Extract

The Movie "Rise and Walk" is a dramatic look into the life of a man who loses the use of his legs. It also teaches us to never give up. After he broke his neck he vowed to walk again. He fought until that glorious day that he was once again on his feet.
Dennis Byrd states, "When I play football I feel perfect". He plays the game because he loves it, not because of money. When he first began playing, everybody was giving him a hard time because he was a country boy. He didn't let that slow him down, instead he used it to his advantage. Dennis fought for the position that he earned.
