I could not figure out how to submit the story so I will do it this way instead. Mods/Admins, feel free to move it if you think it should be somewhere else.

If you watch the video, watch how the camera shakes when the teen scores.

I know exactly what you're talking about. That was the last item on the CBS Evening News with Bob Schieffer on Thursday night. Actually, there was one player who had autism, not the entire team.

I thought I said Team Manager (saying one person). I could be wrong however.

OK, I see what I did wrong. I missed the "r" in the word manager. Maybe the mods/admins can fix that for me. If not, oh well. My bad :oops:

I tried to edit it but I think you've got the maximum amout of characters in the title. You might want to edit it yourself; add an r and change point to pts?

I saw that on the local news, thats unreal, not for only for an auttie/aspie but for anybody to score 20 points in under 3 minutes! 8O


EDIT: I changed the topic to say 3 minutes instead of 4 becuase it was acutally under 3 minutes.
