Jim Harbaugh’s Family Won’t Eat Turkey On Thanksgiving Because Of This NBC Segment

Add Jim Harbaugh to the growing number of people eating tofu turkey this Thanksgiving. (Or is it “tofurkey”? Regardless, it doesn’t sound appetizing.) The 49ers head coach was watching Sunday Night Football when NBC showed turkeys being led away to slaughter (presumably). The Harbaugh children reacted in kind.

We were planning on having turkey — but then they showed this piece where they were showing all the turkeys and everything and my son Jack and Katie and Addie, ‘Look at the turkeys. Look at all the turkeys there.’ And they were getting excited looking at the turkeys.”

“And then the next shot was they had loaded the turkeys onto a truck and they were driving them away and the kids were like, ‘Where are they going?’ And we kind of thought maybe we won’t have turkey this year for Thanksgiving. So, we’re in discussion on that,” Harbaugh said. “We’ll have some tofu or something.”

Way to go, NBC. Way to ruin Thanksgiving! Maybe for an encore, you could show Santa crashing his sleigh on Christmas Eve.
