im autistc - Asperger syndrome please tell me shud i bee nba player or rapper im good at basket ball i am 10 i can can nearly do 3 pointer but im not that good at rhyming please inbox me or coment
This story is so touching, and people who don't understand autism are making comments that he doesn't seem autistic. You would have to be around someone who has autism. The spectrum is so, so wide. My son is autistic and he struggles with language, but he is so sweet, loving, and caring of others. It hurts me to see him pushed aside by people because they don't know how to interact with him. He is sometimes treated like a throw-aside, so yes it warms my heart to see a story like this.
I don't know if I've met people as happy as those "tainted" by autism. So what if they are challenged in ways that others aren't? I see "average" people that struggle with all sorts of things everyday, including me. Struggle is inevitable. But most of the autistic kids I've seen, they don't care about their limitations. They enjoy life more than anyone, and really, what more is there to life then that? Blessings and accomplishments are nothing without happiness.
Relax people the kid is not really that disabled, and the other team didn't try to defend him and just let him shoot so he could feel happy about himself. He just shot a few baskets it's really not anything that great.

@Deasy002 watch watch the J-Mac says on some of the other videos, he knows he's not that disabled he says it himself. The media exaggerated his disability to sell the story to sheep like you.
Let's focus on this awesome young man and his parents, not on the coaching staff.
All coaches are under constant pressure to use players that will be the most successful and win. Maybe this story will insprire them to let others try even though that won't be a popular choice.
@arnejess We didn't vacinate our second child as our first who was vaccinated had allergic reactions with all his immunizations and is now diagnosed with autism. Not taking that risk again
Bet that coach felt like a retard for not putting him into the game years earlier. Who wants to bet Jason was limited ONLY by the myth that he was "supposed" to be limited, not by any actual limitation?!
We need to get off hamstringing kids by using titles to make ourselves feel better.
@mowriter A friendly request you not use the word "retard." Those of us who work with people like Jason, and others with physical or mental disabilities find this word to be highly offensive. I'm sure you didn't mean to offend, but if you should ever encounter a person like Jason in your life please know that language can help or hurt.
@GoodwillHeartland : I appreciate the comment - please read my comment: I was calling the COACH that. NOT the kid who obviously is HIGH FUNCTIONING. Certainly I'm not going to call Jason that name.
@mowriter Sorry my comment was confusing - my point was that using this word to describe anyone for any reason is something we are trying to put an end to. No question your intentions were the best.
@GoodwillHeartland Appreciate that. This must be one of the more polite disagreements on youtube...ever (LOL). Couldn't imagine being a jerk to Goodwill folks (LOL again).
@linkenski Feel bad huh? Autism People are born different - that's all they are intelligent - capable and loving human beings... why would anyone feel bad for them... different isn't a bad thing... normal people scare me -watch the movie.... feel bad for people that have negative feelings about autism... they are the ones with a disability....
@vialisa When people say they feel bad about someone being or recently diagnosed with Autism, the idea isn't that they feel sorry for an Austic person being who they are, it's that they feel sorry for what they have to go through in terms of social life and the many challenges they face such as bullying and teasing.
This sucks and is a media circus that neglects many facts about this story that would take away from the perceived "achievement" of the j-mac and this douchey coach.
What the eff is wrong w/ you?!?!?!?!? The kid was born with a disability, it doesnt make him any different from you or me. That lady was explaining a story about her son, thats a terrible thing to say. If anything you should be the one to go somewhere and get out of here, you sick person.
Wow how amazing...I am a mother of a 9 yr old son named Sabastian he is a very low functioning autistic child. I love my son more than life itself, but even so I often find myself crying for him an the challenges he faces. It's nice to see such a great story an for people to get the chance to understand our children who are so special. Sad but a lot of times people don't try to get to know children like ours....if they did they would find that it's a blessing an they have no need to fear it.
@oPhatal - You are begging on your hands and knees for autistic people to bring a fucking riffle and blow out your fucking brains all over the fucking walls!
@JonniDDR Good for you. People are so naive of Jason. People worship him as a hero? For doing what? The people who like him simply are losers who can't stand the facts or anyone's statements but themselves. I need you to get a few friends on youtube so they can also dislike this load of rubbish. Tell them to get different accounts everyday so the number of dislikes can go up.
@syzygy1011 It's about time someone was able to see this story for the half-true media circus it is. Good for little J-Mac he scored a few baskets (undefended) but at what cost? Instead of learning how to read or do math or do anything useful this jackwagon shot baskets all day long. What kind of parents would encourage this? I would tell him to get a book or help him learn some manners, because he has none.
