    The foundation of this day may be flawed but we can all still share good food with loved ones.
    I hope all of my fellow Blazer fans had a beautiful day surrounded by the ones you love, sharing good times and good food.
    We had 19 people over and i had to buy a second table to seat everyone but it was sooo worth it.

    I hope your day was a fantastic as ours.

    Happy Thanksgiving to all

    Been a nice relaxing day. Cooked a lot of good food with my wife, enjoying some football, hanging with fam. Couldn't be better.

    I honestly had a very nice Thanksgiving.
    Not the feast though. Shared a TV dinner with the kids.
    Watched some of the cowboys game and just got the kids settled down for bed so I tuned in to the second half of the Greenbay game.
    Lots of changes going on in my life right now and this was a much needed day just to sit the kids.

    Hope you all enjoyed Thanksgiving!

    Just got back from my daughters, she had the whole tribe of us there about 25. My wife just told me it was nice not having to host, this year. We also stopped by her mom's, she's 101 1/2.

    Had a fantastic thanksgiving. My mother lives with us, so it was her, my wife and I, and our daughters, and a few of Kaitlen's college teammates.

    The girls went to get shots up at the college but the gym was in use, so they brought three of her teammates who didn't go home for Thanksgiving back to OC to get reps in our local gym. Just a church we have a deal with who gave us a key to the gym.

    Then they came over for dinner and Thanksgiving movies. Had a blast!

    Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

    I’m thankful for the 12-15 years I’ve known you knuckleheads on here and the ESPN forums.

    Hope you all had a good Turkey day.

    We have those exact same table throws pictured underneath the cranberries.
    Thanks for all the work you put in for us to enjoy the Blazer broadcast. All feuds aside, it is appreciated and I am thankful for the work you do. Glad you could enjoy a day off at home within all of the rigorous travels.

    My dinner is tomorrow so spent yesterday cooking, cleaning with silly movies streaming in the background. Airplane, Birdcage, Hard Days Night, Addams Family Values.
    Thankful always for Lashanna. For all who resist.

    Me too. All the work is done.

    Pumpkin pie and left over cinnamon rolls (we do cinnamon rolls for breakfast on Thanksgiving day) with coffee for breakfast.

    Left overs today

    Then we'll make some turkey noodle soup tomorrow.
