There are still a lot of good kids in this country with moral and integrity even though TV tends to show us the opposite

I never get tired of seeing stories like this. Athletics at it's best and human nature at it's finest! I'd hire either fine young man in a heartbeat.

Thanks for sharing Sip!

Now thats sportsmanship!!! Excellent story, thanks for sharing!

 

[pawncop]

What a great story. Maybe there is hope for our friends in the media if they will focus on these wonderful youngsters instead of the morons they tend to glorify.

That segment is usually pretty good. This one has got to be one of my favorites.

Thanks for sharing, that's good for an all day smile. I'm putting some miles on that one.

It's not kids we have to worry about, it's the example the adults around the are setting for them.

Thanks Sip,
That's an 'all day' feel good story! Great that you shared it with us. I reminds me of the old adage that most coaches & the announcers seemed to have forgotten........

"It's not wheather you win or lose that counts, but how you play the game"

I had seen this one as a forwarded message.
Good for the young men, especially the kid who
recognized how much it would mean for the challenged
player to score two points. There are still some good
kids around and i hope my 3 grandkids turn out to be
people of compassion and kindness.
I have hope for the future as well.

You only hear

Normally, you only hear about the bad things kids do. We have some very good kids among us and we hardly recognize it.

Thanks, sip. Got me feeling all warm and fuzzy, with
attendant vision problems.
Those folks are more of the same as the ones going
tp Iraq and Afghanistan. The heart of our country is still
healthy!
