My son got cut from the baseball team because we couldn't afford the uniform and fees. I was sitting in the car outside the field trying to explain it to him when Coach Thompson knocked on the window. "Heard what happened. Kid's got heart. I got an extra uniform from last season that should fit. And the league fees? Already covered it with the booster club." He ruffled my boy's hair and added, "Practice starts Tuesday. Don't be late." The coach's cleats were caked in red dirt. That man didn't just give my son a uniform — he gave him back his confidence. A youth sports coach in dusty cleats saw a kid who needed a chance and handed him one. Faith in humanity restored. Anonymous
