We at The Dugout are always thankful for the off-season. While baseball's going on, we occasionally feel compelled to post chats based upon real-world happenings. But once November hits, we screw around. We screw around boldly and without remorse.To "kick off" (insider term) Thanksgiving festivities today, here is a Dugout in which Kyle Farnsworth attempts to make sense of Detroit Lions football. It's after the jump.

Yes . . . nothing says Thanksgiving like eating a bunch of turkey, drinking beer . . . and watching the Lions get their asses kicked on national television. Again. (and no, I don't dislike the Lions)
Some things never change.
