Thanksgiving greetings to all of you!
I am traveling this year and my good spirits (referring to my mood and not alcoholic beverages...well actually both) have come with me. I know for certain that my zest for food has done so as well.
It looks to be a brilliant weather day here in the Northeastern/Mid-Atlantic states, a perfect day for a morning Turkey Bowl. I do not expect to lace up my retired cleats nor don my weathered receiver gloves this year as more of my efforts will be spent nestled up to the dinner table.
I do miss the Thanksgiving morning football game with old friends which was always slated to begin "sharply" at 10:00AM. This starting time proved over and over to be quite ambitious as Thanksgiving Eve in Bronxville was, and probably still is, the grandest, how do I say, "go-out" night of the year. Not at all conducive to an early out of bed scenario followed by plenty of athletic movements and half-hearted sprints. Who knows though, the team has recently become quite fond of "American Football" and begin each practice warming up with something that very slightly resembles the sport. Thus, for me, there may be a return to the gridiron forthcoming. Maybe I should even wait by the phone for a call from the Jets coach Rex Ryan (speaking of big eaters) to suit up...
In any case, I hope that all of you celebrating the day have a wonderful feast of fellowship. Thanksgiving truly is one of my favorite days of the year.
Be well everybody.
