If any of you ever have the opportunity to volunteer for an organization/non-profit that helps children with disablities and/or illness I encourage you to do so.  I promise you that it will affect/change you as much as it does them.  The smallest thing in our eyes can be the biggest thing in theirs; just a phone call in this case.  

 

This past weekend one of my wife's 1st grade students invited her to his t-ball game as part of his league's Teacher Appreciation Weekend.  What we didn't know until we showed up Saturday morning is this league helped those with disablities (some severe).  Although I was just a spectator it hit me right in the feels to see kids in wheelchairs grin from ear to ear to "run" to first base. Small things are big things.

 

Great story.

so...to summarize....big bird killed a 5 year old boy just because he called him friend?

 

 

I couldn't imagine and wouldn't wish bad health of a child on anyone....been extremely blessed to have two healthy kids and pray they stay that way

      We looked like a competent NFL team PIE thread

      By Prowler2k18 · Posted

      We could easily pick apart yesterday’s game: dropped passes, blown coverages, bad tackling and red zone issues to name a few. But it was clear that this wasn’t the same team from earlier in the season. They fought back and hung with the champs until the end. That’s what I was excited to see and it gives me hope that we’re on the right track.

      Bryce developing before our eyes

      By Pejorative Miscreant · Posted

      I think BY played well today and exceeded expectations. I will temper future expectations as he has to string together many games of consistent quality. One game doesn’t convince me that he is a franchise QB or even a guy you want to stick with for another season. One game doesn’t erase all the negative play and limitations from the past couple of years. I hope he balls out and continues to get better but for me the verdict is still out   That said, I think he gave the team and fans hope yesterday which is a lot more than what we had when we woke up Sunday morning.

      Bryce Young - Good and Bad, what say you?

      By Ricky Prickles · Posted

      He was vastly improved today and we need to see more of Bryce the rest of the season to continue evaluate him in order to decide what the heck to do with him at the end of the season. He must play at least like this and improve more from here the rest of the season in order for me to keep him. No more 123 yard passing games and want to see at least this output weekly from him. If this is Bruce improving slowly over time then Canales is even better with developing QB's than I thought he was but still too early to tell and we need to see him the rest of the way as he has at very least earned back the starting gig moving forward.
