     John，a very thin boy, loved football with all his heart when he was very young．Practice after practice，he eagerly gave everything he had．But being half the size of the other boys，he could only sit on the bench and hardly ever played in games．Even though the son was always on the bench，his father was always standing with cheers and encouraging him．

     When John went to college，he decided to try out for the football team as a “walk-on”．Everyone was sure he could never make the cut，but he did．The coach  thought he could provide the other members with the spirit they needed．

     Before long everyone could not believe their eyes．John was doing everything fight．The opposing team could not stop him．He ran，he passed and blocked like a star．And at last his team won the game．

     After the game，John looked at the coach，with tears in his eyes，and said，“Well， you knew my dad died，but did you know that my dad was blind?''John swallowed hard and forced a smile，“Dad came to all my games，but today was the first time he could see me play, and I wanted to show him that I could do it．”

Then Mrs.Thompson got to know that Teddy was actually a very good boy before the death of his mother. Mrs.Thompson got to know that Teddy was actually a very good boy before the death of his mother.
