Astros Turkey Boil: Thanksgiving, 2023

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone (except for Mike Fiers)! Enjoy your turkey and your football!

Thanksgiving is for family (and food, and football). With that in mind, I’d like to wish my TCB family a happy Thanksgiving. All year long, I look forward to the “next game,” whether that’s tomorrow night or I have to wait until Spring Training. I’m thankful for all of you here sharing the gameday experience in the GameThreads and in the daily Boils. It’s hard to imagine what life was like before we were able to share the game with strangers on the internet, but we’re strangers with benefits, and that’s the best kind of stranger.
