Bobby Wagner’s Thanksgiving Take
In a candid admission, Washington Commanders linebacker Bobby Wagner revealed that he isn’t particularly fond of the traditional Thanksgiving fare. His reluctance isn’t rooted in a lack of appreciation for the holiday itself, but rather a strong aversion to the typical food staples that adorn many Thanksgiving tables.
The Turkey Dilemma
Thanksgiving, as we know, is synonymous with turkey and an array of side dishes. Despite Wagner’s personal preferences, he acknowledges the cultural significance of these dishes. Each item in a classic Thanksgiving spread plays a vital role, contributing to the overall experience of the holiday meal.
A Lighthearted Thanksgiving Celebration
To embrace the spirit of the holiday, rookie running back Jacory ‘Bill’ Croskey-Merritt joined in on the fun, offering his own take on the Thanksgiving lineup. “Cranberry sauce? Me,” Croskey-Merritt declared with enthusiasm. “Because cranberry sauce makes everything good.” His playful assertion highlights the camaraderie and lightheartedness that often accompanies holiday discussions among teammates.
As the Commanders celebrate Thanksgiving, players like Wagner and Croskey-Merritt remind us that while not everyone may relish the traditional menu, the spirit of togetherness remains at the heart of the holiday.
