Texans sign WR Danny Ammendola

Many years ago I adopted a dog from the SPCA. I was to be his third family and on that day an obscure wide receiver named Danny Amendola signed with his third NFL team the Rams after offseason work with the Cowboys and Eagles previously. Looks like it was September 22nd, 2009 signed off the Eagles practice squad. Danny Amendola (it was always first name last name, his nick name was Dola and Danny Dog) was a great boy. Super obedient and deeply special dog who was with me through a lot of the rougher parts of my life, he lived until December 2016. I remember watching that Superbowl 28-3, but Danny Amendola ended that night champion. Happy to see the long shot player is still around the NFL, but to me he'll always be the perfect dog.

This post made his signing with the Texans worth it. Beautiful story.

I drew inspiration from Dola myself, hence the username.
