In my day playing football that would have been an insult to the opposing team.
That crossed my mind, but the whole atmosphere as it was portrayed in the story didn't lend itself toward that attitude in my opinion. And, as much as the story was about goodwill toward a team that had bad misfortune, i took it as being as much or more about the boy who stopped himself at the goal line. All the stupid stuff he had done and how he really tried to change himself for the better...and then i had the feeling it really sunk in to him on that day what it all meant. But, i could be wrong.
(for the upcoming movie they should have him faking a stumble and falling to the ground instead of taking a knee)