@JonniDDR Thank you. All this is is a media circus. He made a few baskets, so what. Why does he go on SportsCenter. This has been my argument. Jason doesn't have a job, or home. 99% of the schools in America wouldn't have let him play anyway because of his grades. They left him unguarded. I could make 6 3s out of 12 tries. I went 8-10 guarded. If I got this type of special treatment, I would be going to the moon. Why do people worship him as a hero. He's not a hero. He's only a retarded teenager
@syzygy1011 Actually he does have a job, sometimes schools hire him to come into the school for the day and roam around acting like a douche bragging about this "magical" game. His other job is at Wegman's putting cakes on a shelf. What a piece of shit this story is. It stinks. Why does everyone praise this coach, also, the coach is a douchebag he only let the handicapped boy play one time. J-Mac should have got a few minutes in at least 2 or 3 other games.
@JonniDDR Schools let him do that?? Oh good gosh. He goes around to people and talks about his experience? SMH. You've made me madder now. LOL. What was so great about his performance. People have hot streaks. Also, putting cakes on a shelf is not much of a job. Also, I don't know why the coach let him in anyway. I mean, he shouldn't of been playing. I actually compliment the coach for not letting him in the other games. He's not even that good, really. Put a little pressure on him, he air balls
@syzygy1011 Yeah I have heard reports of his school visits, he just kind of wanders around the hallway acting like a big douche and then at the end of the day they let him have some kind of fundraiser / pep-rally basketball game with teachers against students. I disagree about the coach, I think since J-Mac's whole life was basketball he at least deserved some more time. Now what good did that do J-Mac in life? He is still a douche and he still can't really put cakes away properly.
@JonniDDR He spent his whole life shooting baskets, so I guess I can understand why the coach wanted to put him in there. I can compliment the coach for that. He did deserve more time on the floor if he were that good. I'm thinking though that why he didn't was that if you put a hand in his face, he would air ball everything. I can commend the coach for doing that. The coach at least is a good person who helps out the kids. But Jason doesn't do anything in life. Why does he go around to schools?
@syzygy1011 To be honest , I think he goes into schools because a lot of teachers and principals even are idiots like the cheerleaders of this story that comment here on YouTube. So even school principals are fooled by a media circus into thinking this story is really amazing instead of the half-true media farce that glorifies the wrong things.
@JonniDDR SMH. Wow. Even principals can be fooled. A new one for me. LOL. I see why now we have so many sissies on here. All of em' are imbeciles and buffoons. Well, I hope I can convince a few people.
Keep in mind that the other team was instructed by their coach not to defend this kid. They laid off of him and gave him time and open shots. In person this kid is really rude and obnoxious. All he did during his childhood was practice shooting baskets instead of learning manners, math, or anything else important. I think this story is very misguided and glorifies the wrong things.
@JonniDDR You fucken dick! What in hells name if your problem, why the fuck cant you be happy for this guy. Youre fucken goin to hell, why in fucks name would you write shit like that, oh and guess what many professional basket ball players "All he did during his childhood was practice shooting baskets instead of learning manners, math, or anything else important." as you say, god damn dick fucken burn in hell
@tadwight30 how does a kid with autism deserve to get picked on? your comebacks are the stupidest things ive heard. you don't even know how big i am and you being able to beat me up doesn't make you right. you can still be a fucking dumbass that deserves to rot in hell. whether you can beat me up or not doesnt change who YOU are
@tadwight30 i really hope you're just trolling because my cousin doesn't pretend to not be able to talk so that people will "feel sorry" for him. and there's no reason to feel sorry for people with special needs.
jason i saw your inspiratating doccumentery i have a interlectual disability you incourage me so much when i was born doctors said i would never walk talk hear i can walk talk hear i compete in special olympics with medals ribons and had hopes of going to medical school to be a great doctor nadine dambra age 43
Jason I saw your inspirating doccumentery your story helped me succeed as well i too was born with a interlectual disability doctors told me i would never walk talk or hear Im a miracle i run and compete in special olympics and i allways had a dream of going to medical school and been a great doctor sincerly nadine dambra age 43 years old
This is a great video and I posted it on my site for others to see. However, the narrater said he shot 6 3 pointers and then he said he made a total of 20 points...dont add up? does it.
This is an amazing and touching story -- and in addition to Jason, the kids on that team who fed him the ball and the kids in the crowd supporting and cheering him on are all heroes! Well done to all of them.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
This really isn't that impressive, they exaggerate his disability and fail to mention the coaches had an agreement to order the players on the other team not to defend j-mac and give him time to shoot, so he could feel good about himself
sure, but even when unguarded alone in the gym it isn't easy to hit 6 three's in a row. Take the nerves and excitement he must have been feeling and it's a pretty amazing story.
and they put a remote control into the ball so that it could be steered in the basket Who cares what is behind the story - he had an amazing 5 mins and made many people smile
I bet you're the type of guy who loves to make little kids cry - i hope one day you learn to bask in the warmth out of a story - it might help you grow a heart!
