Ruining it! Let everyone take it the way they want, you take it the way you want. It is done. Not everyone can be satisfied. If he went back and changed it for the sake of satisfying everyone he will have taken away from the initial act itself. Conclude for yourself what the moral is and leave it alone. You are causing a great injustice, pulling the point of interest away from the girls and what they did and what they accomplished in the hearts of so many that have heard their story. who cares about the punchline… you are all taking away from the story.

I don't think there is really a need to vote on this. It is what it is. I have to ask anyone, did you ever promise yourself you would accomplish something in your life time? Goals? Maybe Sarah promised herself to get a home run before she graduated, and this was it. Yeah, she may have lost her home run on a technicality, but she didn't, because of kind people, who looked at "the bigger picture". Michaels on May 5th stated, " There will always be challenges in life to keep you from your goal." This maybe true, but to TRY everyday so you can look yourself in the mirror, to know that you have NO REGRETS, makes life complete. I don't know that Sarah will EXAMINE her self and her inadequecies. It was an accident, that you can't take back. And as far as her thinking someone will always be around to pick her up is off the mark. Mallory and friend carrying her taught her a life lesson, and she may, from this experience, repay the favor to someone else in need. And as far as stumbling and having people carry you, and expect someone to carry you all of the time is not always true either. Should't we be thankful that somedays there are people like Mallory that will pick you up and help carry the load, the burden or the pain? We're all in this world together. I teach my kids to be tough (they are in football) but always to give other people grace when the time is appropriate. Sports is competitive, and so is life, be we don't have to be rude, ignorant, unfeeling people about it either. I teach them to get back up, and dust themselves off, and life isn't always fair. There is a golden rule, treat others the way you want to be treated. another thing is, the evil people that do things for their own gain, I don't think watched the video and had a warm fuzzy feeling about it, let alone vote about it. Im not trying to preach, but I do remember somoeone a LONG time ago, carrying a cross on his back, and fell and stumbled, and someone helped him up and helped him carry the cross to his death. I think even Christ was greatful that someone helped him with his burden. Kudos to Mallory who was unselfish and kind to let a girl reach her goal. I am proud of her!Isn't it nice to have people like Mallory who do go the extra mile and think of others? Life would be awful lonely to go through it alone with no one to lean on, or carry you through rough times. Even on a baseball field you can show your grace and caring, AND SPORTSMANSHIP! And by the way........no one asked or updated.........Is Sarah OK? Is her injury ging to give her problems permanently or will she heal nicely?

Coach and team that tried to decide how to win jerks asking for deserved lawsuit, team that carried her around true winners. First off thought video was great.

Ideally, we feel good when we have done good. People in our society who do evil things and feel good about it are not those who society recognizes as the "norm." Despite the fact that Mallory's team "lost" the game, Mallory and her teammates WERE winners, because, as the old adage goes, "It's not whether you win or lose, but HOW you played the game." Everyone on the field AND in the stands won that day because of Mallory's thoughtfulness, graciousness, and certainty of who she is and what she's about. No follower, this girl!

I believe that if you fell good at what you do in your day that you do leave the world in a better way. So it isn't being self centered to feel good about doing something good to make yourself feel better while helping someone else. I always feel good after doing something for another person. What those girls did to help the other one feel great and get what she deserved whether they had to make a sacrifice or not was totally awesome!

Get real! While everyone is sitting around the campfire singing cume ba ya and talking about how wonderful humanity is, the people in the world who are out to win "everything", including your freedoms, will leave you wanting for scraps. The world is a harsh place and no amount of wishing otherwise is going to change it. Be prepared or be taken over. Come on people. Get real!

Many times-athletes get hurt and you don't know the extent of the injury for a short while. Waiting those moments to determine what SHE wanted to do seems appropriate to me. How is it that we can't recognize these moments as JUST PLAIN GOOD and not analyze them!! Hats off to all involved in this game. I wish I had been there too!! Thanks for the great video!!
