Just dropping in a post to share a special experience a young man experienced over here in Jacksonville while the USMNT was in for the friendly w/ Scotland. Friday night, there was an open practice w/ the team and his dad (a mate at work) mentioned they were going to the practice after work Friday evening. I have an LD #9 official 2012 jersey that doesn't really fit right, and a lightbulb went off in my head. How about putting young N. into that jersey - how slotted would he be to get an autograph from Landon? I brought the kit in, and let N. know that if he got the signature, the shirt was his.
Here's what I got back from his Dad (along with a picture of young N. with Landon)
Can't tell you how big the smile is on that young man in the photo. We know where Landon's heart for the game has gone. It's in storage at Goodison Park.
C'mon Bill, FFS!!!