omygosh, this is so touching... yes everyone is a human being.. either what their sickness are they still human... way to go Jason... cant beliieve the tears keeps flowing down and down =(
I am Autistic fully Autistic diegnosed with PDD Aspergers
And I am 16 years old I have been misunderstood by some people my Autism it is not like cancer you can do anything with it I have been misunderstood w/ my disability everybody w/ or w/o Autism is just as special = equality DUH! Not so sound rude!
@TonyBaierFan keep it up buddy I too have aspergers but just like u my love for life and movies never put me off for anything less. I have a wonderful GF for a year and a half, have a nephew born a couple of months now, and just like you, ain't no stopping me either.
@TonyBaierFan keep up the good work man i am 34 years old and when i was in high school i swam played football and ran track i have agenesis of the corpus callosum and to this day i play mens league softball and have been since i was in high school i play men's league basketball as well and i coach at the middle school and high school level for basketball and football do i let things stop me hell no i keep working to my goal
@oPhatal No, if anyone, it should be you. Spreading hate around the world and you blame the people who have a life. Another autistic scumbag you are. All autistics are useless scumbags. You have been reported.
@oPhatal The reason why that autistic bitch dropped out is because he wanted people to feel sorry for him. He should hang himself for being autistic. Autistics have no place in American society. Also, you are not spreading a cause but you are spreading hate and discord and you will change your ideals.
@oPhatal Even if that is the case, I would give the faggots a medal. What they did is right. Autistics should have no place in American society. If someone would blow them all up, that would make me happy. The fact that you can't stand us telling real facts about this bullshit story is that you have no lives and are wanting to make yourselves feel better. My life is not revolved youtube, unlike yours, so stop spreading hate around these youtube sites.
@syzygy10111 stfu. What if you had autism or worse, then how would you feel if ppl were takling about killing you because of that. Dont be so heartless and learn to accept ppl for who they are.
@TonyBaierFan , I am a mother of a 13 yr old boy with Aspergers named Ian. (He hates that label!) And I finally got to see this today after finding the book. Your comment is RIGHT on. equality DUH!!! I cried the entire time I read the book and watched this clip. Anything is possible. Achieve your dreams!
Don't pay attention to the ones who can't do anything more than call people names or hurt people. Why act like that? They should see how it makes them look. Someday, they'll need friends, when they have some need they can't change.
Jason's and Eric's stories - that's what it's all about. Awesome, just awesome. Autism (or any other condition) does not make a person less able or less of a person. It only means you have to find ways around the limits. Show the world.
my gosh, some of you are so ignorant. are you seriously calling this boy the "retard"? wow wow wow. i dont know who some of you think you are. this is a heartwarming story about a nice boy. get over yourselves. some people can be such idiots. this may not be a big deal to some of you, but for this boy it was, and i dont get how you cant be happy for him?
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
I am not anti-handicapped, I just think when you meet this douche and look at the facts, this just is not that incredible. Good on him that he made a few shots undefended but instead of just shooting baskets all the time he should have been learning manners and learning how to read, now that would be something.
yaa remeber this 'retard' is autistic. let's see you shoot 6 for 8 with 4:19 left in the last game of the year in a highly intense game...u should go die now u rude fuck!! good job jason don't let fucking dumb-asses like this keep u down.
JonniDDR, I notice your profile is anti many things. I suggest you move anti-handicapped to the top of your list. It's a shame your purported sense of social justice doesn't extend to people with disabilities. Like so many who claim to want better for humanity, you actually hate people. I suspect it is simply self-loathing turned outward.
Understandable, there is much about you to loathe.
dude why must there always be spineless mindless dicks on youtube? the dude has a brain disorder, he's not like you. get the fuck off, people like you fail in life. And i bet that's the case cos ur getting fucked up the ass by some random dude you don't know by the name of earl right at this very moment i type this so gtfo.
I was at a church camp and we got into small groups of 3, my friend and I invited this boy into our group. His name was Ben. We knew he seemed shy but we thought he was just shy. Later another friend we had met through the camp talked about how this boy insisted on staying in his cabin and read. He said he depressed the cabin. We thought of ben and when we asked what his name was, we found out it was Ben. We went to see him and talked to him. We became his friend.
We got this poor boy to smile, and laugh some too. We made his day full of cheer, instead of him sitting on his bed all day alone. When came was over the next day, we saw him when we were all leaving, we walked over to him to say bye. And gave him a hug. He smiled real big. His smile made our day just as we made his. In the car ride home, we found out he was autistic. This affected my friend and I so much. We just hoped everyone could be so giving and loving to all.
NO CHILD IS A RETARD...the only retards would be the ppl who are calling children retards..its ridiculous and all they lookin for is some attention on some youtube...make ppl lash out and get pissed off...idiots

