    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．

The news that he had survived the cut excited him so much that he rushed to the  nearest phone and called his father．His father shared his excitement and was sent season tickets for all the college games．

It was the end of this last football season．One day John received a telegram and  asked one week off．Nobody knew what happened except the coach．The coach said，“Don't plan to come back to the game on Saturday．”

Saturday arrived，and the game was not going well：When the team was ten points behind，John came back．“Coach，please let me play．I’ve just got to play today,”said John．The coach pretended not to hear him．But John persisted，and finally feeling sorry for the kid，the coach gave in．

Before long everyone could not believe their eyes. John was doing everything to 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.”
