Good news...tears...

I don't know if you watch ESPN but they had a story on recently about a 10-year old boy dying of a brain tumor. His name was Montana Mazurkiewicz. He was a huge Notre Dame Football fan. His parents contected Notre Dame when they were informed Montana didn't have long to live and requested that a player be sent to visit him on his deathbed.
Notre Dame coach Charlie Weis came to visit. After spending a few hours with Montana Charlie asked him is he could do anything for him. Montana asked is he could call the first play of the next game...Weis hesitated ut said yes ans asked him if he wanted a pass or a run. Montana replied, "A pass to the right". He died several days later a a few days before the game.
On Notre Dames first possession, the found themselves on their own 1 yard line. You NEVER pass on 1st down on your own one. Brady Quinn, the Notre Dame quarterback asked, "What are we going to do?" as he knew the promise Coach Weis had made to the dying child. Coach Weis replied, "We have no choice, we're throwing it to the right." and proceeded to call a very dangerous play...with the entire team faking left, QB Brady Quinn spun to his right and found Tight End Anthony Fasano...who caught the ball cleanly, turned upfield and leaped clean over a defender for a 13 yard gain...
It's hard for me to type this as I think of that child and his family...there is so much beauty in this world and I constantly forget that fact.

Thank you Montana.
Thank you Coach Weis.

Thank you to Benjamin Webber, the ESPN producer responsible for the segment.
