Happy Thanksgiving, ya'll!


It is now officially Thanksgiving. No, I haven't done some weird family right of passage or anything, it's 1 in the morning. I am putting a few finishing touches on a post I made to Bleacher Report and I am about to head off to bed. I have a battle with 12 pound bird when I wake up and I will need all the sleep I can muster.

I figured I would write a bit about what I am thankful for over this past year. I am thankful that Chelsea has done so well. Thankful that the head coaching job at Tennessee will get a breath of new life. But seriously, I am thankful for the time that I was able to spend with my wonderful friends this summer. And I am thankful that they let me be a part of their big day. I am thankful that my friend Country has not blown himself up yet. Thankful that I have gotten through four out of six terms of graduate school. I am thankful that I was able to make it home for the holidays and, God willing, I will make it back home for Christmas. Most importantly, I am thankful, not only now but every day of the year, that I am live in the greatest country in the world.

...also, Josh, if you read this, I did not cry at the Bordeaux goal. I cried when I realized that Man U is STILL 8 points off of both Chelsea and Liverpool.
