My thoughts by Paul M. Dugan

 More Thanksgiving details on here.   Well, ND FOOTBALL was off this past weekend but got two injures on O-line but I hope it doesn't hurt much the team.  You can't control this.  Details for NCAA SPORTS or NCAA EDUCATION stuff.  Earlier this week Mom & I made a homemade pumpkin pie from a pumpkin from Trader Joe's recipe before Thanksgiving.  Pictures of my food are on social networks... Mom & I made a very yummy lasagna for us this weekend also.   It went very well & made garlic bread just the first night having it. If you needs to see the NCAA polls for Men basketball & Women basketball before the start of the season.  ND MEN BASKETBALL starts 28th of NOV. 2020 on Saturday (time?) versus Michigan State in the ACC / B1G challenge - B1G (BIG10) channel to watch the game.  GO IRISH!!!!!!!! For this THANKSGIVING I hope we have all the things we need for the odd special holiday. BOTH POLLS for top 25 college football will be on here later this week.
