Turkey Day Links (11/26)

Happy Turkey Day to everyone. Hope you're chock full of stuffing and cranberry sauce, but before you slip into your triptofan-enduced coma (and by that I mean watching the Detroit Lions), here are a few Thanksgiving links for you...

-- It's been a lot of negative stories this week, but today is about giving thanks, so my story in the Telegraph is all about the silver linings from this year's Bulldogs season.

-- Coley Harvey has a good story on the close relationship between Rennie Curran and Jonathan Dwyer.

-- I know the coaches have caught a lot of blame this season, but here's something else notable that has certainly tied into Georgia's problems: ESPN's Chris Low offers up his All-SEC Senior Team and there isn't a Bulldog in the group. Certainly Kade Weston, Geno Atkins and Jeff Owens have had solid seasons, but so many of Georgia's other seniors -- Prince Miller, Mike Moore, Joe Cox, Darius Dewberry -- have fallen short of expectations, while the best players from the class of 2006 -- Matt Stafford, Knowshon Moreno, Asher Allen -- left early for the NFL. It's tough to win without much production from your most experienced class.

-- Georgia Sports Blog simplifies the Dawgs' bowl picture, and while I'm not thrilled about a Shreveport trip, there are some intriguing matchups possible for the game.

-- The AJC warns of the dangers of firing a coach too soon.

-- If Uga is going digital, Every Day Should Be Saturday gives a nice blueprint for how it should be done.

-- From the Rumble Seat has a list of 10 reasons Tech hates UGA.

-- This just about sums up why I'll eventually be out of a job no matter how many people read my stuff online.

-- I'm shocked one of Lane Kiffin's players wasn't involved in this.

-- "Lost" will be going up against the most popular new show on TV when it returns in the spring.

-- The Straight Dope uses some scientific evidence to prove spontaneous combustion exists, but they could have simply watched "Spinal Tap."

-- I couldn't agree more with Adam Buckman's take on the last season of "Curb Your Enthusiasm."

-- Once you're done with the leftovers, I love this flow chart on where to get fast food no matter your situation. (h/t C-Nati)

-- And these are good times...
