Our Thanksgiving tradition including a Turkey Bowl soccer game back in the day

for some reason it is only the infinite of Sozialwissenschaftlern, much football and football games is in our neighbourhood of parks tomorrow morning. Families and friends are peaks until it by combining sport a pre-release fixed celebration with Thanksgiving day. (Why, I bet, it was the first Indian 37-17 in pilgrims, the Turkey Bowl.) (The Indians of the big losers were of course in later years.)

Once we have our own entry in this tradition. My wife has a large family, as brothers and cousins, brothers-in-law and pals, is all in various States of fitness and skill, it started around in1980 kick on below at Riverview Gardens high school. We had a few beer and again in a way that borrowed value on the holiday.

The favourite "Tower logging" and threats "Nail", the cousin which dribbelte by our legs it was time to families, which at that time were all in a growth pattern. Always good could be expected old uncle Dickie again depend on the objective, away with only one of the many rules we not enforced and the pump in his share of pictures. The "Köller classic", as it was called, grew in popularity, which probably its peak year Uncle buddy for the red and Golden jerseys sprung, and my brother in law one Jerry's jeweler of pals put up fake Rolex for the MVP award. A year has been a sky dive Kumpel go on the field, but, Oh, under heaven put a damper great appearance. We had a great time Turkey Bowl in those days, and played a pretty good indicator of the ball. Raised as our children to games in the match with it was a ritual of transition for the male members of clan to move on their part to play the "Great".

So most of the women folk home baking and cooking and music albums listen to Barry Manilow and the Osmonds Christmas issue we were our part in the days to perform family.

But how to do things tend, were difficult, all together come each year. Families grew up changed obligations, sons leave town. What drove. It's been 6 years since the last survey. And the founder of the game, my generation? Now, some of us hung in more than others, but we are not the wheels that simply no longer. Using you to be I could scoot to a football pitch for hours. Now, I wonder just a game, as I ever did. (I could not be running when I was today smack in the way of a gorilla 5 tons.) (He would my shoelaces his teeth with dental floss.)

So what it looks like I will in way of the preparations in this year. Or maybe I can find some "Old rabbit" for a game, where we to go small trucks and Scrum with the leaves search, slice.

I, to dig up that red T-Shirt under my new Argyle sweater bear, sitting with some grandchildren before the fire, and dream scoring winners.

And grateful for the memories.
