Thanksgiving for the BayHawks

Happy Thanksgiving from Blog Talk BayHawk!

The roster was set yesterday, and the season begins tomorrow. Today, I've got a guest post over at ErieBlogs.com listing reasons for the new bunch of BayHawks to be thankful this holiday season.

Here's a sampling:

Your three returning players (Jarvis Gunter, Ivan Harris, and Jackie, Manuel) know what’s coming. As for the newcomers, just give it a few weeks. You may never fully warm up to the idea of Erie winters (at age 25, I still haven’t), but once you endure December’s fifth blizzard number, you should develop a sort of reluctant acceptance of the way it is around here. Sure, the games are played indoors, but that doesn’t mean you can’t reap the benefits of Erie’s winter climate. Surviving an Erie winter is badge of honor that we natives take for granted. So don’t fight it; embrace it. And when your opponents fly in from Rio Grande Valley, Texas, and Bakersfield, California, take joy in whatever fun twists Mother Nature throws their way.

Enjoy the post and enjoy the holiday!
