Sometimes, life really gives us crappy lemons. Riley Quinn was born without one of his hands, something that would pretty much be a career-ender for any athlete around. Riley however, uses his disability in a way that’ll make you question what that word even means. Riley actually plays many sports, but Football and Baseball are among his favorites. He’s actually quite talented too. I think there could be a chance that we see him in the future of Drafts. Remember, we all get dealt a bad hand every now and then, you just gotta see it through till the end!
I worship a kid like this. He defines the word “courage” because not only is he tough you know for sure along the way he has dealt with a legion of big mouth kids who did not support him.
I wish they would show a segment of him catching footballs. I said to myself, ok he plays football, but that he is a wide receiver where you need to have great hands is a bit mind blowing. Great story!
What is great about this young man is how he just thinks it is no big deal. He talks about it all in such a natural way, but behind his casual attitude is an extremely hard working warrior.
