Proof that Sportsmanship Still Exists

I saw this article on the Yahoo! homepage and just couldn't resist reading it. These teams are truly groups of individuals that still know what sportsmanship is and how to show it. The story and video most definitely made me cry and put me in a fantastic mood. It's about a student on a football team that scored a 51 yard TD in a Varsity football game last week. Normally, it wouldn't be all that impressive, but Ike Ditzenberger has Down Syndrome. His and the opposing team made it possible for Ike to score, probably making last Friday night one of the best of his life thus far. It's moments like these that truly make me proud to be an American and it gives me hope that maybe, just maybe...sportsmanship does still exist in this world.

I hope the videos work...

this first one is the one Ike scored last year in a Junior Varsity game.



this next one is the one he scored on Friday night.

Soooooo....school's started up again lol

I'm not sure if I'm excited or what, but my classes are pretty good so that helps out. I'm taking 13 credit hours instead of the 16 I was gonna take.

I'm planning on moving out as well, but I NEED to get a job first. Hopefully I can find one at the student employment fair this Thursday... [cross your fingers for me!] haha

Ok...so remember the first picture of sunburn I put on here a few weeks ago?? Well, I did it again! :(

Only difference this time?? it's my face and neck.

As you look at the following photo...please resist the urges you have of calling me a tomato and singing the veggie tales song (unlike my sister...)
