If This Doesn't Make You Want to Cry Tears of Joy, You Have No Heart

This little girl asked for her daddy to come home from Iraq for Christmas.

She has only seen him for 2 weeks in the past 2 years. Poor little girl. She is so strong and understands her Dad is over in Iraq "helping people", but just for Christmas this year, she wanted her daddy all to herself.

Ill be the first to say I cried at work watching it. Sorry if its a repost, just too damn sweet to not post.

No problem admitting I got a little teary eyed. These hit me a little more now that I have a young son. Amazing story, but we can't overlook what Dock said.

A lot of these guys are selfless, a friend of mine already has 5 Purple Hearts. Several news outlets wanted to do a story on him, some wanted to petition that he's done his share but he wouldn't hear any of it, he just wanted to go do his job.

God Bless all our service men and women, particularly those injured and already called home to Heaven for their sacrifice.

He wasn't a soldier. He is a civilian general contractor making big money to go to Iraq and work. He was choosing to be away from his family for two years.

Don't compare him to a soldier who has no choice.

Humbug

Humbug indeed.

The Armed Forces are 100% volunteer are they not?

No need to crap on this story.

Uh.. the story is not about him. It's about his daughter getting her Christmas wish.

For anyone who was at the Titans game this year, when they did kind of the same thing before the game. I knew it was going to happen, and still cried like a little girl. These stories always hit me hard, and while I'm ecstatic for the little girl, it sucks that there are thousands of other kids just like her.

They volunteer to protect and defend our country while being paid peanuts. Thats pretty damn noble.

This guy saw big money in Iraq and found it more important than being with his family. Why sugar coat it?

    • You and I both know there isn't a coach we could or can still hire that can "fix" Bryce Young. Even at mighty Alabama with one of the best modern coaches in college football history Mac Jones was still a better QB than Bryce Young. Mac Jones.... We already know how you feel about Canales on a personal level so in that regard you wanting him fired is not news. You don't have to disguise it behind this shroud of rabble about not fixing Bryce Young. To his credit he somehow had us competive against the Chiefs and the Eagles on the road with #9. But no coaching staff can overcome their starting QB turning the ball over 4 times. We definitely have developed some of our younger offensive pieces. And as far as Evero goes he has earned criticism and if he's fired so be it but in his defense many of us said in the offseason this defensive roster was a disaster waiting to happen given the resources we spent on the offense while neglecting the defense. That was Dan Morgan's plan. He swung too hard toward offense to salvage the Bryce Young trade. That's on him. We can scream about XL all we want but at least he's actually been on the field for the most part. The Brooks pick was a luxury pick at the time and now it is a Hurney level blunder. Dan Morgan has gotten a lot of early praise here when in reality he's unequivocally deserving of significant criticism. But if you say that some people get up in arms because he's a former Panther. Big whoop. He has just as much to prove this upcoming season as Canales. That's why to me in my own personal opinion I say one more season and then if it's more of the same say goodbye to both.
    • It's a decent vid with compelling reasons for his opinion. But, my thing is is that you simply can't draft McMillan thinking he is a surefire WR1. There are questions. His 40---rightly or wrongly---will play a part. I'd think that his splits (which will speak more to his game translating to the pros in my mind) are more important.  As much as you're trying to sell us that McMillan is a don't-overthink-it-type-of-player, I wouldn't say that's the case. Workouts will play a part in all of this.  At this point, I like the thought of Tetairoa. That's as much as I can give you right now.
