Turkey Day Roundtable, hashtag #Thanksgiving. America.

What in the hell kind of food and sports blog would this be if we didn't talk about Thanksgiving? It's one of the quintessential holidays that combines food and sports, specifically turkey and football. It doesn't get a whole lot better than that.

Thanksgiving is an American staple. It is America. Nevermind the backstory with the Pilgrims and the Indians and who did what and where. It is a celebration of freedom and utilizing that freedom to its fullest by filling our stomachs to the fullest.

With that in mind, @jwmillion (JM) and myself @weltmoney (JW) have decided to give you a little taste (pun intended) of our thoughts on Thanksgiving. We held a little roundtable and have saved a place at the table for you. Enjoy.

1) Describe your dream turkey.
JM: There is no doubt my dream fowl is deep-fried. Injected with a generous amount of garlic butter and delicately rubbed with my special mix of spices and herbs. I like it fried to the point I get a crunch from the skin but everything else melts in my mouth.

JW: My dream turkey is fulfilling its ultimate purpose, after living a long, meaningful life. It is a deep-fried, cajun turkey surrounded by all of its friends at the Thanksgiving table. It is both firm, but moist and occasionally it is blanketed in a delicious gravy.
