That is an awesome story! Thanks for posting that man.

We had a sort of similar story here about an autistic kid that stuttered extremely bad when he spoke all the time. Making it very difficult to understand him. But when he played goalie for his local hockey team he spoke perfectly fine. They mic'd him for one of his games and it was the first time that his mother and father heard him speak. Awesome.

Great post Majik! fing02.gif

WOW, 20 pts in the last 4 minutes of the game, compare that ot Kobes 80 pts for the whole game not long ago, that kid would walk all over kobe's score if he played like that the whole game.
