That is one of the most touching stories I have read for sure. Nice read. My prayers and heart goes out to the Ray family.

Thanks Joel for taking time out of this crazy week to remind us that the best parts of these kids we love to watch - aren't always visible on the field. :)

Good luck this week Ray - "Git ya one of these!!" Buddy Hale :D

I didn't realize all this about Ray. I am even more impressed now. The kid has an unbelievable amount of character, and it is paying off for him on the field and will continue to when his playing days are over eventually. Watching him run, and now knowing this about his character, I would think there are some coaches in the college ranks that should be paying attention to Sherard Ray.

This puts things in perspective though, and makes me even prouder to be a fan of these kids.
