Freddie took the 50-cent coin at once.

I used to watch him from my kitchen window．He seemed so small as he played through some tall boys on the playground．The school was across the street from my home and I would often watch the kids as they played during breaks．

I remember the first day when I saw him playing basketball．He ran circles around the other kids．He managed to shoot jump shots from their heads and into the basket．The big boys always tried to stop him but no one could．

One day，I met him and asked him why he practiced so much．Without a moment of hesitation（犹豫）he said，"I want to go to college．The only way I can go is to get a scholarship（奖学金）．I am going to play college basketball．I want to be the best．My daddy told me if the dream is big enough，the facts don't count．"I watched him through junior high school and into senior high school．Every week，he led his school team to victory．

One day in the senior year，I saw him sitting in the grass with head in his arms．I walked across the street and sat down in the cool grass beside him． Quietly I asked what was wrong．"Oh，nothing，"came a soft reply，"I am just too short．"The coach told him that he would probably never get to play for a top team﹣much less offered a scholarship．So he should stop dreaming about college．

He was heartbroken and I felt his disappointment．I asked him if he had talked to his dad about it yet．He told me that his father said those coaches were wrong．They just did not understand the power of a dream．

He told him that if he truly wanted a scholarship and that nothing could stop him except one thing﹣his own attitude（态度）．He told him again，"If the dream is big enough，the facts don't count．"

The next year，as he and his team went to the Northern California Championship game，he was offered a scholarship．Finally，he was going to get the college education that he had dreamed of．
