At my high school we had our own radio. Rashad was our equipment manager and everyone one of us on the team looked out for him. He was always the first one to the field house and one of the last to leave. Came with us on the team bus to every single away game. There was no bigger a fan of our team than him. He passed away shortly after we all graduated. Miss that dude. Always had the biggest smile on his face and high fives and helmet pats for everyone. When my depression kicks in every now and then, I just think about how much he helped us succeed and it makes me feel a little better. RIP Rashad, you were 1 of a kind.
I played football for Langston University and we had a man who used to play in the marching band back in the 60's but was slipped cocaine laced with something that mentally disabled him. The university took full responsibility and gave him his own apartment on campus he can take any class he wants free food and a stipend, and play with the band during practice and games. I don't think anyone messed with him. He was a great guy.
@@danieladesegun1517 the movie is called radio and just so you know the movie is based on a real story he died at the age of 73 and yes he loved his radio's
We had a big black boy just like radio at my school named shaquille he was in high school from like 2011-2017 I remember him being in high school when my sister had graduated and then he was still there til the year after I graduated. They had him his as the water boy of the football team, and he'd show up for all the sports he liked which included basketball and baseball. I was always confused how he stayed in high school so long but they gave him menial task like cleaning and helping the sports teams and apparently they even paid him for cleaning. Eventually he got to be like 25 and got to old to continue being in the school and I don't know what ever happened to him he is still at games but I never see him out town anymore I feel sorry for him not being able to stay in high school forever, because he always led the way for the other kids in special education and they all looked up to shaquille literally and figuratively. He was like 6,6 280 pounds but an extremely gentle person.
What a lovely story, I’m crying tears of joy after watching this, stories like this give me faith in humanity. There’s good and bad people out there regardless of race, age or gender. And radio and coach are the definition of good people. Rip to both of them xx
A heart of Gold is what this beautiful souled man with a mental condition, showing us that love is bigger than all things..This man is the real teacher❤ It makes me cry out my soul
This is a movie I’m glad I watched at a young age. It’s so easy to treat people that are different badly and be mean to them but I remember watching this movie as a little kid and just feeling sorry for all the bad things that happen to radio but how he keeps staying positive and how everyone eventually grew to love him. I worry that we forget these kinds of things now a days.
This movie got me crying for 15:33 minutes straight I'm not lying. I was crying the entire show I couldn't even see some of the parts, there's even tears on my chin and phone😭
I've seen this Movie several times and still cry 😭😭😭... Especially I one specific part.. watch it... It's an excellent movie... And make sure you have a funny movie after... Boat Trip
i watched this when i was 9 by accident when i had no cable but the movie was already half way over but i still watched the rest of it now im 13 and i get to see the other half of the movie
I wept when he was crying bc his mother. A mothers love is is different bc no matter who is against you or if you are right or wrong your mom will always love you.😢‼️❤️
Wow hearts are communicating believe me the coach's heart was entangled with radio's ❤ it's happen sometimes and when it does, don't resist assist you'll do yourself a favour
Maybe as humans we should all take note never give up on anyone life is for the living no matter who you are I thank the coach for what he saw a person with a problem who needed help in life may they both Rest in peace 🕊️
I can’t believe I never seen this movie before but the narrator pretty much explained the entire movie which It looked like it was awesome from beginning to end.
F*ck man ... me too. The hell is up with this white savior movie. Got me crying like this for a movie summary. Haven't cried in years. SMH. It must've been the music and robotic voice.
