Collinsworth and Tiki Barber. They make my job easier sometimes.

4

. I'm thankful for surprise teams like the Titans and Falcons that make the NFL more interesting then anticipated.

 

5. I'm thankful for Randy Moss, nobody makes catches the way he does.

 

6. I'm thankful for Michael Turner, he's fun to watch, and he's carrying my fantasy team.

 

7. I'm thankful for scumbags like Terrell Owens and Joey Porter who run their mouthand motivate teams to humiliate them.

 

8. I'm thankful for Thanksgiving and Super Bowl Sunday, they're the only two days of the year where it's okay to watch football and stuff for face.

 

9. I'm thankful for Robert Kraft, if it wasn't for him, the Patriots would be no more in New England

 

10. Most of all, I'm thankful for my fans, especially people Ryan Droege who takes the time to edit and critique me week after week. You folks are the reason I keep doing this column. Your opinions and suggestions are always valued and appreciated.

 

If you like offensive football, this week was for you, as the bullet points will now show.
