Rush Talking Football!!!
Too bad his Steelers didn't make it.
Or, my Packers {;~( I knew you guys were better, I was hoping for Favre's 5 touchdown passes to be to the guys in green and gold. The only chance we really had was to 'trade' touchdowns, not give away 4.
LOL!!!

He had an off day. It happens. Even Kurt throws an interception on occasion.
It sure was a fun game to watch though.
Nothing to do with that sideline injury.
Depends on whether or not you want to distract him {;~)
I hope his team wins. He has cheered them on for years.Thanks so much my friend.
Subject: READ BEFORE SUNDAY
A good friend sent me this story. It is very relevant, as you will discover at the end. Take time to read it before Sunday--it is worth your time
In a supermarket, Kurtis the stock boy, was busily working when a new voice came over the loud speaker asking for a carry out at check register 4. Kurtis was almost finished, and wanted to get some fresh air, and decided to answer the call. As he approached the check-out stand a distant smile caught his eye, the new check-out girl was beautiful. She was an older woman (maybe 26, and he was only 22) and he fell in love.
Later that day, after his shift was over, he waited by the punch clock to find out her name. She came into the break room, smiled softly at him, took her card and punched out, then left. He looked at her card, BRENDA. He walked out only to see her start walking up the road.
Next day, he waited outside as she left the supermarket, and offered her a ride home. He looked harmless enough, and she accepted. When he dropped her off, he asked if maybe he could see her again, outside of work. She simply said it wasn't possible. He pressed and she explained she had two children and she couldn't afford a baby-sitter, so he offered to pay for the baby-sitter.
Reluctantly she accepted his offer for a date for the following Saturday. That Saturday night he arrived at her door only to have her tell him that she was unable to go with him. The baby-sitter had called and canceled. To which Kurtis simply said, "Well, let's take the kids with us."
She tried to explain that taking the children was not an option, but again not taking no for an answer, he pressed. Finally Brenda, brought him inside to meet her children. She had an older daughter who was just as cute as a bug, Kurtis thought, then Brenda brought out her son, in a wheelchair. He was born a paraplegic with Down Syndrome. Kurtis asked Brenda, "I still don't understand why the kids can't come with us?" Brenda was amazed. Most men would run away from a woman with two kids, especially if one had disabilities just like her first husband and father of her children did.
That evening Kurtis and Brenda loaded up the kids, went to dinner and the movies. When her son needed anything Kurtis would take care of him. When he needed to use the restroom, he picked him up out of his chair, took him, brought him back. The kids loved Kurtis. At the end of the evening, Brenda knew this was the man she was going to marry and spend the rest of her life with.
A year later, they were married and Kurtis adopted both of her children. Since then they have added two more kids.
So what happened to the stock boy and check-out girl? Well, Mr. & Mrs. Kurt Warner now live in St. Louis, where he is employed by the St. Louis Rams and plays quarterback.
This coming Sunday Kurt will quarterback the Rams in Super Bowl XXXVI.
Great story, isn't it?
Have a great day!
GO RAMS!!!!
