Has anyone cooked duck or goose instead of turkey for Thanksgiving?

Have in addition too and had both at Christmas.
Goose, is..... Kind of an aquired taste for lack of better words. It can be good if seasoned and cooked just right, but is gamey as hell and almost fishy and muddy tasting if not. Duck is generally always delicious with the exceptions of a few sea duck species. Again it cooks differently than chicken or domestic turkey.
With waterfowl and wild game birds both it's generally safe to compair it to a bird of ALL dark meat.
