Super-Bowl
Steelers & Cardinals play against each other in Super Bowl XLIII "Sunday 6pm ET"
The quarterback who can make the most plays Sunday, probably will lead his team to the championship.
Should be a good game i am rooting for the most humble team.

KURTIS THE STOCK BOY AND BRENDA THE CHECKOUT GIRL
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 enoug h, 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-sitte. 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 d on'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 , wh ere he is currently employed as the quarterback of the National Football League Arizona Cardinals and has his Cardinals in the hunt for a possible Super Bowl victory.
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 NLF's Most Valuable Player twice and the Super Bowl's Most Valuable Player.
AND THE REST OF THE STORY:
Today at church our minister mentioned that when Kurt, his wife and 7 children go out to eat he has one of his children pick out a family eating at the restaurant. Kurt then tells the wait staff he is picking up the tab for that family's dinner anonymously.
He remembers the days he was working nights in the grocery store and feeding his family on food stamps.
Makes it hard not to root for the Cardinals IN THE

superbowl hype
There is always so much hype about the superbowl. The betting the hoopla the bragging.Sometimes theres arguing and fighting over parts of the game by the fans.I like to watch sports but i realize its just a game played by people not superhumans.Some fans make shrines of their favorite teams or players.I think its time to realize that the players are human beings just like you or i , with a special gift.If i were to build a shrine, it would be one for Kurtis Warner. He plays the game to the best of his ability with the help from God. He is very open about his religion. He is a very special person. I admire him a lot. He inspires a lot of people to do better. He is a good role model for aspiring young people.

Re: Super-Bowl
Unbelievable this game changed my life, i have never been apart of something so spiritual in my life. The humble team did not win the game but they won in spirit. I learned so many things my life feels so meaningful. I never realized a football game could have such an impact on my life. Kurt Warner is a great Inspiration to us all, i felt strongly that this game was not just a game, it was a spiritual battle. So many things one can learn from this one game. I do not feel that i will ever be able to see another game like this, even if my team makes it to the superbowl. This game was special, if you felt anything during this game please share. Blessings to you all. Have a great night
