I'm sure most of you guys have cuaght this segment on ESPN in the past. They have started them up again and tonight is one where a little boy gets to meet David Ortiz.
What they do is take someone with a serious illness and basicly make one of their wishes come true by allowing them to meet one of their sports heroes.
Now, ESPN has a tendency to lay on the drama with these segments, but I don't care. They get me every time. You're sitting there watching someone, who in many cases has been given a short period of time to live, and their faces are just filled with so much joy when they get to meet these athletes.
It's really a beautiful thing, and if you haven't seen them, be sure to check them out on Sportscenter.
