I love Thanksgiving. It might be my favorite holiday. Comfort food combined with football is pretty close to heaven by my measure. But the day is about more than that. It is about the characters and personalities who you share it with. There is the uncle who talks to...
We have much to be thankful for this week, including the return of the NFL’s best rivalry. Harbaugh vs. Carroll. Sherman vs. Crabtree. Kaepernick vs. People Who Don’t Kiss Their Biceps. The two toughest teams in football square off for the first time this season, and as usual, much...