The Spencerport coach told his players not to defend this kid it was like handicapped basketball for him, if they defended J-mac he would have scored 1 or maybe 2, just remember that
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
This guy isn't even really a retard, he is just mildly screwed up. Rude and arrogant in person and he didn't even treat his "teammates" well after he became "famous". They didn't defend this tard and he had been practicing obsessively shooting a basketball for his whole childhood. I don't think this should be such a media sensation. They DID NOT EVEN TRY TO DEFEND HIM BECAUSE THEY KNEW HE WAS A TARD!
I don't get why people watch such an amazing video and feel as though they should exercise their freedom of speech and write a whole bunch of horrible crap and bad language. Watch the video for what it is, a great video! If you feel the urge, go hang out at the mall and talk trash with your loser friends!

@tadwight30 how does a kid with autism deserve to get picked on? your comebacks are the stupidest things ive heard. you don't even know how big i am and you being able to beat me up doesn't make you right. you can still be a fucking dumbass that deserves to rot in hell. whether you can beat me up or not doesnt change who YOU are

@tadwight30 i really hope you're just trolling because my cousin doesn't pretend to not be able to talk so that people will "feel sorry" for him. and there's no reason to feel sorry for people with special needs.

This really isn't that impressive, they exaggerate his disability and fail to mention the coaches had an agreement to order the players on the other team not to defend j-mac and give him time to shoot, so he could feel good about himself

sure, but even when unguarded alone in the gym it isn't easy to hit 6 three's in a row. Take the nerves and excitement he must have been feeling and it's a pretty amazing story.

@syzygy10111 First of all I dont think that so stop assuming things.
I just think should have more respect. Som autistic kid dropped out of my school because of bullying. Im not spreading hate I'm spreading a cause
oPhatal 1 year ago
@oPhatal The reason why that autistic bitch dropped out is because he wanted people to feel sorry for him. He should hang himself for being autistic. Autistics have no place in American society. Also, you are not spreading a cause but you are spreading hate and discord and you will change your ideals.
syzygy10111 1 year ago
@syzygy10111 NO he was forced to drop out because of faggots like you.
oPhatal 1 year ago
@oPhatal Even if that is the case, I would give the faggots a medal. What they did is right. Autistics should have no place in American society. If someone would blow them all up, that would make me happy. The fact that you can't stand us telling real facts about this bullshit story is that you have no lives and are wanting to make yourselves feel better. My life is not revolved youtube, unlike yours, so stop spreading hate around these youtube sites.
syzygy10111 1 year ago
@syzygy10111 stfu. What if you had autism or worse, then how would you feel if ppl were takling about killing you because of that. Dont be so heartless and learn to accept ppl for who they are.

Don't pay attention to the ones who can't do anything more than call people names or hurt people. Why act like that? They should see how it makes them look. Someday, they'll need friends, when they have some need they can't change.

Jason's and Eric's stories - that's what it's all about. Awesome, just awesome. Autism (or any other condition) does not make a person less able or less of a person. It only means you have to find ways around the limits. Show the world.

I am not anti-handicapped, I just think when you meet this douche and look at the facts, this just is not that incredible. Good on him that he made a few shots undefended but instead of just shooting baskets all the time he should have been learning manners and learning how to read, now that would be something.

JonniDDR, I notice your profile is anti many things. I suggest you move anti-handicapped to the top of your list. It's a shame your purported sense of social justice doesn't extend to people with disabilities. Like so many who claim to want better for humanity, you actually hate people. I suspect it is simply self-loathing turned outward.
Understandable, there is much about you to loathe.

I was at a church camp and we got into small groups of 3, my friend and I invited this boy into our group. His name was Ben. We knew he seemed shy but we thought he was just shy. Later another friend we had met through the camp talked about how this boy insisted on staying in his cabin and read. He said he depressed the cabin. We thought of ben and when we asked what his name was, we found out it was Ben. We went to see him and talked to him. We became his friend.

We got this poor boy to smile, and laugh some too. We made his day full of cheer, instead of him sitting on his bed all day alone. When came was over the next day, we saw him when we were all leaving, we walked over to him to say bye. And gave him a hug. He smiled real big. His smile made our day just as we made his. In the car ride home, we found out he was autistic. This affected my friend and I so much. We just hoped everyone could be so giving and loving to all.

This guy isn't even really a retard, he is just mildly screwed up. Rude and arrogant in person and he didn't even treat his "teammates" well after he became "famous". They didn't defend this tard and he had been practicing obsessively shooting a basketball for his whole childhood. I don't think this should be such a media sensation. They DID NOT EVEN TRY TO DEFEND HIM BECAUSE THEY KNEW HE WAS A TARD!
