What up man. You mind posting a forum topic on this? The who, what, when type stuff. Would really appreciate it!
The Hype has begun for the 2011 edition of the Turkey Bowl. That’s right, the game to end all games, the War of the Roses, the North versus the South, The Bedlam Game, the Us versus them, the Italians versus the rest of the world. You name it the game has it. The epic grudge match that is more commonly known as the 2011 Edition of the Turkey Bowl. And so it shall be. The game is scheduled for 10 am thanksgiving morning at Infinity park. Glendale. Auxiliary field and the rosters look impressive and stacked.
The Pre game hype was stoked at the annual kickoff luncheon held at the fabulous and spacious Park Hill Golf Driving Range in front of a throng of other golfers trying to hit golf balls. As usual the game’s North squad will be led by Sports Caster of the year, Channel 4’s own Vic Lombardi and his squad of celebrities and hoodlums versus the South Squad let by venerable Super Sports Agent Peter Schaffer and his team of ringers, NFLer’s and friends from all over the Denver and the globe. The game is as exciting for its great plays as for its malapropos.

Please bring and invite all kids as they are all welcome to enjoy the festivities and wear their favorite jerseys.
As South Head Coach Lynn Watwood "you do if I sang out of tune” said at the press conference announcing the game held appropriately on the Friday prior to Halloween evening "I can’t wait for this game this year. We have three goals for the game this year – to beat the day lights out of the South squad, the help raise money for a great cause, Morgan Adams Foundation and the third goal is, well it is, I am trying to remember the third goal, ah yes the Environmental protection agency."
Of course the North Teams Head Coach, Quarterback, multi time Emmy award winning Sportscaster Vic Lombardi was not to be out done. When asked about allegations of improper behavior on his part in the selection and recruiting of his team this year after last year’s debacle, Lombardi stated “We play to win the game, and I always feel that football team with players named Butkus, Lombardi, Unitas and Namath has a better chance of winning then a team with names like Schaffer, Randall, and Brown – sounds more like a law firm then an imposing team. We play to win the game!!”
