Joe Walsh likes to mention Franklin's opinion when he's on a solo tour to point out just how close his band was to being named the Turkeys.

At least I think that's what he said. He can be a little tough to follow sometimes.

Man, just think if our bird would have ended up the turkey. We might just be eagle for Thanksgiving.

Could be worse, Nick, as my mother-in-law pointed out after a wee nip or several of Thanksgiving brandy. Consider if the Pilgrims had gone out and shot wildcats. We'd all be sitting down to eat pussy.
