While hustling my assignment to my next flight I look up and who do I see in front of me? Ndamukong Suh. First off he's probably the biggest human I've ever stood next to.

I was in a rush so I didn't have time to speak much but when I told him I was a fins fan he acted with nothing but class and we took a quick pick. I tried to upload it but can't get it to work. (on Twitter @mnphinfan)

I asked what he thought of Gase real quick and said after meeting him he came away impressed.

That's all I had time for as now it's of to SLC.

Awesome, man. Must go to the top of your list of celebs for you.

You are better than mine. I got Tom Donahoe and M.L. Carr.

It's up there but I've met Donnie Baseball and Dan the Man who were my childhood idols. They are the tops.

I sent the pic to my wife and she said my 7 year old son is ****ting bricks.
 
Is he with Michael Crabtree? :lol:

That is cool, he seems like he is a friendly guy. off the field.
 
Nice chance meeting.

You let him off easy with the Gase question, typical reply. I would have went straight into Philbin followed by his preference of old or new logo.

Yeah as I was rushing down the tarmac I thought ****, I should have asked him about Miko and if her statements hurt the locker room at all.

That's awesome man!
 
Don Mattingly and Dan Marino......my two favorite players! I listened to every Yankee game on the radio growing up in Miami and just loved Mattingly!
 
Awesome dude!!! It would be so hard to not just pester them with questions. You know they'd hate that ****
 
Thx for sharing MN Jesse. Ndamukong is an intelligent guy who takes his profession seriously. Delighted to hear that he was a good guy in showing you some respect. Pity that you didn't get more time with him.
 
Outstanding MN, thanks for sharing! Your son's reaction is fantastic, you are raising him right.

Congrats! Great story and thanks for sharing. I can't say I'm surprised that he was classy with you.....he strikes me as a true pro.
 
coolest person i met was OJ Simpson and also Randy Smith of the braves in the early 70's at a block party in Williamsville, NY. They were down to earth and happy to give autographs. I think Mcadoo and Ernie D. was also there.
 
Great story, MN. Nice to hear that he treated you well.

People outside the Dolphins like to dog on Suh but everything you hear about him is he's a bright guy. Heck, Warren Buffett vouches for him. You don't see that every day.
