Coaches,

We all know family is the greatest gift in the world. But i wanted to start a thread giving thanks to miniature football and what is has done for me.

We (The miniature football society) are blessed beyond comprehension. This hobby has afforded many of us to meet the greatest friends money can't buy.If it were not for MF many of us would just walk by each other and be classified as just another stranger. These tiny plastic figures have brought grown men together for a lifetime to come. Im thankful for the joy and excitement this hobby has given to me. This chat board is occupied so much it can be considered a second home. You guy's are my extended family. I feel alot closer to you coaches/friends than the people on my job who i see 8 hours per day.

Im thankful for all the miniature football items i was fortunate enough to acquire over the years. (If only i can put together some wins)

Some of our Miniature football family lost loves ones over the past couple years. norbert, Will travers, Corey, Geno and Flynt hendricks. The great Don Smith and his wife lisa lost there beloved horse, "BO". I just want you guy's to know i care, we care. Physically i won't be in your homes this holiday season , but if you take a closer look just beyond the candied yams, im the guy with the mantaray jersey on.

MANTARAY- DRE

EVERYONE PLEASE CONTINUE WITH YOUR OWN PERSONAL THOUGHTS

Happy holidays, PASSING A PLATE TO>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

"Finding" my way back to EF through the excitement and interest of my son is definitely one of the best things that has happened to me in the past few years. Another fun experience that my son and I can share together. Making some new friends through joining the NYEFL like J-Dub, Lee (Doomsday), Air Jimenez, Johnny Thomas and Papa Bear. Guys that are good men to share a hobby afternoon with and good examples for my son. Putting to use some skills and tools that have been under utilized for too long. Posting and chatting with some of you here - like when I was busting chops with my live chat posts during the Cowboys-49ers internet broadcast - Reginald -amazing stuff.

All very much appreciated and looking forward tomuch, much more - getting into some tournaments, MFCA Convention,etc!!!

Thank you all and thank you Dre for starting this thread.

for the zest of life! I give thanks for all of the MFers who have supported what I have done and will do in the future. I give thanks for all the many MFers who push the envelope in the game. I give thanks to all that give what I do a chance to live.

I give thanks to having that opportunity to meet new and interesting people who I in all likelihood, never have met. I give thanks to modern technology which allows me to show things to people who may never have gotten to see the things that I do.

I give thanks for being associated with the good people of the game.

Something I read the other day, thought you might enjoy:

Count our Blessings instead of our Crosses
Count our Gains instead of our Losses
Count our Joys instead of our Woes
Count our Friends instead of our Foes
Count our Smiles instead of our Tears
Count on Courage instead of our Fears
Count our Full Years instead of our Lean
Count our Kind Deeds instead of our Mean
Count our Health instead of our Wealth
and Count on God instead of Ourself

Have a Happy and Safe Thanksgiving

Best Regards,
