Remember that “Invincible” movie with Mark Wahlberg? For those that don’t, it’s an autobiographical piece about Vince Papale. Papale saw his dreams come true when his hard work with the Philadelphia Bell of the World Football League eventually led him to a private workout with the Philadelphia Eagles. Papale would make the team and play three seasons. He was even named to the team’s 75th anniversary team.
Sure, every young boy has dreams of playing for the team he grew up cheering for, but few have the opportunity.
