Article: If you love triumph over tragedy

Video:Jake taking it to the house

Read the article then watch the video. I know this has been all over sports TV and radio but I am sure that many here have not heard this story yet. It's a good one.


The video is from here if my link doesn't work.

That is just sugary sweet. I wish I went to a high school where stuff like that happened.

great story, very inspirational. It's nice to know that there are still places in America where sportsmanship is not just a word.

Definitely. I don't think Steve Spurrier would have let that happen.

With a lump in his throat and a tear in his eye HappyPuppy salutes the coaches, the players and the refs. Sportsmanship and compassion are alive and well in America.

A rare case of sportsmanship. I wouldn't go about saying that sportsmanship is prospering in America just yet.

hehe seriously


well, unrelated..but i read this in "chicken soup for the soul" or was it teenage soul?..forgot which....but this kid wasn't that great in football, but was on the roster...and then his father passed away...a week later he begged his coach for him the start the next game....eventually the coach gives in and lets the kid start...and the kid goes insane and scores like mad and rushes many yards.....the coach was shocked and asked him how'd he do that...the kid replied "my father passed away a week ago....and he was blind....since he's in heaven, he can now see me play football"
