Happy Birthday David,
Love, Uncle Ted
Jan 09, 2003


David Paul Smith
, age 9, from Altoona, PA loved football. His all-time favorite team was the Steelers and he loved to watch the football players in action.
Best of all, the Steelers had made it to the championship, and they were going to play against the Eagles. The game was going to start in a few minutes! Dave was waiting for Tom, Hank and Curt to join him in watching the game.


The crowd in the stadium sang the National Anthem, then gave a mighty cheer just as the game was about to start. But Dave was getting sleepy.
"I've just got to stay awake for the championship game." thought Dave as he watched the coin toss. But Dave was really tired, and he slowly fell into a deep sleep.


Then the strangest thing happened. As if by magic, Dave suddenly found himself at the football stadium! The Championship was being played right in front of his eyes!
He heard the loudspeaker. "Attention ladies and gentlemen," the announcer called out. "The Steelers just asked if David Paul Smith will join them for this game!"


Dave couldn't believe his luck! The quarterback came up to him and said, "Dave, we need you on the team. If you'll help us out for the rest of the game, we just might be able to win the Championship!"
"I'll do the best I can," Dave said.
The players quickly got Dave into a uniform. Maybe it was a little big, but Dave didn't care. He was actually in a huddle with the Steelers.


Dave joined the Steelers on the line of scrimmage. As he was facing the Eagles, he remembered the quarterback saying to him "I want you to go long and to the right, and then I'm going to pass the ball to you."
"I sure wish Tom, Hank and Curt could see me now," thought Dave to himself excitedly.


Dave ran as hard as he could. The ball seemed to sail through the air forever. Dave caught it and ran as fast as he could. The Eagles tried to tackle him, but he was too fast.
The crowd went wild as Dave scored a touchdown.


Later in the game, the score became tied. The quarterback told Dave that the coach wanted to see him.
"Dave, we all know you can catch and run," the coach said. "But if you can kick a field goal, we can win the game."
"I'll try," Dave said with a big smile.


The players ran back out the field. The crowd grew silent.
The ball was snapped. Dave kicked that ball with all his strength. It flew through the air and sailed right over the goal post! Dave had scored the winning points! The Steelers had won the game!
It was like a dream! The other players hoisted Dave above their shoulders and marched him around the football field. Dave heard the loudspeaker announce, "David Paul Smith has been chosen the Most Valuable Player today."
The crowd started cheering, " Dave, Dave, Dave..."


"Dave, Dave, Dave
. Wake up!" Tom, Hank and Curt called. You must have fallen asleep. The game has already started."
"But I was just about to get my trophy for the Most Valuable Player award," Dave murmured as he rubbed the sleep out of his eyes.
"You'll always be the most valuable player around here," Tom, Hank and Curt replied. "Now let's make some popcorn and watch the game!"
