Just a quick note. I'll be going to listen to Joe talk tomorrow morning at the breakfast. I'll be sure to say hi to him on behalf of the warpath!

I'll also get his autograph, but I'm keeping that for myself!:food-smil

Re: Coach Gibbs in Newport News VA, 3/30
 

I went, it was great. There were over a thousand people packed into this church. Joe Gibbs was such a good speaker. He reminds me of my grandad. He had a really good message about life and faith. He really is a down to earth person. It made me be proud to be a Redskin fan. Then, I watched as Gibbs signed hundreds of autographs. He really does walk the walk.

They did, but he stuck around and signed autographs and was as nice as you could imagine. He signed a football and his book for me and when I tried to get out of the way for other people, he stopped me and made sure he shook my hand before I left.

Great speaker also!

Gibbs is a Class Act.
He's taller than he looks on TV too I thought when I first met him.

Glad you had a great time.
