I am thinking a running back with a properly designed wheelchair on a regular team could be quite effective. (^;

I use a wheelchair now, but I’ve walked with a limp all my life. We with some form of disabil;ity want to play sports and many have. We know sports are for the fitter people, in competition sports. But we might surprise smartasses like you ... I used my putter for a cane back when I won my club championship in Golf (late eighties). Played doubles on a couple of tennis teams in my younger days.

No, think outside the box, man! B-) Exoskeletons! BTW, I think General Electric designed one in the late 1960's IIRC. It was posted here not too long ago at: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/2978520/posts

Just think of a running anything with a wheelchair on a track team. He or she could rack up a lot of trophies.

One effect of this regulation will undoubtedly be even more kids being declared disabled than have been since parents started getting paid for the diagnosis.
