Quote:I"m kinda confused as to why you don't think this is an awesome accomplishment.  You know how hard it was to even get picked up on a team for him and you're acting like it was a small accomplishment.  There's people who have all of their senses in tact and still don't' make the team.  Furthermore the fact that he's a fullback is even more so an accomplishment. It's not like you're on defense and just watch the ball get snapped as your que, He's behind the Qb and they can't give any ques, so if something is blocking his view if he's not instantly off the ball he's already behind a step.  I have no restrictions but I think it's a D bag move to say that it isn't special or try to demean it in any way.  Think about all of the children and teenagers that are trying that have his same circumstances.  This now gives them living proof that if they work hard and stick with it they can accomplish their dream if it's to play a professional sport.

Hard work and dedication will get just about achieve whatever anyone is working for. To be a professional football player you need to work hard and keep at it no matter what. Doesn't matter wether your deaf or not. It can happen and this man proved it. You said it yourself. You want to label me a d bag. I'm sorry you feel that way. I just feel anyone can accomplish their dreams.
