    Diehard eagles fan... BUT THESE GODAMN ONIONS! It doesn't matter what team you root for... The things these players do for the kids are so heartwarming.... this transcends all rivalries, to grant the wishes of these kids are so important. Thank you Jerry and the dallas cowboys for joining the NFL in honoring those who fight their personal demons.

      Jyd33, mutual love and respect from a life-long diehard Cowboys fan. Some things transcend petty (but fun) rivalries.

    There's absolutely nothing negative you can say about Dak Prescott. On the field, he's proven he has that intangible that so few guys have had. And off the field he's an absolutely role model. A winner on and off the field

      As a Cowboys fan, I can't stand the Eagles but this reminds us that we enjoy a game called football and take for granted someone else may not be able to enjoy it as we do. Cowboy nation joins you and right back at you because we all remember the story about your former LB Connor Barwin and his commitment to inner city parks, etc. Good stuff! JMc from Big D!

      Gary Self ikr im packer so i dont like the cowboys but its because we are basicly rivals but thats on the feild i like the cowboys as people so i hate it when you have fans of other teams talking shit about a nice moment like this

    • @Lunzatis_Palemoon
      @Lunzatis_Palemoon Před 6 lety +2

      Bobby Joned Those are the people who can't separate real life from a game. Those types of people should be ignored.
      It is moments like this that remind us that even though life is tough and unfair, that good people can make a difference and/or brighten someone's day. No matter if they are famous or not.

      @Stephen f250 You realize that football is taken extremely seriously in the south east, right? My point stands. I love football but I still realize that it's just a game. There are too many people who can't or won't.

    As father, this is heart breaking, cried like a baby. Nothing can prepare you for when your child is sick. You just wish you could trade places. You do anything for your child as a parent and to feel so helpless when there is nothing you can do. I'm a Dallas cowboy fan and much respect to that whole organization for making his wish come true. God bless you ray ray hope you beat this and over come.

    A kind gesture by my team Dallas Cowboys. they don't need the spotlight. This wish could have easily put off and forgotten...character is what this about. Making a little one happy for a frozen moment in time and seeing his big smile crystallizes the dignity and empathy the Cowboys have that brings tears to my eyes. Ray Ray, you may not play football anymore but your attitude and perseverance will give strength to others in same situation.
