Well here we go! The nominees for the 2020 Country Music Association Awards is out and I can't wait to see who wins. I think I'm most excited for the Entertainer of the year award. Everyone on that list deserves to win, but I'm rooting for Luke Combs. A lot of people will say he's too young, hasn't been around long enough, blah, blah, blah. But I'm a huge fan, so I say Luke all the way! The awards will air live from Nashville on November 11th on ABC 45
