It is that time of the year again…..Thanksgiving! One of my favorite holidays, mainly because of the food, but more importantly it makes me feel very grateful for all of wonderful things in my life. There are so many things to be thankful for, but most importantly my wife Michelle, and my two boys Logan, and Trenton. Today I was sitting on the couch, and Logan came up to me and said, “Daddy, you are my favorite friend!” Wow, tear to my eye, and one of those priceless memories.
Thanksgiving also brings that wonderful tradition of Lions football, as I know all of you Michiganders keep near and dear to your heart. I have read numerous articles lately about how the Lions shouldn’t get to play on Thanksgiving anymore because of their recent history. I say NO WAY, how can you take something away that has been a Thanksgiving tradition for so long. I know they haven’t been the best team in recent years, or decades, but they are always our team…..Detroit’s team, Michigan’s Team. It is our one time a year to show the nation…..Detroit, and hopefully soon, the Lions will be back on top, and all of those doubters will be eating their words. I will be a Lions fan through thick and tin, and I definitely see a light at the end of the tunnel. Go Lions!!!
Lastly Thanksgiving brings us that lovely white fluffy stuff called snow. Not sure I am ready for it, but it is in the forecast for the weekend. I guess it is time to prepare for it. I still vow to move south someday, but will take what I get for now. HAPPY THANKSGIVING ALL!!!
Happy Thanksgiving Tim!!! And I agree, the Lions MUST play on Thanksgiving!!! Its a tradition
