That was really cool of them to do that. It's actually really nice when you read a good story about professional athletes.

I agree dude!

They shouldn't be doing this. They should be getting ready for next year.

Yeah I always hate when the media focuses on the negatives things certain players do instead of the many great things many other NFL players do.

I gotta admit this changed my opinion of Desean some

What a great story

Good for that kid and a nice gesture by the Eagles

Great gesture by the Eagles players. And what a turn for this kid, something so great coming out of something so terrible. This isn't a miracle per se, but good things DO happen to people who have to experience terrible things first.

What happened to this kid isn't bullying, it's criminal. Jumping a 13-year old kid for no reasons, possibly just because he's from another country? Those punks need to be tried as adults and put in jail. It's a shame, because they're so young and it's likely they weren't raised well themselves. Then again, sometimes people are bad, no matter their age. I say you can't make excuses for beating a kid up no matter how rough your life is or has been, because in the act of beating this kid, you have to know it's wrong, but they kept going. They're old enough to know (15 to 17). Maybe they'll learn from this, maybe they'll continue down teh same path and end right back up in the hands of the police and system. It's just a shame to see people waste themselves this way.
