Not sure who has seen this yet- pretty cool story.

A bullying victim was paid a visit on The View by his some of his idols from the Philadelphia Eagles- Desean Jackson, Todd Herremans and Jamaal Jackson. For what it's worth, the bullying incident was pretty freakin bad from what I've seen.

The boy's reaction when he see's Desean Jackson is priceless. I always hate those videos when a child meets his/her sports idol and has a "blaah" reaction...

Here's the entire story:

Hats off to the Eagles players for what they did. To take time out of their lives to visit this young boy will do wonders for the battle he is fighting. It lets him know that people care and are aware of the bullying that unfortunately exists in the world today.

I think I just became an Eagles fan!

Anyone else get shivers when the Eagles players walked on stage and the kid saw them? Oooh boy, I love moments like this, so heartwarming.

Don't get carried away, unless you have 3 assault convictions you're not even eligible.

Great video, glad to see the look on the kids face when he saw Desean. Also the media attention around this because of the initial video should at least help raise awareness to this issue. Good on the Eagles for stepping up like this!

I don't know, I think its great and everything, but did the Eagles have to rip off their junk before or after the show.

Haha. I thought you meant idols from The Eagles.

I was like dude when did Desean Jackson replace Don Henley?

Great for the kid, and it also must be extremely rewarding to be a person that has the power to affect people like that so positively.
