I'm sitting at the sports bar last night, enjoying trivia and the company of friends.  At our table, enclosed in plastic, is an autographed football.  The sigs are Jimmie Johnson, Troy Aikman, and Emmet Smith.

I thought to myself "I wonder why anyone would want a football signed by a NASCAR driver and two football players".

I really do need help.  Thanks so much, Chandra.

Isn't it Jimmy Johnson?

Isn't it Jimmy Johnson?

It's also Emmitt Smith

I think she has too much of the Otter on her brain

Shit, I'm surrounded by QA geeks.

disnut, you have converted me to a fan of WDW so we're even. hehehe

mmmmkay, so its jimmy johnson.  troy aikman, emmitt smith, we see the connection there.  Cowboys... coach when Cowboys won those Super Bowls with Smith and Aikman? Jimmy Johnson.  Not sure if anybody had already filled disnut8 in already or if they already knew.  I do recognize that some people have NASCAR over the NFL in the brain, but still kinda odd.

[Vengeance]

Yeah, but Jimmie Johnson is such a star in the sport right now that the mind just kind of travels there naturally for NASCAR fans.

Yeah, I know who Jimmy Johnson the football coach is - it's just that the first thing I thought of these days is NASCAR.  Come early September, it'll be NFL as well.  If I had see'd (think DW) that football in December, it wouldn't have been a problem.
