Much To Be Thankful For

I've decided that a great approach to life is to have at least one thanksgiving moment everyday.

To take the time to be thankful amidst the maddening blur of our crazy lives adds a dimension of sanity and an always needed perspective. I offer this as a way of saying how much I love this holiday. To have a day, actually 4 days to think about how thankful we are, to feel the blessings that surround us, is special. I love that this is a holiday that is so communal - shared with family and friends and knowing that this is a time-out for all, just makes it so much better.

So much to be thankful for. To phenomenal athletes, great coaches and staffs, to fans whose enthusiasm drives us all to do better I say thanks. To the most passionate staffs to be found anywhere both at the team and league levels and to the spirit of partnership and building new dreams. To new frontiers and defining new successes, we are grateful for the challenge. And of course, to the owners of our WNBA teams who have invested on behalf of all of us and give to us all the greatest gift, that of a league that provides so much joy and in the process so much and important good, the biggest thanks goes to you.

Enjoy your turkeys and your holiday....I for one will join my kids and their school in delivering turkeys as it's the best way for me not to act like one.

TO ONE AND ALL ... HAPPY THANKSGIVING and thanks
