No, some of the players had tears too. I think the kid is handicapped.

I think the boy singing the national anthem had some kind of disease.

I don't know of any ..

Maybe someone else will know ...

More nervous.

I've heard some of the Eagle's players discuss just that topic and say they felt a big reason for losing the last three championship games is because they were nervous. It seems the team is much more relaxed this year.

Pretty rude of the announcers not to tell us who the kid was. They carried him off the field on someone's shoulders. Guess Joe Buck was too busy mentioning that this is the first playoff game featuring two African American QB's....

Thanks, fatima. What a heartfelt rendition - little kid, big voice, big heart.

Can you tell us a little more? I missed whatever they said. Thanks!

From CSM on another thread:

An outgoing 9-year-old, Timmy has been a patient at the Philadelphia Shriners Hospital since he was 18 months old. He was born prematurely at 26 weeks, diagnosed with mild cerebral palsy and retinopathy of prematurity (both retinas were detached). Timmy is no stranger to hospitals, having spent more than four months in intensive care after coming into the world. At birth, he weighed slightly less than two pounds. Today, though, he is a burst of sunshine whenever he returns to the hospital for additional treatment. I believe he's blind as well. Google the name Timmy Kelly and you'll find some sites that talk about him.

And if he doesn't convert, a punt into the wind.
