SpursTalk.com's 1000 Things

[Kori Ellis]

This thread is dedicated to the 1000 things that we are thankful for this holiday season. At this time, I wanted to thank all of you for participating in the forum. It's cliche to say "without you, this wouldn't be possible." So I won't say it :)

Though Thanksgiving is a US holiday, I'm sure that everyone around the globe is thankful for something.

(We don't need to countdown from 1000, we'll know by the post count if we reach 1000.)

Happy Thanksgiving!

So, I'm start it off ...

My husband, health, success (whatever that means), SpursTalk, Manolo Blahnik shoes and a good steak.

[SpursWillOwn]

Disneyworld for giving me the opportunity to have my internship there. See you next year San Antonioooooooooo.

[1Parker1]

I am Thankful for My Family and Friends, Their Good Health and Mine, and the Spurs for giving me an outlet to take my mind off stuff when things get hard. :tu

[travis2]

My family, my friends here, and the fact that this place is still around even when I take a break for a while ;)

[jmard5]

For having a job, for having a good family, for having genuine friends and for having a wonderful and loving fiancee... getting married next year!

Cheers everyone! :toast

[j-6]

March 14th.

And last but not least thank you to my supervisors at my job for helping me through some difficult times.

[phyzik]

[Walter Craparita]

[Streakyshooter08]

My family, my girlfriend, health, Basketball, Spurs and good music.

[midgetonadonkey]

I'd like to thank Robert Kamen for writing the screenplay to the movie that taught me many life lessons as a child and continues to be a huge part of my life, The Karate Kid. I would also like to thank Peter Engel for creating Saved by the Bell. Without the SBTB gang I wouldn't have had anyone to relate to during my adolescent years.

The Miller Brewing Company for keeping my local corner store stocked up with Olde English. Without those 40oz beers I would have completely gone crazy. And finally I would like to thank Shigeru Miyamoto for creating Super Mario. Without him the video game world would not be where it is today.

Oh yeah, and I'm also very thankful for Reggae music.

[Mister Sinister]

My friends, for keeping me alive despite all my best efforts to dick myself over.

[drunkendan]

My beautiful wife and daughter. Good family, good friends, and good times. I'm also thankful for my new house that I'll be moving into next week.

[shelshor]

Friends, family and being able to retire early enough to enjoy retirement

[SAtown]

[dougp]

My fiancee (even though she's a Mavs fan), my family, my career and the SPURS & COWBOYS!

[samikeyp]

My family, my friends, my job and the freedom to enjoy them all.

[BigVee]

37 years of marriage to the same wonderful woman, 5 children, 10 grandchildren, and two Texas teams ( one currently 9-1 the other 9-2) even though I live in SoCal

[Kori Ellis]

37 years of marriage to the same wonderful woman, 5 children, 10 grandchildren

That's awesome!

[Slomo]

My Wife and Daughter. My family. A bunch of crazy friends I have coffee with every morning before going to the office.

I have to mention ST because despite my conviction it was impossible, I have in fact met real friends on these internets and the facts that it helps me unwind in the evening and takes my mind off more serious stuff.

[smeagol]

a good steak.

Come to Argentina and your wish will come true :toast

I'm thankfull for my wife and kids, our health and well-being, my family and friends . . . and that sequ doesn't seem to hate Manu anymore.

[bdictjames]

That African steak I just had last night, with fried rice. Best thing I've ever tasted.

[Kori Ellis]

Come to Argentina and your wish will come true :toast




We will probably be coming to Chile and Argentina in February :tu

[spurschick]

My two kittens who always make me smile despite whatever else is going on in my life. My friends who still love me despite my flaws. And to the game of basketball and sport in general... the greatest distraction in the world.

[jman3000]

well... due to an illness in the family we won't be having thanksgiving tomorrow, rather we'll have it on sunday when she gets out of the hospital. i'd be thankful for her recovery, and i'm also thankful for the opportunity i've been given today and the possibilities for tomorrow.

[Brutalis]

I'm thankful for my family, my job, my new Yukon so I don't bum rides anymore.

Also thankful for my health, mental and physical. Been through what was hopefully the climatic finish of stress recently and I'm glad I didn't lose myself in the ordeal.

[Shelly]

The usual...family, friends, etc.

And chocolate.

[E20]

Spurstalk is thankful for E20 gracing his presence on the board.

[~Sweetmelody~]

I am thankful for my wonderful husband; he really is the best thing that could of happened to me. It has been 9 great years!
I am also thankful for my mother, I am very blessed to have her in my life.
And last but not least my two favorite message boards, this one for the pure entertainment, and my girls board (will not promote, lol) where I have met some great friendships.

[Johnny_Blaze_47]

My family (who I consider my friends) and the people I've met from ST (some of who are one and the same), finally securing a job I think might be a good start to my career and a few personal things...

