At the end of Bob Schieffer's CBS News broadcast he had a segment that they put in at the last minute..with the video to match.

It was about a Special Ed student, a kid named Jason McElway, with autism, who is the "Team Manager" of a high school basketball team, Grace Avena High School in Rochester, New York.
He is kinda their mascot, because he has so much heart in helping the team out with water, towels, and just a great attitude.
Well they were going to play their last game of the year, so the Coach decided to let Jason "dress out" with the team as a thank-you to Jason for his great spirit.
In the last 4 minutes of the game the coach called Jason in to play. He thought that would be okay as a tribute to Jason's help over the season.
Jason threw an airball his first try, but the crowd applauded anyway.
Well the damndest thing happened. Jason went on to score 6 3-pointers...in a row to end the game.
I'll bet somebody makes a movie about that one.
