Thanksgiving Special (Interview with my Dad)- redo

Football Is Family is part of the Sports History Network - The Headquarters For Your Favorite Sport's Yesteryear.

EPISODE SUMMARY

I believe that this year (2020) should have taught us a lot of things that will aid us from here on out. Maybe it has taught us to be more patient and understanding. Maybe it has taught us to value the little things in life more. Maybe it has taught us to look back and see how truly blessed we have been.

           But I think that one of the things this year should have taught us is to value the people who are in our lives more than we did before. Hopefully you take this moment to be thankful for your family, and to let them know how you truly feel about them. Remember, we are not promised tomorrow- make sure you are using today to show your love for your family.

           I know this is a podcast about football. But it is also a podcast about family.  Today’s guest is very special to me- my dad, Mark McFarlin. Growing up, he took me to football games, and even took me to the Pro Football Hall of Fame, even though he wasn’t a football fan himself. When I asked him to be a guest of this podcast, he wondered what we are going to talk about since football really isn’t talked about much. I hope you enjoy the interview, and maybe take a chance to think about what makes Thanksgiving special to you.
