The Foodspin Thanksgiving Reader

Does <em>Sharknado</em> Crack The Shitty Movie Hall Of Fame?
There's been a lot of press surrounding last night's Syfy debut of Sharknado 2: The Second One.

Legendary old school troll Dan Shaughnessy has a real strong take in today's Boston Globe about how soccer sucks.

How The Media Abuse Hank Aaron
On Tuesday, the Braves celebrated the 40th anniversary of Hank Aaron's 715th career home run, and the mindless debate over who is baseball's "true home run king" sprang idiotically to life. Barry Bonds "has more home runs," Sports Illustrated's Tom Verducci wrote, "but true greatness and authenticit...

Forty years ago today, Hank Aaron hit the 715th home run of his career, surpassing Babe Ruth's mark of 714 and setting the all-time career home run record.

This Photo Is An April Fools' Joke, But We Wish It Weren't
No, Hank the dog did not bite one of the Milwaukee Brewers sausage racers on the dick, but we really wish he had.
