Defensive player refuses to allow child with a disability score a touchdown, tackles him instead (Video)
You see videos all the time of teams making a player's dream come true. Be it a member of the team's staff or a fan, working to help make players with a disability or illness dream's come true is usually a heartwarming story.
Unfortunately this isn't one of those stories. In the below video a high school team made arrangements for a disabled student to dress with the team and score a touchdown. A member of the other team didn't get the memo or didn't care and decided to shut the play down.
From the clip you can clearly hear the disappointment and anger in the voices of the family in attendance. Hopefully the player eventually got his touchdown, because this story deserves a happy ending.