[Leetonidas]

My friends, family, and the Spurs for kicking ass. :toast

[marini martini]

My wonderful friends, and most of my family, my new grandchild comming in May. Good Gin with 2 olives, my icemaker, reality t.v., the Spurs, and finding Spurs Talk, & all the laughs, I ever wanted :toast

[easjer]

I am so thankful for my husband and my mother (the two most important people in the world to me) and the rest of my family, including safe delivery of my new nephew. I am so thankful for my new job, which is a gift beyond reason, allowing so many new opportunities and the funds to start a family (hopefully this summer). I am thankful for my friends who keep me sane. I am thankful for the roof above my head, the bed that keeps me sleeping, the food on the table, the grace in my life. I'm thankful for my health, and for the health of all the people I love. I'm thankful for my dog and cat. I'm thankful for the Spurs and for basketball and for a fun place to talk about both.

[word]

After 7 hours of driving and a bad breakfast burrito some small town gas station, I am GRATEFUL to be in a hotel room next to a bathroom. ( The last 3 hours, harrowing...)

I will now rest up and see if I can pull off the second leg this evening.

[sa_butta]

A little help....

http://espn.go.com/

(bottom right corner)

[foodie2]

For my husband, and for finding him after a long and terrible first marriage; for my two wonderful adult children, and for my 1 1/2 grandchildren. And for beating breast cancer, 10 years ago.

[DannyT]

gotta give props to the troops for doing what they do....

I am thankful for my fam, my fortune(which includes friends and material things), and the Lord.

Thanks ST for all you do for us to help us get through the day at work....

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

I'll give thanks for my mom, dad, little sister, parents & sisters-in-law, my cousins, aunts, uncles, and my grandma who also live in my town. And (wait for it....) my 12 cats (both parents, 1 adopted, and 9 kids[6 just born 3 months ago]), and of course SpursTalk. :)

But this year my most thanks goes to my brother, who can't make it for Thanksgiving because he is currently still in training for the army. I haven't seen him since early July and through that time I've realized how awesome of a brother he really was. We had our ups and downs, the days we played together all day, and the days we fought all day. But no matter what, at the end of the day we were just happy to have each other. I didn't think that I would miss him so much because for about the last year before he went away, we never really hung out as much nor did we talk as much, so I thought it would be easier for me when he left. But when he left I realized how great of a brother he was when he was giving his farewells to everybody who came to see him for a last time. Everyone was crying while I was trying my best to hold it back. I hate crying. But I realized how messed up I could've been today if I didn't have such a great brother. If it wasn't for him, I could seriously be a pussy who listens to emo music and doesn't like sports at all. He's the one that got me into everything that I like today. He's done so much for me and it took me until that moment to realize that. He's an awesome person, and I miss and love him a lot. He can't be here for this holiday but thankfully he will definitely be here for Christmas and everyday I count it down.
Here's to my brother. :toast Love ya man.

[alamo50]

I am thankfull for being blessed to meet all the great peeps in San Antonio who made it possible for me to live my dream.


Oh yeah, I love my girlfriend and I am happy to be alive.

[Barbarian]

Thankful for a healthy 6 month old beautiful daughter that probably hates my guts right now because I just took her to the doctor for shots and to get her ears pierced.
Also for my parents, sister, and her healthy newborn daughter. Shit....I just realized.... Im an uncle now.

[Bruno]

Kori, LJ, Slomo and all the other people who have spend time, energy and money to make Spurstalk a great message board. Thanks :toast

[pawe]

My greencard! Everything would be so hard here without it.

[mookie2001]

no joke ask smegmol

[Joe Schmoogins]

This is a strange thanksgiving for me. I'm currently studying abroad (kind of not really) and will be the first thanksgiving I spend away from any family. I'm also homeless, so I've been fortunate enough to realize just how many little blessings I take for granted on a daily basis. So this thanksgiving, I'm expecially thankful for my family, my health, food, gloves, and showers.

God Bless!

[jaespur21]

im thankful for having an awesome family who has been there for me for this very unusual year. which includes and arrest and other bullshit

[MagnusKrauss]

[AnotherArgie]

For my husband, and for finding him after a long and terrible first marriage; for my two wonderful adult children, and for my 1 1/2 grandchildren. And for beating breast cancer, 10 years ago.

:toast

I toast for that too. And, despite some deeply depressing moments in my life, I'm generally thankful for everything I have right now, even the bad things (could be much worse).

Cheers!

[SequSpur]

Got Damn Foreigners!

[AnotherArgie]

Got Damn Foreigners!

So you've got some foreigners? Good for you. I've got a brazilian girlfriend. Foreigners rock.

