hoop dreams
I'm as cynical as the next guy (ok, probably more so), but the piece about Hoop Dreams in North Carolina that CBS ran during their pregame coverage made me cry.
"HOOP DREAMS teaches successful life skills through athletics. Through these programs, participants develop life skills such as peer interaction and social skill development, problem solving, independence, self-reliance, conflict resolution, and team building. These skills provide a strong sense of self-worth and serve as a foundation for personal success."
Watching that blind NC State fan taunt the ref, holding up a pair of glasses- that sealed it. AWESOME
