Michael's story is so uplifting, I can see how some might find it hard to believe. I began to follow Michael's career after I read a 2006 article about him in the New York Times. I was captured by the feeling of hope Michael's story gave me, and I have been rooting for him and his adoptive family ever since. Back then people were skeptical about the Tuohy's motives. All I could see was people who had the kindness and the means were helping Michael help himself. Not every act like this has enough drama to make a movie out of, but it's nice that this one does. Another aspect of Michael's story that I am open to is how sports can transcend/remove certain barriers/obstacles between people. That is an athlete thing that many won't understand. I hope the movie does Michael's biography justice.
