    I remember waving to him at the back of the ambulance 💔 I cried he was amazing. He is a great kid but this night made me so sad. My sister was his sisters best friend so me and koni would always play toss with me ❤️

    Ahh man Koni, there aren't enough words in the world to describe the inspiration that you have so graciously spread with your story. You give new meaning to my role as a football mama & God bless both of your parents for what they went through. Most of all, God bless you for your relentless strength! NFL or no NFL, you will go places son!

    This video is so inspirational, if I ever think I can't do something I hope someone will call bull. If you can get back on the field after a break and amputated leg I'm 10 months, I think i can do something smaller. I love this video, Knoi Dole you absolutely impress, and inspire me.

    Really touching and moving. Claps for Koni. He did inspire me , but I won't call the sport he played football. Football is sphere in shape.

    • @greysongladney4403
      @greysongladney4403 5 лет назад

      That's the beauty of language....
      Meanings are different from language to language.
      Football here is American football and soccer (which fyi was the original name) is what we call our sphere kicked by a foot sport.
      How about you just enjoy the video and let us call our sports the way we call them, eh?

    Koni made the team at Montana State, and got to play in his first college game last Saturday, a 45-10 win for the Bobcats. He's earned the playing time.

    He is the "excuse eliminator" for his teammates and an everyday inspiration. Kudos and respect to you Koni!
