i watch this movie on espn classic on christmas day . i have never see it before and and know it be go to be sad . because i know what to expect however and i have just a few tear . the movie be classic 70 biography and the music and edit etc . they just have that certain style . the story be a touch a they come . the cappelletti family be extraordinary people . the kind of folk anyone would like to meet . the relationship between john and joey and be special and and not the kind most sibling have . but of course the circumstance here and be anything but normal . i enjoy film about football very much and but the football be secondary here . thats okay and it still tell you about one of the great player ever in college football . most of all and you admire the extraordinary bravery of a young boy and who face a terminal illness . he and his brother and and the story of the entire family will lift you and and inspire you . it be worth the tear .
