Many years ago, when I was a regular league bowler, we had a deaf team in our league. They were cool and were a very good team. I remember them fondly to this day. I love this football team and hope the best for them!

I grew up in the 70’s in Austin Texas across the street from the Texas School for the deaf football field. I watched them play for years. They were never great but if you compared heart to wins and losses, they were incredible.
Good job boys, never new this school existed and I’m just 20 minutes away from this school you have to be proud of them.
Do more of this!!! I needed something good to happen today & seeing this...this was it!!!
This is a rare occasion when CNN deserves a "like.

I find it very refreshing to see that people still can agree on some things, giving hope for the future.
This was beyond Inspired. Those young men chose to play for this courageous team. Truly a remarkable team. And all who work with them. They have taught me a lesson about Faith and courage. Just Remarkable. ❤️❤️❤️❤️🌹
Made me cry..so inspiring to watch, how they persevered.

I love this so much the power of team work and brotherhood
That's great & the kind of news we need right now! 🧡
That's awesome I'm happy for them... I felt sorry for deaf people until I got deaf friends. I learned quickly they are just as able as anyone and more determined than most...
Massive respect for these players. 💪
2 seniors ya they will be back next year. With even more experience and talent.
beautiful, we need more feel good stories in these horrible times!
This is what dreams are made of real storyline like this team deaf and (REALLY) showing with hard practice any thing can be possible.....A real inspiration to all fighting like them and so many others out there .....👌👌👌💥💥💥💥💥🙏🙏🙏🙏
They are a good team PERIOD super inspirational glad those high school kids have a great team to support 🙌🏾
This need to be a movie about this team. They are awesome.
Wow that's amazing oh, I would love to see more about how they communicate and play
This is amazing
That is awesome! CONGRATULATIONS YOU GUYS!😃
This is the kind of stuff I like to watch , good luck ,I wonder if the quarter back does that thing with his hands to calm down the crowd probably not necessary
That is how you defy All Odds and try your best to become a true inspiration🤔
I bet they would beat the Detroit Lions
Great Story 👏👏👏👏👏
Thank you for showcasing the Deaf football program at the best school for deaf children in california. By the way please insert the captions or subtitles for Deaf community
More great news like this, PLEASE!!
#MuchRespect🙏

So happy for them. 😃
Live by here and when I go to the target across the street I see them working till 8 pm . They put in the work
True Champions are not solely defined by a scoreboard. These guys are Champions in life. And life is the biggest game there is.

Yass boys im so proud of ya’ll i cried
Wow wow so amazing this is brilliant wow god bless them best of luck in future

Way To Go Proud of you all players #DEAFFOOTBALL
You do realize that you just posted about a deaf football team without captions on the video.. making it completely inaccessible for deaf people.. Disappointing, and quite frankly, embarrassing for you. Do better please.
Hats off boys!🔥
The Texas school of the deaf also won the state championship a few years ago!!
This is cool! ^^
Congratulations 👏
What a great story! I cannot imagine how hard it is to play football deaf. Think about it. On a hearing team, the QB, can call out signals or change a play at the line - for example a QB is lined up for a running play, but sees a defensive formation that would be vulnerable to a pass - he can't tell his line to switch from run blocking to pass protection - they can't move when they are in their stance, and can't see any signal. It is similar on defense.
Captions are unavailable- come on! Turn auto captions on!
How they hear the whistle then?
I used to play Racket Ball with three deaf friends. The arguments were very interesting! LOL!
The Truce Essence of the Spirit of All Americans! No matter the challenges...'We find a way to get it Done!
Silent snap count is deadly to the defense. They can never get in the rhythm of the offense. Congrats kids!
Hell of a crowd. They're new to 8 man football, they'll be good for a very long time.
#NoExcuses What's the sign language for "F around and find out"?
We scrimmaged a deft team once they use drums to get the snap off.
Keep it up
I bet an "off sides" penalty rarely gets called against these guys.

That's actually true. They rarely have FALSE START penalties because they practice in such a disciplined manner. I don't know if it is true for this team, but many hearing impaired teams use a big loud drum on the sidelines to signal the snap of the ball. The line starts movement on the signal of the drum. kzread.info/dash/bejne/pJ2jtcSRcajRlc4.html

What a great story.. too bad it's not accessible for Deaf or H/H people . There are no captions available or ASL insert?
Deafness only increases visual acuteness to details that people who hear never notice. We hear with our eyes.
House of Gucci is the worse case of American actors with fake accents mocking Italians and they want to win an Oscar for this behavior.
I suppose they don't have any substantial disadvantage so it's only fair they play with everybody else.

cool wanted to see people like me tear it up but i can’t understand because no freaking subtitles. if you’re gonna make videos on deaf people add subtitles so other deaf people can watch.
hell yes !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If the opposing team understands sign language, they are going to know the play.
(Insert Meme) Not gonna lie.. they had us the first half....
Dude gets clobbered at 1:23
I wonder why they need to be seregated from non deaf players though? Surely theres a few players with hearing loss in the NFL

I do not know anything about American football but if i had to compare it with European football i would think it would be very hard to reach a top league in Europe for a deaf player. Even in full stadiums that produce a lot of noise, you can often see that players communicate with each other during play, It can be just a scream to signal when to play the ball. Or a goalkeeper screams to signal his defenders to move out of the way. I am not sure if sound has the same importance in American football as it has in European football lol...so I really would like to see the movie

I just said European football so Americans would understand what game I meant, because the rest of the world calls this beautiful game....Football...and for us the distinction is the word American. I cannot help that the US is the only country in the world that insists to call our sport soccer and their own American game football. I have no idea why your game is called football? they rarely touch the ball with their feet......maybe it is because they run?......I have no idea. No offense meant

@@dyantebrinke6477 no offense taken sir but you forget that you have punt you have extra points and you have field goals all bye the foot remember when American football started they didn't pass the ball so they just ran it and kicked it. In fact field goals were attempted by a dropped ball kick at that time. When you say European football it makes me think of rugby or the old NFL football league that you guys had over there
THEY never had a BASEBALL team because they said it was to DANGEROUS?

What?
They didn't mention that they moved down from 11 man football to 8 man. That is why they started wiinning
Is the field smaller? Is that why the pylons are in the middle of the end zone?
My boy xavier first time championship long time with him
HEY ....NETFLIX.........I really want to see this movie and I do not even like American football

It's fortunate that they can't hear the cries of agony and pain of the children that they hurt. If they did, many would not participate in the violent game. It was developed in an industrial age to teach workers that if a worker is hurt or killed, the line must keep moving and not shut down.

Well, CNN has an audience of literate, educated, non-conspiracy theory believing viewers who want FACTUAL news. Not the audience for the depraved, right-wing, rageful, demeaning, anti-American $#!+ shows designed to be propaganda for gullible fools in the right-wing "news" world. Since fiction is more entertaining than facts and since fear and rage are more easily generated that common sense and understanding, CNN's audience numbers lag behind Fox News. This is also because intelligent people on the left are busy doing critical work to keep the country running while conservatives sit and do nothing but run their mouths.
