Alright, this is Jerry Parrish again from CBS Sports. It's now... look at the color. Wednesday, November 25th, I really lost track of days.

0:17.0

Come on, it's the day before Thanksgiving. It is the day before Thanksgiving. It's like one of the first Christmas presents.

0:20.0

But see, the day before Thanksgiving is a little tricky though, because like the day before Christmas is December 24th. Every year.

0:26.0

You know, the day before New Year's is December 31st. Every year. Day before Thanksgiving. That could be anything. It could be November 25th. It could be November 23rd.

0:33.0

I guess so, man. It's such an awesome week. I'm just surprised. You know what? It's been a busy week.

0:40.0

So you probably lost track of all the things that are going on.

0:43.0

No, I do. I do like this week. Do you... you guys... I know you don't Sam. Matt, do you live around family? Do you have... do you guys have real Thanksgiving?

0:51.0

I feel Thanksgiving is like... see, my family and my wife's family, like they all live here. So we like have massive Thanksgiving deals.

0:58.0

Oh yeah. No, we do. My both are... my parents and my wife's parents are within an hour. But this year we're actually under our own accord.

1:07.0

We... this will be the first time. We're doing our own family thing at home.

1:11.0

How about that? And just... Amy wife... Amy wife in the kid. And watch some football. And I watch some basketball and all that stuff.

1:19.0

And I actually... I got to go shopping later today because I am a pescatarian. It's no turkey for me.

1:24.0

And I know turkey... no turkey for GP either. I think he actually believes in taco Thanksgiving's. But I got to go pick up a nice piece of swordfish or something later and cook it for tomorrow.

1:33.0

I believe in fillets for Thanksgiving. I just... I have... I have a fundamental belief. And I gather that more and more people are catching on to this.

1:40.0

That... Okay, first off, turkey is fine. But that's what it is. It's fine. And the idea that we built an entire holiday around eating turkey is the fourth straight.

1:51.0

See, you're on the top right now.

1:52.0

I'm gonna keep banging this drum into everybody understands. Like when you go to a nice restaurant, people might order steak. They might order fish. They might even order chicken.

2:04.0

Nobody orders turkey. They're ain't a turkey bell. There's a taco bell. You know why? Because people like... like love tacos. There's Kentucky Fried Chicken. You want to know why? People love chicken. You ever heard of a Kentucky Fried Turkey?

2:16.0

No. Why not? Because there's no demand for that. So why do you want to sit around on this beautiful holiday and eat something that is quite... quite clearly an inferior food all day long?

2:28.0

I'm so anti-Turkey, I'll deal with that. I can mess around with ham. But I can't get involved with turkey. I'll be eating steak tomorrow.

2:35.0

And I've also reached the point where we're old enough now. I'm old enough now. Where I can make my home the home. Like when I was a kid, we go to my grandmother's for Thanksgiving, right?

2:46.0

And then in my young adult years, we go to my father's or my mother's or whatever. And... but now it's like, okay, we're gonna do it at my house. And that's like the past.
