Met Joe Theismann in Ft. Lauderdale airport today

[Paintrain]

So I'm at the Jet Blue gate in Ft. Lauderdale about to fly to DC for an interview and who comes around the corner but Joey T. I sat back for a couple minutes because I was on a conference call and I try to respect athlete's space in public.

Once I got off the phone someone had already started chatting him up so I just introduced myself, shook his hand and told him I was a fan. I had a football magazine in my bag that he signed. I know, cheesy to ask for an autograph but it was spur of the moment and if I didn't have a football magazine I wouldn't have asked.

He said that Dan is gonna be pissed that all of the mags are picking the team 4th but he thinks we're going to be right there with Philly and NYG, our defense will be top 3, our secondary will have a great year and JC is going to have a Pro Bowl season. I told him it was nice to meet him and his lady friend. I ended up sitting right across from him on the flight but I left him alone for the duration.

Pretty cool way to spice up an otherwise regular day.
