The pro football turkey

The pro football team had just finished their daily practice session when a large turkey came strutting onto the field. While the players gazed in amazement, the turkey walked up to the head coach and demanded a tryout.

Everyone stared in silence as the turkey caught pass after pass and ran right through the defensive line. When the turkey returned to the sidelines, the coach shouted, «You’re terrific!!! Sign up for the season, and I’ll see to it that you get a huge bonus.»

«Forget the bonus,» the turkey said, «All I want to know is, does the season go past Thanksgiving Day?»



My home my castle.
