MANASSAS, Va. -- The Manassas Mutiny Pee Wee football team is heading to Orlando this weekend for the Pop Warner Super Bowl thanks to a couple of Washington Redskins.

 
Jason Taylor surprised the team at its practice at Falls Church High School Wednesday night, delivering a check for $5,000, signing autographs and giving the team of 10-, 11- and 12-year-olds a pep talk.
 
The team was still $5,000 short, though, so when they heard about that, Chris Cooley and his brother and partner-in-blog Tanner matched Taylor's donation.
