Thanksgiving Weekend "Thankful for Winning"

Green bay did it again this Thanksgiving as they remaind perfect against the now 7-4 Lions in their NFC north showdown on thrusday. The Packers offense started slow and didnt score untill late in the second quarter, thanks to the great play by their defense the packers maintained a 7 point lead heading into halftime. In the second half the offense woke up and threw on another 20 points (thanks in part to the ejection of Ndamukong Suh), but so did the lions offence throwing on 15 points in the fourth quarter to make it look like a game. But the Packers held on to win 27-15.

Packers 27, Lions 15

The 16th ranked Badgers also had a great thanksgiving rolling over 19th ranked Penn State in their final Big Ten game of the regular season. Wisconsin got the ball first but was forced to punt leading to the 44 yard TD pass to Curtis Drake (Penn States only score of the game). On the following possesion wisconsin marched down the field and Russle Wilson connected with Jared Abbrederis for their only score in the first quarter. In the second quarter the high power'd offense of wisconsin exploadid with three TD's, 2 of wich belonged to none other than Montee Ball putting him at 32 on the season. in the 3rd quarter Wisconsin continued their routing as Montee Ball put on 2 more Touchdowns bringing his game total to 4 and his season total to 34 (only 6 away from breaking Barry Sanders alltime record of 39 in one season). And in the forth quarter the badgers topped of their lead by adding a field goal to make the score 45-7 to end the game and to propell themselves into the Big Ten Championship game in a remach against Michagan St. for a spot in the Rose Bowl.

(16) Wisconsin,  (19) Penn State. 

What Im Thankful For

In my life their are many things im thankful for, and many things i take for granted, and one of the things that i take for granted that i should be thankful for is that i get to go home every night to a family that loves me.
