Just a note to everyone, I find it amazing the number of self proclaimed experts that have come online during this NFL post season, many have not posted before, and its so comical of a few jumping on the soapbox beating thier chests. One thing all experienced gamblers realize, no one wins them all, and very few even get more than 57-60% winners.
I seldom post but have done this for many years, made much more on the games than my job, and belonged to this site for 7 seasons, seen many good cappers come and go, as luck happens.
Good Luck to all of you as we proceed to the Superbowl.
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 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 had done. Kurtis was not ordinary - - - he had a different
mindset.
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 wheelchair, took
him and 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 Kurtis the stock boy and Brenda the check-out girl?
Well, Mr. & Mrs. Kurt Warner now live in Arizona , where he is currently
employed as the quarterback of the National Football League Arizona Cardinals
and has his Cardinals playing in the Super Bowl.
Is this a surprise ending...or could you have guessed that he was not an
ordinary person?
It should be noted that he also quarterbacked the Rams in Super Bowl XXXVI.
He has also been the NFL'S Most Valuable Player twice and
the Super Bowl's Most Valuable Player.
This story is not well known outside the Waterloo/Cedar Falls area.
