...Please give back my scrotum with testicles intact, and stop using them as your personal punching bag!

Thank You

These were all really touching stories. I almost cried. They were so sad.

That's the one I missed. I wish I would have saw it. The Bruschi one was great. The fact that he gave him the game ball, that was amazing.

they're feel good stories they show on sportscenter. they've been showing them all week, i believe. i've only seen one of them but that was enough for me. i've missed the others though, but they seem amazing.

I really love this stuff. Really nice to watch.

It does make me feel less manly, but it's touching.

They take kids with diseases and make their sports wish come true. Like a sickle cell anemia kid gets to spend a day at Eagles minicamp, and a kid who is mentally retarded gets to spend a day with Todd Helton (which is tomorrow's story), and stuff like that.

Those espn things always get to me. i can watch the sappiest movie in the world and be fine, but these kids + dying + athlete = breaks my heart.

i'm guessing you used the wrong spelling of "one" because it had been a while since you have been able to say "eagles won"
