Have to disagree with that.

I saw the football story and it was one of the classiest moments in HS sports that I have ever heard about.

What it meant to that disabled kid transcended sports. His mom was in tears, his teammates were thrilled, and the opposing coach was the one who insisted that his team give up their shutout and that kid score a touchdown.

Our worth as human beings was elevated that day.
