    Re: Something Encouraging for a Change

    I feel like anyone would have done the same thing.... I mean really, who would honestly try to make the free throws knowing the situation?

    This is kind of like in soccer when a guy gets hurt and they give the ball back to the other team.

    I saw that story on Yahoo. Nice to see there are some coaches out there who understand that it's more important to mold young men and women than win a game.

    Re: Something Encouraging for a Change

    The kids impressed me too.

    I see it sometimes on the soccer field but this was....significant for some reason.

    It's just nice to see people being nice simply because it's the right thing to do, not for gain.
