A Great Story...

My nephew Spanky who plays freshman football for my old high school, did an amazing thing. When practices started in August, he was the only kid who talked to another player on his team that has extremely bowed legs. This kid came out for the football team and is always ready to go at practice he is on time and dressed everyday, even though he is not on a first string offense or defense. Spanky went to a local Lutheran school and so did this other kid, so he did know him before going into school. Some of the other football players constantly picked on this kid until Spanky told them all to shut up and leave him alone, that he is there everyday and ready to practice. Yes, my 15 year old nephew stood up to his entire football team in defense of another player. We only found out because one of my other nephews plays on the team as well and he told his mom what Spanky did at practice and so the story was told to Spanky's mom. She asked him why he did it and he simply said he was sick of it so he told them to shut up! He is such a good kid and this truly proves it, we are all so proud of what he did!
