Holy crap, 20 points in like 3 minutes. I bet the other coach was like "Yep, didn't see that one coming."

And they only let him in because they were already winning by a handy margin.

One of my boys is autistic. He is in HS and the kids can be really mean. He has a great apptitude for math, science and memory for the smallest of details. The problem is many kids don't think he understands they are picking on him, trust me he does. This is a great story, brought a tear..ok a few tears to my eyes. Thanks.

Sure would be nice if news broadcasts were full of stories like these to the effect that there is such a thing as "good clean" news out there.
