Why squares on Thanksgiving
A Thanksgiving game for the whole family
Thanksgiving is one of the few days the whole family is in one place, and football is part of the day in a lot of homes. Football squares turns the games into something everyone can play together, even the ones who don't follow football.

Anyone can win
No football knowledge needed. Pick a square and watch the score: the cousin who never watches has the same shot as the family expert.
It lasts all day
Three games on Thanksgiving Day and four quarters each, from the early kickoff to the night game, so there's always a winner coming up.
