Kurt And Brenda Warner: Good People
By Wyatt Earp | December 23, 2009
Code Monkey sent me this story. I don’t know if she knew that I was already a Warner fan or not, but this would have converted me.
MESA – Just in time for the holidays, Arizona Cardinal Kurt Warner and his wife helped a young single mom move into her dream home. Angela Perez opened the door to her new home in Mesa in amazement Tuesday. Every room is decorated.
The single mom just bought the house — but didn’t expect to find new furniture inside.
The Warners not only put up a Christmas tree and decorated it for Angela and her son Joshua, they also put presents underneath it. Kurt and Brenda Warner thought of every detail.
That’s awesome.
Perez put herself through school, saved money every month for a house, all while raising her son. This home is important to her.
“It’s something of my own. When I am making that mortgage payment that’s an investment into myself, not rent,” says Perez.
Perez had just enough money to buy the house, but not enough to fill it with furniture — that’s why the Warners picked her.
Considering Warner was bagging groceries before he hit superstardom, he is none of the more grounded athletes in a league identified and sometimes dominated by thugs.
Warner already has the stats to justify talk of his Hall of Fame chances, but things like these make him and his wife Hall of Fame people.

Warner isn’t just grounded because of the fact that he bagged groceries before he started his career as a football player. He is grounded because he has a solid relationship with Jesus Christ. He doesn’t just talk the walk. He walks the walk.

It’s nice to hear a story about a public figure who isn’t a loon , a thief or a philanderer! (Or in the case of Congress, all three!)

Deanna – Amen to that. No pun intended.
Mrs. Crankipants – Did it burst out of your chest like that scene in “Alien?” That would be awesome!
Teetop – Absolutely 100% correct.
Proof – You forgot “stupid” for Congress.

YES!
And it blew out my implants!
Now my boobs look like those burlap sacks that you slide on at a carnival. I’m billing you.

Warner is a solid human being. And his faith is at the forefront. He’s a tribute to the NFL, some of the guys in the league could learn a lot from him.
