Thanksgiving is here, which also means rivalry weekend is also here. Rivalry weekend is a time for colleges to hate each other and its okay. This is the weekend we grow tough skin and try and bear it through until we hopefully win the game. My favorite part of rivalries is the trash talking, whether my team wins or loses, I can always throw out a few more insults, so here are some ways you can cook up some good burns to your least favorite team.

Go for the looks.

Whether anyone likes to admit it or not, being told you are less attractive team on the field can really sting. And as well all know very well, football players are the most sensitive type of people, so what better way to lower self esteems of opposing schools, is to insult their looks. For example, "Hey at least our quarterback isn't half mutant." Or maybe aim towards the students and not the team, say something along the lines of, "You're ugly and we're not." I am not keen on being actually mean, just enough so they know they suck.

Attack the mascot.

The best way to really piss off a school or a team is to ridicule their own name, they literally cannot escape it even if they try. Take the Ohio State Buckeyes -- a buckeye is a nut, who the hell wants to be a nut? Not eye. Get it? And then of course take the Florida Gators, good try, but a gator is just a wannabe crocodile, who hides amongst shrubbery to avoid human contact, very similar to their students. But let's not forget about the schools that have not one, but two mascots. Oh, yeah, Alabama and Auburn because why not have one mascot when you can have two, and why not marry a stranger when you can marry your cousin? Always thinking ahead!

History.

It's actually pretty simple; if a team consistently loses, year after year, it is easier and more fun to trash talk them, but when they stay in the past, it is our due diligence to remind them of the past several years, and how past players were clearly more talented. So, just say, "Hey, maybe if you weren't so busy counting how many wins there were in the '70s, you might be able to remember how to throw a touchdown."

Individual players.

Now, this is a tricky one because personal attacks can get pretty heated, but that's what makes it a rivalry so I am all about it. Like when good ole Jameis stole the crab legs over a year ago, we knew what was coming and welcomed it. However, when we point out that a certain quarterback at a certain school with the colors orange and blue recently got into some trouble of his own, they weren't as welcoming with the trash talk, but that's expected from them. And a good way to attack a specific person on a team is to get creative, do some research, and then get to Facebook and go to town.

I don't know about you guys, but I do enjoy my trash talk. We just all have to remember this is one weekend when we get to butt heads and tear each other apart over a sport. And at the end of the day, it is all in good fun so don't cry too much -- you hear that, Florida?