[bonesinaz]

I am thankful for my husband and 3 kids. 2 years ago I would never have thought we would have 3 kids.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Um, let's see... I'm grateful for pretty much everything in my life!

I could not imagine a better life than the one I have lived.

Thank you, Universe! :)

[carina_gino20]

for my family and friends back home, as well as the friends I have in school

for getting back on track less than a month after an operation. i'm actually thankful that I can lie on my back now. a month ago it hurt to do it. :lol

And I'm thankful that I am a Spurs fan. :king

pretty much everything really. It's great to be blessed.

[Slydragon]

I am thankful for my family and my daughter and good health for us all.

I am also thankful for the next poster because it means I am not last on this thread. :p:

[MaNuMaNiAc]

I'm thankful that all of you get the honor... nay, the privilege of responding to my posts :smokin

[angel_luv]

Lately I have realized how many blessings I have that I take for granted like a car that almost always runs no problem, two jobs which I like to go to ( many people have none or don't like theirs), and a mom who always wants to know what I am thinking.

I am also grateful for my faith in God, the love of my friends/family, for the website I write for which has been an wonderful creative outlet and fun experience.

I am grateful for McDonalds. Love it. French fries with honey. Yummy!

And of course, I thank God every day for all my favorite foreigners. You know who they are. :)

[Russ]

Ping pong balls!

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

And of course, I thank God every day for all my favorite foreigners. You know who they are. :)

I hope I'm one of them, maybe 9th or 10th on the list... ;) :lmao

[polandprzem]

for all the things that make me happy

I would have to mention my Mom, some few frinds I got, some people that tolerete me, ST (an important part in my life) and bout the rest I don't give a damn.




Yes of course I'm thankful for the spurs who came to my life and changed it and still are!

[Tonto]

I'm very sorry if I upset you with what I said :angel

[JoeChalupa]

My family, health and living in the USA.

[kingsfan]

I really don't celebrate the holiday but I'm thankful we finally got a little rain to ease this drought.

[kingsfan]

Also my Georgia Dawgs so I have 1 team that knows how to win. :spin

[nfg3]

Spurs and Longhorns but mostly my family, friends and the ability to live in this country. Over the years I've taken all of this for granted. The Spurs always being contenders and winning rings regularly as well as my family and friends being there. Having just lost my mom, my sisters both having serious health problems and having a very stressful job has reminded me that our lives are so fragile. Things can change so quickly that it is best to be thankful for and appreciate what you have.

So I've decided to appreciate all I have and to tell those I care for how I feel. I will not put off tomorrow what I can do or say today. For some tomorrow never comes so in the end we have only those we have cared for and loved.

Props to Kori and SpursTalk and all that contribute - even the trolls because we all need a good laugh now and then. :toast

[usckk]

Friends, family, life in general :)

[usckk]

Oh yeah, on a side note: I'm thinking of Timvp of making game-by-game analysis. I know its time consuming, but it is really really helpful for those that can't watch every game. Thanks!

[alamo50]

I am also thankfull for Barbarian´s signature...........who the heck is that dream woman???

[spurschick]

In addition, I'm really thankful that I was able to get my computer working again. This weekend would've really sucked without it.

[smeagol]

I thank there are so many foreigners on this board.

Diversity rocks!

[urunobili]

Health, Family, Friends, The Spurs, Music, Inspiration, This Forum and y'all

[smeagol]

We will probably be coming to Chile and Argentina in February :tu


Will you be in BA for a couple of days?

If you guys are, you need to come and stay in our house. The only day I can't is Friday Feb 15. I have another American family staying at Chez Smeagol.

Besides, if my wife gets to know you guys, it will be easer for me to convince her to go to SA for the playoffs :spin

[ShoogarBear]

I thank there are so many foreigners on this board.

It's the first without my mother who I lost to cancer past december, but I am thankful for my fathers good health, wife, kids, grandchildren, relatives and friends. Most of all I am thankful to had been able to spend my years on earth with the Greatest Woman in the World! My Mother!

[LakeShow]

Happy Thanksgiving to All. Cherish the Day!

[duncan228]

Sorry for your loss Lakeshow1.
Holidays are hard after you lose a loved one, especially the first holidays.
I hope you're surrounded by loved ones and that your day is happy.

[spurs_fan_in_exile]

My wife, my family and in-laws, the Spurs, Spurstalk, League Pass, our pets, and my best friend who just made a safe return from Iraq after his second tour of duty there. Oh, and the good health of all those things.

[smeagol]

no joke ask smegmol
Not true.

I was doing fine without it. But if the government is willing to give it to me without much effort on my part, I'll take it.

Next step, citizenship.

The roaring 20s, plastic straws, and the ordinary things that we don't always recognize, but when we do recognize them, we come to understand that they are the very things that can help us get through the days.
