Even at age 74, Aretha Franklin still has it.
The "Queen of Soul" kicked off Thanksgiving Day football Thursday afternoon with a stirring rendition of the national anthem. And while it was certainly excellent, she had no trouble taking her time.

Aretha Franklin is pretty far up at the top of the list of folks who can take however long they want with the national anthem.
