#Cowboys star @TankLawrence , at his charity event, reacts to backlash after snubbing young Giants fan. "The kid will be okay, trust me. If not, I"ll write a public apology for hurting his feelings. Other than that, hopefully he gets a DeMarcus Lawrence jersey for Christmas."

This sweet little girl will be one of 23 pediatric patients who will model at the upcoming Children's Cancer Fund “A Knight to Remember" Gala in Dallas. Dak Prescott and Troy Aikman are honorary chairmen. She yells, “Dak!” and goes to give him a big hug on stage. How cute. 💕
