The strangest thing happened tonight...

[Ilovebigcats]

We were hosting our annual Danny's Fantasy Football League Live Draft. We had a house full of people and their kids plus all our kids. Food, noise, smack talk... all kinds of stuff. EagerBeaver was on the phone with Danny making his picks and talking back and forth and updating a blog about our draft....

When a knock was heard at the door. The kids come to tell me, when I went to look I didn't see anyone. Then a few seconds later they told me again. One of the ladies said it was some guy that asked to see Danny. So I rush upstairs to see who it is when I saw that wonderful face! I was so excited I yelled his name right at him!

I ushered him downstairs after offering food and drink or whatever he wanted. I made him stay out of site while Danny guessed who could it possibly be that he would never in a million years guess.... He had no clue. The booming voice came around the corner and said "he has a deep voice." Danny made a strange face. I laughed and said you can't even recognize the voice. He came around the corner and looked at the man in the face and it still didn't register. Danny then guess in a knowing yet unsure voice!

Guess who it was???

I was so excited. Like seeing a long lost friend. I soooooooo wish I had taken a picture! UGH!

I'm going to guess it was someone from Jude2...
...was it Gerald?

Bwa-ha-ha-HA!!!

And so ends "The Devil Went down to Nashville" tour.




I am so glad for the progress FQ and Cats have made coming out of TCOGNC that I had to just drop by and shake their hand and meet them.

I apologize for dropping in so late...but when I saw the yard filled with cars and every light in the house on I was sure I was gonna crash a prayer meeting.

Look what can happen if you give out too much info on the web!!!

WOW! I was on the phone with Chris Brewer and trying to coordinate the draft with 12 teams when Wendy said guess who is at the door. I'm like I have no idea. Even after I saw Gerald I didn't recognize him. I just looked and was like I don't know........Gerald! He grinned and laughed.

In the pics I see this big, towering, did I say big, guy and in his posts I read and hear aggression, anger, big, and sometimes scary BUT in person I found a kind hearted, humble, and gentle guy. He was not near as big as I had pictured either. I was so shocked, honored, and impressed.

Gerald had to get back to Louisville but we invited him to eat with us and hang out. I am so glad you came Gerald. Stop by anytime and I do mean that. Next time you get the craving to come to Nashville just PM me and we will get together. I can let you stay here if you would.

After all these years, words back and forth (some of which were not so pretty) and to find that the man behind the curtain is sorta like the old movie portrays (Wizard of OZ).


Thanks Gerald for making my night
