Perhaps It Could Have Worked For Dexter Manley

Bloody sock? Please. Curt Schilling, who apparently has lost the magical power of hosery doused with bodily fluid, has nothing on little Willie McQueen, a seventh grader from Flint, Mich. The scrappy kid lost his legs in a train accident when he was three years old, is not letting life as an amputee keep him from the gridiron. A defensive tackle for his seventh-grade team, McQueen uses his "incredible upper body strength" -- which is important, considering it's the only part of the body he has -- to bring down ballcarriers despite his three-foot height. Heartwarming? Sure. But where does he inject the steroids?
