Derrick Nnadi was so excited that the Kansas City Chiefs won the Super Bowl yesterday that he made confetti angels on the field. Turns out, he is also an angel when he is standing on all two paws.

After the game, the Defensive Tackle made a phone call that will change hundreds of lives. He called up the KC Pet Project and made them an offer they could not refuse. The animal shelter wrote, “KC WINS! We are so excited to announce that the Kansas City Chiefs defensive tackle, Derrick Nnadi is choosing to celebrate the Super Bowl win by paying for the adoptions of all the adoptable dogs currently at KC Pet Project!

We have had an amazing, season-long, partnership with Derrick and he couldn’t have thought of a better ending.”

Since the news of his generosity broke, the no-kill shelter say, “44 pets left the shelter today (38 dogs and 6 cats) with new families and up to 30 more are going home tomorrow! Of the 109 dogs that qualified for the sponsorship, around 40-50 of those dogs will still be available after tomorrow, which is incredible.” Beyond incredible and at least one of those best friends better be named after their benefactor.

If you want to adopt (never shop) one of the remaining pups, then you can see them here.

The 23-year-old already has the Derrick Nnadi Foundation that not only helps pets, but also children in both Kansas City, Missouri and his hometown Virginia Beach, Virgina. Like I said, he is an angel. Even if he did got to Florida State. Nnadi is one to watch and I cannot wait to see what else he does on and off of the field.

DJ Qualls comes out as gay
January 13th, 2020 under Admirable People. [ Comments: none ]


DJ Qualls has played the stud in several movies, and now the actor has a confession to make. He told his followers on Friday, “It is 11:20pm. I just came out on stage at a @jimjefferie show in San Diego. Yep, I’m gay. Been gay this whole time. Tired of worrying about what people would think of me. Tired of worrying about what it would do to my career.”

He can still play the man who gets all the girls or boys. Who cares anymore? As long as he is happy, what else matters?

If some production does not want you because you are gay, then you did not want them in the first place.

Sia was Santa Claus on Thanksgiving!
November 29th, 2019 under Admirable People. [ Comments: none ]


Christmas came early yesterday in Palm Springs thanks to Sia. The singer went to a Walmart and a T.J. Maxx there and paid for several people’s bills. Just like when she wears a wig during her performances, she attempted to do it anonymously. Sia told everyone she was a lottery winner and was paying it forward. They believed her until Adri Buckles revealed who the Thanksgiving giver is.

Sia is as beautiful as her music. She made several people remember what Thanksgiving is all about. Being thankful and helping others.

An a capella band break out into song at Chick-fil-A!
July 16th, 2019 under Admirable People. [ Comments: none ]


Several members of an a capella group was in Nashville training at the Acappella Company’s Worship Leader Institute and they were hungry. Therefore, they went to the Chick-fil-A in Rivergate and decided to sing for their meal. The men did such a great with Lean on Me that even people, who were not in the group, sang along.

Who doesn’t know the Bill Withers’ tune? It is so positive, it is hard not to sing along with a smile on your face. As big as all of the cows who are happy more people are choosing to eat at the chicken joint instead of the other fast food ones.

Seriously though, this is such a beautiful thing. I wish this would happen at more restaurants. Maybe instead of hearing about the brawls that happen at them, we can hear about people being brought together because of a song. Look at this video, men, women, black, white, costumers and workers all joined together as one voice. This is what we need more of. Instead of the extremists in DC trying to divide us.

Case in point, when I first saw this video, the person wrote that this happened in a Nashville Chick-fil-A, I thought another racist video. Instead, I saw that unite people and is pure joy! Let’s see more of this and less of the former.

Thank you Jake Jones for sharing.

Gillette does an ad for a transgender boy’s first shave
May 27th, 2019 under Admirable People. [ Comments: none ]


In a time when several members of our government are trying to silence transgender people, Gillette is giving a them a public forum.

Samson Bonkeabantu Brown recently transitioned and he is finally ready for his shave. A rite of passage that has been passed down between a father and his son for many centuries and Samson’s story is no different. His father showed him how to do it and Gillette caught that big milestone.

When he was done we got to see his close shave, but it as not as close as the relationship the two men have. Nothing can be closer than the love of a father who is proud of son no matter what.

Brown wrote this about his story, “I shot this ad for Gillette and wanted to include my father, who has been one of my greatest supporters throughout my transition, encouraging me to be confident and live authentically as my best self.

“With the help of Gillette, I was able to share an important milestone in every man’s life with my father.

“This moment overwhelmed me during filming and again today seeing the ad since it’s been launched. I’m keenly aware of how blessed I am to be able to exist in this world being supported by my family in ways that all too often many of my trans brothers, sisters, and siblings who exist outside the binary are not always as fortunate.”

“I am confident that this ad will encourage many of my trans siblings and fill them with the knowledge that our existence in this world can be filled with the love and support we deserve.”

Hopefully, by normalizing a special moment that most dads share with their sons, haters will realize transgender people are just like them. We are all human and should love each other for who we are as a person. Nothing else matters at the end of life.
