Im NASCAR Thankful for

By Keith Ott

Hey all, there were a lot of things that didn’t go right this season. A lot! But, then again, there are still things we can be thankful for.

#1, on my list, are the crews and drivers: Don’t care who they work for, or what country their manufacturer has his mansion in, these guys rock. I don’t even care what they get paid. Their work is thrilling, scary and dangerous. That pretty much covers why we watch, ya think?  Them Thar’ guys have earned a well deserved holiday. I’m thankful for that.

#2, on my short list, is us. We, the “Real” fans, who sat through this tedious season, will be back. NASCAR can and will throw whatever at us, and, at the end of the season, we still love racing. I’m thankful for you guys. Yes, even Mike Daly.

That’s it. It was a short list, and I have cooking preps to do.  Another Sr. Chief and I herded up a few shippies, from various ships, that had nowhere to go, and we borrowed a few Canadians (down for exercises) for an American Thanksgiving meal, and, cough, beers and football. It should be fun. I hope you all have a Great One.

What are you thankful for?
