Forget the Eagles.
At least for one day.
Thanksgiving belongs to high school football. And here in Delaware County, we will be serving up a special holiday treat.
Upper Darby and Haverford will collide tomorrow in their traditional Turkey Day contest, only this time there is a little extra incentive. The Central League football crown will be on the line.
As you might expect, we will have full team coverage of what is being called perhaps the biggest Thanksgiving Day game in Delco history. And yes, that is saying something.
Today in sports, Matt Smith previews the big game. Make sure you check it out at our home for high school sports, PaPrepLive.com. Columnist Matt DeGeorge takes a look at the last time the two teams met with this much on the line.
Then in tomorrow's holiday edition (which will actually hit the streets later today), we delve into the way both the Upper Darby and Haverford communities are rallying around this huge game.
Don't miss this special holiday edition of the Daily Times, which also will be packed with all the circulars you will need to kick off your Black Friday shopping.
Oh, and one other thing:
Happy Thanksgiving.
