Are you ready for some Turducken?
I've got a couple of quick links and then some very exciting news regarding this Thursday's NFL games. First, however, I direct you once again to Norman Chad's ruminations about the BCS. Next, Dana Milbank has an interesting column comparing Bush to Nixon, at least stylistically. I think her comparisions are a little weak, for example saying that Bush is similiar to Nixon because both focus on White House staff, rather than cabinent officials, in terms of centralizing power throughout the administation. Nixon destroyed the cabinent-based form of government, and every President since Nixon has centralized power in the White House. This is not unique to Bush.

Now for the interesting stuff. This year's Thanksgiving games will once again be throwback games. The Pack will wear Lombardi-era threads, while the Lions will once again throw-back to the thirties. The Cowboys will wear the 1960-inspired blue jersey with white stars on the sleaves, and the Dolphins will go with their 70's white duds.

NFL.com has throwback logos for almost every team up on their site for the week. And, check this article from Packers.com for a detailed description of how the throwbacks different from the contemporary unis.

Happy Throwback Jersey Day, everybody!

Jerks--

Now Tony isn't the only one to make it onto a washingtonpost.com livechat!

By some stroke of luck, I made it onto the Humor chat today.

P.S. What do y'all think of the orange Dolphins jersey they used on Sunday? Looks like the old Broncos jersey.
