HARD TO STOP
George Cafego was a splendid halfback during the early days of professional football. He played for the old Brooklyn Dodgers football team. One day in a game against the New York Giants, Cafego brought the ball upfield practically by himself. Just before the half ended, he broke away over left tackle. First one man hit him, then another, but Cagego kept going. Another man hit him and twisted him around, but Cafego kept going. Finally, about five Giants ganged up on him. Still he plowed goalward. At last he started down, just as the timer’s gun exploded. “My soul!” shouted a spectator. “They had to shoot him to stop him!” As George Cagego could not be stopped, so nothing could hinder the Gospel from being proclaimed, “In Jerusalem, and Judea and Samaria, and even to the remotest part of the earth,” (Acts 1:8). Quoted from Living Expectantly, by Brian L. Harbour, (p. 164)
