Absolutely. I miss having Thanksgiving lunch/dinner at the tailgate and then going to watch the game. Gave me just enough time to see the family; and once I got sick of being around them, it was time to go to the game.

Usually, the Thanksgiving day NFL games are not the greatest, but this year we have three tremendous matchups, including the Saints at Dallas. For several years it was great to be the only game on the air, but the the 6 p.m. Saturday schedule for this year is pretty awesome too.

I'd prefer Friday or the way it is. I don't like the idea of traveling from family to family having to cram in time for everyone PLUS the Dawgs. If they move it back, I wonder how many families wouldn't attend like mine. I can tell I'm in the minority here though.

Same here Nashville. Thanksgiving has always been about spending time together with my family. I got in the dog house a few times for leaving early on Thanksgiving to go to the game.

I'm pretty sure he said that shortly after he took the job. I think it's a good idea, especially if we continue our move up in the college football world. People would want to watch it.

I would at least likethe Egg Bowlmoved back to Friday and the Iron Bowl back to Saturday at 2:30. I grew up an Auburn fan, and hated to see them change the day of the Iron Bowl to Friday.I think tomorrowwill bethemost unproductive work day in Alabama.

I wish people wouldn't mess with rivalries. The Iron Bowl should be moved back to Saturday, and the Egg Bowl should be moved back to either Thursday or Friday.

Call Gran on Thanksgiving and go visit her that weekend. Tell her to look for all of you on TV and cheer for the Dogs

See the family early and head to the game. Plus is doesn't mess up the last good weekend of the first gun season.

Thanksgiving is a 2 day off work free vacation to me, nothing more. I eat every day, and can visit with my family any day. I'll take all the football I can handle.

Haven't been to an EB in a while, but the '98 and '99 games were awesome on Thanksgiving. Of course that was 12 years, 2 wives and 2 kids ago, too.
