it is pretty cool to see the guy go from "riding the short bus" to getting hoisted and riding on his teammates shoulders. Big nod to the coach for even giving him the chance.

lol...this happened a long time before this was posted..... I was in a good mood after seeing this as well.


A couple things annoy me about this. They want to turn it into a movie, which to me basically sounds like a buncha money hungry bastards hearing about this story and wanting to turn a profit from it.

and...the fact that this is in contension with Kobe Byrant's 81 point game for like "best sports performance" of the year. Yes this was inspirational...and yes my heart goes out to the kid.....but come on now.

Well, on a retarded (no offense) ratio, maybe it equals or suprasses Kobe's 81..!
